- The Book It Summit is a public event that’s completely free to attend. Because we’re not charging for tickets, we have a limited marketing budget and are looking for partners to share their content and promote the event to their tribe.
- The event consists of three days of sessions from our partners in Zoom meeting mode.
- Partners can provide either a live or pre-recorded presentation on a topic that will benefit our audience of business owners and professionals seeking to grow their business by publishing a book.
- We have space for eighteen 30 minute Speaker sessions (6 per day) - interview or presentation style - at no cost for you. You can offer a free gift to the audience. Any free gift needs to be offered with a SkillBites affiliate link.

Sponsors will get top billing on the Summit registration page, greater promotion, a 50 minute keynote speaking slot, their choice of the time slot for their interview or presentation, the opportunity to do a sales pitch to a paid program during their talk and the opportunity to include a gift in the VIP package. Sponsors need to provide us with an affiliate link to their free and paid offers, and we'll agree on the commission depending on the paid offer. If interested, please contact Judy (judy@skillbites.net) for more details.
To ensure we’re providing as much value as possible, we’re requesting the following from our partners:
- Please ensure your topic is relevant to the audience and the theme of the event. If you have content that is not relevant to business owners and professionals seeking to publish a business book, please ensure you modify it so that it’s directly relevant.
- So that we can reach as many people as possible, we are asking all speakers to promote the event to their email and social media followers at least three times each. We’ll provide you with graphics, copy, and a personalized link. Ideal promotional times are:

The 3 Keys to Writing a GREAT Book You Can Be Proud OfWeston Lyon Founder of Plug & Play PublishingWithout exception, every single author-in-the-making I've ever personally helped write a book is afraid of ONE thing...
Writing a "bad" book!
In other words, they were afraid of writing a subpar or inferior book that makes them look bad to their readers.
It's understandable. After all, if you write a "bad" book, then your readers may see you as unprofessional and you'll lose your credibility with them. Or they may see you as a "fraud" - not the expert they thought you were.
In addition, if you write a book that bores your reader or isn't well-written, then your reader will either put your book down and forget about you. Or worse, your readers will tell everyone about you and your shoddy, second-rate book. (Remember, bad news travels faster than good news.)
So while it's important that you get your book done and into your prospects' hands, it's even more critical that you focus on writing a GREAT book!
A book so good that your readers WILL see you as the expert and authority you are.
A book so good that your readers WILL tell everyone they know and your message will spread like wildfire.
And a book so good that your readers WILL desperately want to take the next step with you and your business.
So that's what we're going to talk about in this presentation. The keys to writing a GREAT book! A book you can be proud of and a book you're eager to get into other peoples' hands.
More specifically, we'll explore...
- The 3 Key Fundamentals YOU MUST FOLLOW in order to write a GREAT book!
- The #1 Mistake ALL first-time (and even veteran) authors make that sabotages their success!
- 5 Easy Tips that will make YOUR Book UNFORGETTABLE and SHARE-WORTHY!
So, are you ready to write a book you can be proud of?
If so, then JOIN ME on The Book It Summit on Wednesday, March 23rd!
I'll see you there!
Dedicated to your success as an authority!
