CREATING YOUR
PUBLISHING STAR POWER
Be There…
March 26-28, 2009
Bumpy economic times create phenomenal opportunities. Your books, your work, fill a need. The 2009 CIPA College is the ideal place to create and fine tune your platform for the Who, the Why, the What, the When and the Where for your book.
Are you ready to strategize how you are going to move/sell books in these challenging times? How are you going to drive a buyer to place that they can find your book? The CIPA College Faculty will deliver all the “Ws” and much, much more.
Learn from Fern Reiss (The Publishing Game), John Kremer (1001 Ways to Market Your Books), Eric Kampmann (Midpoint Trade distributors), Jeff Keen (USA Book Awards), Margaret Coel (NY Times bestselling author), Marcella Smith (Director of Small Press Division Barnes & Noble) and a dozen plus more publishing professionals.
I wouldn’t miss CIPA College…and neither should you…unless you don’t want to sell your books. This is the year to Create Your Publishing Power. Your choice, you choose.
