Who is this for?
Small or new publishers, those seeking to start a publishing company, and service providers
who assist authors and want to be educated in supporting them further.

What are we covering?
Get clear on the MUST KNOWs and the MUST NOTS to avoid common mistakes when you’re learning the ropes! We’ll be providing detailed training on some key pieces of production of the book, but also digging into some next level marketing. Some of these topics may seem basic - but it’s based on mistakes we’ve seen over and over - even from publishers who’ve been doing this awhile.  If you have a new or growing team, this is the perfect resource to get them up to speed, saving you time and energy!
