About the Author:

The CEO

So who is this CEO? He has been in the publishing industry for over 25 years. He began as an author and has had two books on the New York Times Best-Seller List. He also ran a successful literary agency for eight years, representing several best-selling authors and coaching them to success. He was then hired by one of the top ten largest book publishers, where he has since risen through the ranks to become it's CEO.

That's right! You will be learning exactly how to launch your career as a best-selling author from a man who has arguably more experience in all facets of the book publishing world than anyone. And yes, he really is the CEO of a top-ten book publisher, which is why he has requested to remain anonymous. Of course, if you read between the lines a bit while you're going through the course, we're sure you'll probably figure out who he is. After all, there aren't too many individuals with his unique mix of experiences!

The bottom line is that you will be learning the ins and outs of the publishing industry from two men who really know their stuff.

They will teach you, coach you, encourage you, and direct you on exactly what you need to know and do to get your book on that exclusive list. They will walk you through the process step-by-step, saving you potentially years of setbacks and frustrations. And they know, because they've done it for many, many others — successfully.

Review:

Scott Jeffrey is one of THE main people that coached and guided the success of my very first New York Times Best-Seller. He knows his stuff. Become a Best-Selling Author is an absolute Grand Slam. I only wish I'd had this information 10 years ago. The content is incredible and presented by true experts in the industry.

--Andy Andrews, New York Times Bestselling Author of The Traveler's Gift

Become a Best-Selling Author is a much needed and brilliant compilation of strategies and answers to the questions authors couldn't begin to articulate or investigate for success in publishing.

It will certainly help you first discover what it takes to publish a book and then determine if you've got what it takes. As a national publisher I recommend Become a Best-Selling Author to anyone even remotely interested in achieving their highest potential in publishing.

--Chris Hilicki, Founder of Dalmation Press and Published Author

Become a Best-Selling Author has been the most important resource and guide that I could have ever hoped for on the challenging journey to literary accomplishment. The dialogue is informative, educational and inspiring. I have referred to it countless times to make sure that I am on track and in line with my mission is as an author. This CD set goes beyond the call of duty with marketing insights, publishing know-how and over the top information that will benefit anyone interested in the literary process and how you can make it work for you.

Bottom line: it's a must have in your literary tool kit.

--John St. Augustine, Award-winning talk radio host and author
