Marketing to Authors
---for Virtual Assistants

Find Your Niche Helping Authors
Tame the Publishing Process

Presented by CVAC and AuthorSmart.com

With about 150,000 new books being published each year, if you haven’t worked with an author, but you work with speakers, coaches, attorneys, or entrepreneurs, chances are, one of these people will become an author and will be interested in getting your help along the way.

Many of the skills you have as a VA are directly transferable to the specific kind of tasks needed and valued by authors as they make their way through the publishing process. If you find this prospect interesting, you may decide to make working with authors a niche or specialty for your practice, as many VA’s have.

The first question we hear from someone considering adding to their virtual skills to work with authors, or making working with authors their niche, is:

 “How do I know I can find clients if I become an author’s assistant?”

In this session we cover:
•    Where to find authors who need VA’s,
•    How to market to authors, and
•    What VA skills authors are looking for.

Also, there is a special note-taking handout created especially for this session that will leave you with many take-aways you can put into practice as soon as the class is over.
