Poetizer Launches Poetizer Publishing, an Easier,
More Eco-friendly Publishing Platform
PRAGUE, Oct. 5, 2022
/PRNewswire/ -- While traditional publishing has relied on the cost
savings of printing in bulk and overseas, the impact is a heavier
carbon footprint and more waste in landfills. Poetizer, the social
media platform exclusively for poetry is not only giving people a
voice through the healthy expression of poetry, but also a
supportive community, and a way to earn additional income through
its new eco-friendly publishing platform, Poetizer Publishing. The
company wants to be part of the climate crisis solution and make it
easier for users to become published poets.
In the past decade, and especially during the pandemic, poetry
has had a resurgence in what some are calling a full-on
renaissance, most recently fueled by the pandemic. Launched in
2018, the social media startup Poetizer, the first social media
platform dedicated to all things poetry, continues to grow despite
little to no promotion. Its 330,000, primarily GenZ users in 120
countries are mostly located in the U.S., where people are looking
for more positive social channels and alternatives for community
and healthy self-expression of shared feelings around life,
societal issues, economic and global concerns. Now, Poetizer wants
its users to become published authors.
Unless you're an established, bankable writer, a majority of
writers, in all genres, have always had a difficult time getting
published and earning a good income. In August 2022, Poetizer Publishing launched the
most eco-friendly publishing platform with the goal of allowing
anyone to become published poets and generate real income by
selling books on its platform with a built-in community of poetry
lovers.
Lukas Sedlacek, Poetizer CEO,
says that traditional publishing is antiquated and often done in
another country in large quantities and then shipped to a country
where books are then shipped again to readers or stores. Unsold
books typically end up in landfills.
"The publishing industry is the world's third largest industrial
greenhouse emitter. We believe that we can reduce waste and be a
more environmentally responsible company by changing the way books
are printed and delivered," said Sedlacek. "By rethinking the
process, we can greatly reduce the waste and carbon footprint of
publishing by printing on demand closest to the final point of
delivery."
Launched in August 2022, Poetizer
Publishing provides an easy all-in-one tech solution for authors
that lets them easily and quickly have their work formatted,
illustrated, printed, shipped and sold and giving authors a way to
market their books to their followers on Poetizer and making it
available in its online Bookstore.
"Authors in the US are typically impoverished with 80% earning
less than sufficient income," said Sedlacek. "Poetizer Publishing
is the easiest to use platform for self-publishing authors and we
can offer them the ability to earn more income than other
platforms."
He added that the complexities of self-publishing platforms
today coupled with the toll the current publishing process takes on
the environment, the industry is ripe for new innovation that is
easier, more eco-friendly and sustainable.
In recognition of World Mental Health Day Monday, October 10, 2022, Poetizer is encouraging
everyone to write at least one poem to experience the positive
effect writing poetry can have on mental and emotional health.
