Sponsors of the Rocky Mountain Writer's Summit™
The Rocky Mountain Writer's Summit™ brings
together all the resources every author needs to succeed.
Connect with Author Entrepreneurs as they launch their new business identity.
Everyone who writes a book will create a business. This opens up great opportunity for those businesses who cater to the small business or cottage industry.
Home offices need to be designed. Computers/Laptops need to purchased. Software needs to be purchased. Office furniture needs to be purchased. Dedicated new phone and fax lines need to be added. Separate bank accounts and credit cards need to be opened in the name of the business. Insurance might need to be purchased. Printing promotional and marketing products need to be designed and printed (business cards, bookmarks).
Experts need to be hired, such as editors, graphic designers, web designers, publicists, printers, publishers, agents, photographers, social media experts and more.
Relationships with businesses such as book distributors and book merchants need to be cultivated. New accounts need to be set up.
Organization and education is the key.
Thousands of authors will review the website WritersSummit.com and more than 1000 will walk through the doors on the day of the Writers Summit in their area. This gives all sponsors a chance to connect with these entrepreneurs who are eager to learn, 'do it right', set up their new businesses and enter into a grand new adventure - that of the Author-Entrepreneur.

Writer's Summit Tip #9: Good book reviews are like gold - no matter who they're from, but they need to be managed wisely.
ONLY celebrity or highly credentialed reviewers go on the cover... Your most recognizable name goes on the front cover. Then if you have room on the back cover after the synopsis and abbreviated bio, put another review from a recognized source.
If you have 'reader's reviews' - they belong on your website, they deserve a blog entry recognizing their comments and commenting back, they can have a place inside your book in the first couple of pages, they definitely belong on amazon.com and bn.com and any other online book seller you are using. Amazon.com has taught us well that referrals are a great way to sell, so they highlight the reader's reviews and they really do wield buying power!
Another place to keep the reader's reviews is in front of you - pasted on your office walls. Keep these where you can see them and stay encouraged and inspired that your work is making a difference! It really does help - in many ways.
