Are you an entrepreneurial author? Are you a speaker, coach, consultant, or business owner using a book to share your expertise, build relationships, and generate revenue?

If so, the right conversation can save you time, help you avoid costly mistakes, and introduce you to opportunities you may not have considered.

At Author Connections, you’ll meet other entrepreneurial authors and trusted Hub Partners who understand that publishing a book is only the beginning.

GUEST SPEAKER: Steve Sarner
TOPIC: Optimize Your Amazon Listing
Your book's Amazon page works as a sales page, a first impression, and often the first time a prospect meets you.

Many authors set it up once at launch and never revisit it.
In this 15-minute session, Steve Sarner, who spent eight years at Amazon Books, will walk through the listing elements that help turn browsers into buyers. The more readers your book reaches, the more chances you have to meet your next client.

You'll learn:

• Which parts of your Amazon listing matter most and how to improve them without starting over, including the title, subtitle, description, categories, and keywords
• How your reviews and listing quality affect everything else you do, including advertising
• How to use your Amazon Author Central page to strengthen your book's presence on Amazon

Steve will also touch on Goodreads, the world's largest community of readers wholly owned by Amazon and more important than ever for your book.

Your book can strengthen your authority, expand your reach, and grow your speaking business when it serves a clear purpose.

Join NSA Philadelphia for a 90-minute virtual program for professional and aspiring speakers considering, writing, or promoting a book. Book launch strategist Robbie Samuels will lead conversations with speaking-business expert Lois Creamer, audiobook expert David H. Lawrence XVII, business book ghostwriter Emily Crookston, and writing coach and publisher Kim Eley.

Learn how to connect your book to your keynote and services, choose a focused idea and reader, produce a book that reflects your professional brand, and decide whether to narrate your own audiobook. The program concludes with audience Q&A featuring all four experts.
Whether your book is an idea or already published, leave with practical ways to make it a more intentional part of your speaking business.
