Would you like meeting planners to call you, rather than the other way around?

Would you like MORE exposure, MORE credibility and MORE speaking opportunities?

Would you like to know how to turn your book into a profit center?

IN THIS SESSION:
Meeting planners want to hire the expert—the most knowledgeable person on a subject. The expert is the author of the book.

Your book will bring you more exposure, more credibility and more speaking opportunities. And, a book provides you with an additional profit center (some speakers actually make more money on their back-of-the-room sales than on speaking.)

You will discover how to:

• Ensure there is a market for your project
• Find time to write.
• Find material to fill your manuscript — without leaving home
• Break your project down into easy-to-attack chunks
• Get illustrations – practically free
• Find relevant quotations & stories
• Get the project ready for the printer
• Make the choice between looking for an agent or publisher and publishing yourself
