Kindlepreneur
If you have looked into becoming an author, then you have probably heard of Kindlepreneur. There is a reason. It is a powerhouse of author assiting services, most of which are free. There are such things as barcode generators and sales caluculators.
There are paid services too and I can tell you that I have found each one I have purchased has been worth every cent

It is a lifetime purchase you can use across different platforms

A free version can be used and it was for a while until Captain Jess was writing more.
Atticus
Atticus is the easy to use formatting tool that makes a book seem finished.
Formatting seems dauting at first but Atticus makes it easy. There are plenty of tutorial videos too.
