My August BIG annual eBook Workshop is coming up, in Vancouver, Canada.
Thinking about publishing on Amazon Kindle? Yes, you can create your own eBooks!

(An overhead projector and live Internet connection are required for all presentations. If this is an issue, please call and alternate arrangements can usually be made.)
20-Minute Talk: Is That an eBook In Your Pocket, Or Are You Just Happy to See Me?
The old adage still applies, “Publish or Perish”. But today, it means something totally new, accessible, and best of all, FUN! I’ll show you how to turn a simple 10-page eBook that you make yourself into a fantastic wave of new business that can last for years.
Long Talks (1 hour or less)
1) eBooks – The Next Generation
We are on the cusp of a new generation of digital publishing. One that takes advantage of all that new media has to offer, and throws off the restrictions and dated labels of the past. Learn why delivering your content via eBook might be not just the fastest route to market, but also the cheapest and the least amount of headaches. Let me show you some spectacular examples of what’s being done in the market right now, and why it’s far more accessible than you might think.
2) You’ve Written an eBook – Now What?
If you’re thinking about writing an eBook, but you’re not sure what to do with it after it’s produced, here’s your roadmap. We’ll talk specifics about how to get your eBook out there and selling. We’ll perform some live marketing actions during the talk, and I’ll share some recent case studies that illustrate what to do, and what not to do. You’ll leave feeling like you know what to do, not just tomorrow, but tonight, to help your project get off the ground quickly.
3) Affiliate Marketing – How To Sell in Your Sleep
Have you heard stories of a lone eBook Author that’s making hundreds of thousands of dollars off a single title? They do this by leveraging the networks of others – and I don’t mean at a wine and cheese party. What if you could have other people selling your products for you, all day and all night, the world over? It’s not a pipe dream: it’s the reality for many of your competitors. Let me show you the guts of a basic affiliate marketing campaign. Learn what you need to get started, and how to adapt what you’re already doing to this new model.
