On this free training you'll see

The setup behind my books, live on screen.

The 7 seats a publishing house fills for every book. And how I fill all 7 without a big publisher or a vanity press.
ISBNs and copyright, in plain words. What to own, and what never to give away.
KDP and IngramSpark, side by side. How they fit together, and why you press Publish yourself.
How I got a newspaper feature and a bookstore event. The pitches my team drafted for me.
How to spot a vanity press "opportunity". Before it costs you thousands and your rights.
How to set up the same team for yourself. We never write your book. You do. You approve everything.

Then open Q&A. Bring your questions and I'll answer them live. Heads up: the setup I show runs on your own Grok Bot plan.

Meet your publishing team

Seven seats. One bot. You approve.

Every role a publishing house gives an author, working for you. You'll see each one work on my books, live.

This is for you if

You're writing a book, finished one, or already have one out.
You're doing every job yourself and the writing gets the leftovers.
You want real readers and you want to keep your rights.

It's not for you if

You want someone else to write your book for you.
You want to buy fake reviews or fake book club spots.
You want get-rich-quick. No sales promises here.

Your host

Mr B, musician and children's author

I'm a musician. I'm not a publisher. I ran this team on my own two books, and it got me into a bookstore, the newspaper and classrooms. I've toured with DMX, I'm a Grammy voting member, and I'm still independent. Self-published doesn't have to mean alone. Now the team is yours.
