Quote:  “A great book concept will do a lot of the work for you and end up marketing themselves, so it really does start there.”
Chad R. Allen

We recorded this podcast before COVID was well into affecting the speaking world, but the information shared is even more relevant today than we originally thought it would be!  So many of us have spent some of our “unexpected downtime” writing our next best seller.  On this episode of The Wealthy Speaker Show, we welcome publishing expert, Chad Allen to offer his best advice on getting your book noticed with a great proposal.

Chad Allen is a writer, speaker, editor, and writing coach. A 20-year publishing professional, he has worked with such bestselling authors as Michael Hyatt, Caroline Leaf, Mark Batterson and Phyllis Tickle.  He is the creator of Book Proposal Academy, an online course, blog and BookCamp, a mentoring and community hub for writers. His passion is helping writers get their books into the world.
