New England Publishing Conference 2014

Join IPNE for our 4th annual publishing conference. This year we are honored to have Champlain College Publishing Initiative students and faculty offering workshops. This promises to be an exciting and educational conference.

Workshops and sessions for new publishers to experienced publishers include Publishing 101; Tom Woll on Taking Advantage of Changing Markets: How to Run Your Own Stimulus Program For Financial Success;  Understanding and Using Metadata and BISAC with Angela Bole of IBPA, Brian Jud's Selling Anywhere but Bookstores, Social Media Marketing, Internet Book Tours, Digital Media, Traditional Marketing, Editing, Web design, Book trailers, and more.

Rates for members, and for affiliated groups (IBPA and other IBPA affiliates, for example) are just $150 for the two days--a small fraction of what you would pay at other educational and networking events for publishers.
