Here’s a bit of information to help you better understand the purpose of the event and what it provides:
Not sure how to polish up your pitch to attract an agent, publisher, editor or publicist?
Invest in getting trained to properly pitch your project to the industry decision makers.
The Next Bestseller™ Training and Live Pitching Event is the first concentrated training where you will get the most compelling and closely guarded techniques.
After this event, you’ll never pitch your book the same way again.
The keys you are going to learn during this training are the most powerful and complete methods for successfully approaching these industry professionals with your work.
It can take authors like you years to successfully reach them, if ever, and I have never presented it like this before.
You will:
• Discover how to successfully craft your pitch into one minute or less…
• Understand why your hook must be compelling while still being quick and concise…
• Polish up your positioning and readiness to approach an agent…
• Learn what you are saying to agents without saying a word with your presentation and approach
• Get clear strategies to capture the attention of an agent as told to you by agents and industry experts…
• Design your pitch to engage agents for book publishing, Hollywood and publicity at the same time…
• Reduce your rejections and lack of response to agent submissions…
• Increase interest in your books and projects from agents, publishers, editors and publicists…
• Bump up your career as a successful writer with the right approach to pitching your projects…
• And much, much more
The Next Bestseller™ Event provides access to seasoned industry experts who will train you to pitch your project and how to fashion your hooks to engage the attention of these decision makers.
You will have access to:
– Katharine Sands, Literary Agent with the Sarah Jane Freymann Agency & a popular speaker at writers conferences. She is also an author herself and the agent provocateur of “Making the Perfect Pitch: How to Catch a Literary Agent’s Eye,” a collection of pitching wisdom from leading literary agents.
– Lane Shefter Bishop, a producer, an Emmy award-winning Director, & the founder of Vast Entertainment. She has spent nearly 18 years working in the industry. She has the answer to the number one question she is often asked by authors “Can my book be adapted for television and/or film?”
– Tom Martin, a publicist who used to be a TV producer & journalist. With over 20 years of experience as a television journalist and producer and more recently as a publicist, Tom has worked alongside popular media personalities Charles Kuralt, Charlie Rose, Diane Sawyer and others. He knows whether a book has a hook for the media – or not.
– Beth Kallman Werner, book sales & marketing expert who is the founder of Author Connections and the recent former director of sales & marketing for Kirkus Reviews & Kirkus Discoveries (Kirkus Media). She has spent the last two decades in brand marketing, multi-media advertising and business development.
– Plus an image consultant and presentation consultants will also provide insights to polish up your appearance and approach so your pitch is professional from head to toe and expressed congruently from the inside out.
WHY I CREATED IT
I created The Next Bestseller™ as a response to something I saw missing in the vast publishing industry conferences, seminars, trainings and resources we’re all providing. It is something that has been repeated over and over again by agents and publishers that I have interviewed on my show and reiterated by professionals I’ve spoken with across the industry.
The time has come to provide a specific resource that is focused on training authors to present their books properly and professionally to the decision makers so everyone can succeed. Agents and publishers are still hungry for good books to sell and publish. Authors want to get published with their carefully crafted books that they’ve spent quality time writing. If the only thing standing between you and the agents who want your book is your pitch, maybe The Next Bestseller™ is the piece you’ve been missing.
I’m excited to be able to invite you to attend The Next Bestseller™.
The professionals I’ve asked to join me are busy with their businesses of selling and promoting books. I’ve asked them to take time out to work directly with you on your pitch and the presentation of your book during The Next Bestseller™ program. Through the incredible access and powerful teaching it offers, there’s no other event quite like it!
The Next Bestseller™…Will it be you?
