There are many options available for both print and ebook formatting. You can do it yourself and keep control, or you can hire others to do it for you.
Consider cost and timings for publication, as well as options for updates later (as there will be an inevitable typo or two!). You'll need to book formatting in advance as professionals are always busy. Rates may change over time, so please check the formatter's site for up-to-date pricing.
My personal choice for ebook (and some print) formatting is Vellum. It's designed for Mac, but you can also use it on a PC through Mac In Cloud.
It is absolutely brilliant and makes formatting fun! (I never thought I'd say that!) Click here to watch my tutorial on how to use Vellum to format an ebook and a print book.
