Lucky Writers Get Golden Opportunity to Learn How to Approach the Literary and Entertainment Industries with Projects at This Weekend’s Sold Out The Next Bestseller Workshop
“Writers often don’t realize that they will have to answer the question, ‘So, what’s your project about?’ for the rest of their writing careers. To break into the publishing and entertainment industries, writers need to get clear about what their stories, books and projects are about and how to summarize them quickly and concisely in their conversations with literary agents, publishers, producers, Broadway theater developers, and other industry professionals. When done well, the conversation should cultivate interest in you and your project and potentially lead to other opportunities such as speaking appearances and/or deepen business relationships with prospects and clients, not just sell books or your project,” states Jennifer S. Wilkov, Founder of The Next Bestseller Workshop and CEO of Your Book Is Your Hook. “There are a number of ways to craft the conversation and presentation of your project. However, there are so many options that it can become extremely overwhelming and confusing for the writer who often doesn’t feel competent when writing ‘the short stuff’ as a marketer of her or his own projects. A writer with an amazing concept could easily get rejected by the industry or ignored by the audience she or he has targeted when the presentation is not intriguing or engaging. I want to prevent that from happening by educating writers and breaking down the cluttered and often conflicting information they find on the Internet or in other trainings into clear actionable steps they can take to really succeed with their projects.”
The Next Bestseller Workshop weekend is a safe space that provides an intimate environment for writers to get exclusive access to the dream team of industry trainers to help them prepare and practice their presentation and pitch BEFORE they have to talk about their projects with industry professionals and others at conferences, festivals, or in coveted industry individual meetings they land when they are fortunate enough to get one.
“Who better to help a writer with this painful process than industry professionals currently working in the literary and entertainment industries?!” says Wilkov.
The Next Bestseller Workshop has been featured in Entrepreneur Magazine in their “Write A Book” category in the 2016 article entitled “How to Pitch a Best-Seller Idea” which included a video (https://www.entrepreneur.com/video/286631) about the benefits of the workshop and interviews with Wilkov, featured trainers and industry professionals, complete with advice from them live from the 2016 event in New York City.
The Next Bestseller Workshop will include discussions about literary professionals and publishing, film, television, public speaking, public relations, social media, search engine optimization and more. The writers will also present their projects to an elite panel of industry professionals from the literary, entertainment and theater communities and receive specific feedback about their individual presentations so they can improve them.
