Recommended Printers for the
Rocky Mountain Writer's Summit™

Printing the book is just one aspect of getting your book into the hands of readers.

Printing postcards, business cards, flyers and banners are also part of creating the business presence you need to become successful in the business of writing.

Hiring a printer can be intimidating if you haven't done it before. The terminology is second nature to them and they will ask you to fill out forms using their terminology. A simple misinterpretation of any one of those parameters can result in a botched job or wasted time and/or money.

There will be one printer presenting at the Rocky Mountain Writer's Summit and its representatives will be there to answer your questions and give you valuable insight into the printing needs for your project.

Writer's Summit Tip #36:


A speaking coach is a useful service for many authors, as publicly promoting an author's book is an important part of helping to get that book into the hands of readers.


Finding a good speaking coach can be a very cost-effective investment towards greater profits for an author, especially if, like many people, you have a fear of public speaking. The right coach can help an author thrive in front of audiences, turning the task of publicly speaking about their book into a joy.

Writer's Summit Tip #25:

Commercially publishing a book takes between 12-24 months AFTER you sign a contract with a publisher. If your subject is more timely than that, you need to seriously consider self-publishing or partner publishing your book.

Many non-fiction books are quite timely. Waiting for 2 years to get a book on the topic out on the market could significantly damage your chances for success. There are many ways to publish your work that gets your information to the market much more quickly.
