RAVE REVIEWS
"Learning from Bart Smith is like learning from a self-publishing training on steroids! No, really! He's fast, he's sharp, he's creative and he helped me with my networking book. I won't trust anyone else when it comes to this topic." – Janice S., Author/Coach, Los Angeles, CA
“When Bart told me he wrote HOW TO PREPARE, PITCH & BECOME A TV GUEST in one week I was blown away. I’ve worked in the TV industry for over two decades and I couldn’t write a book that fast, let alone anyone else I know in the industry! Bart, I’m so glad you’re telling us your how-to self-publishing secrets finally!!!” – Jamie B., TV Client Relations & Industry Analyst, Burbank, CA
“I’ve worked with Bart to help me with my book and let me tell you, he knows what he’s doing with his eyes closed. He’s like the book whisperer. He designed my beautiful cover, laid out my book on the inside, helped me with my website, he’s in the process of helping me learn how to record my book … where would I be without this all-in-one book writing/designing mentor. There’s no one like you, Bart.” – Noushin F., Author/Pyschoneurologist, Los Angeles, CA
"I was trying for 3 years to publish my first book, then I met Bart, and his self-publishing knowledge helped me publish it within 30 days. I've published 3 more with his help. Bart, you rock!" – Merlin H., Las Vegas, NV
"Bart's cover design work and page layouts are unmatched. He helped me write 3 books. One of those books, I wrote in 3 days with his Google doc book template." – Chef Lele, Las Vegas, NV
"Bart's Google Doc book template helped me write my Get Speaking Gigs Now book in a single weekend! Literally, I wrote a book in 2 days with Bart's help!"” – Malene G., Author & Real Estate Investor
“I self-published my first book eons ago and when I did I thought I did it right. My book was filled with great content, absolutely, but it wasn’t designed as well as it could have been because I was new at the whole process. Now, when I write books and having known Bart for 15+ years, I don’t hesitate … I go straight to him for self-publishing advice. His knowledge of how books should be self-published are second to none.” – Gabriala B., Author, Online Business Owner
“Bart, years ago, helped me with my book, Interview Tactics. He helped me title it, give it a subtitle and when I didn’t have a cover for it, he created one in minutes! I’ve used his cover design to date and that’s going on almost 20 years! Inside my book, I had about 20 photographs with different politicians and celebrities who I’ve interviewed over the years. Bart magically inserted those images making my book stand out like no other. He also helped me put a workbook in the back of my book. What can I say, Bart’s the bomb when it comes to books, designing them, laying them out, and so much more. Thanks, Bart. Your design work and book titling ideas are through the roof!” – Gayl M., Hollywood Reporter, Hollywood, CA
"I love the fact that I'm now a published author. Bart made the process fun, educational and inspirational. Without Bart, it would still just be a dream of mine." – Pearl Bowen, Pearlisms.com
Besides baking the world’s best chocolate chip cookies, I guess I found something else I’m really good at and love to do and that’s writing books … and a lot of them! Writing them, designing covers for them, laying the interior pages out in ways no other designer ever thought to, recording them, marketing them, coming up with the table of contents and ideas for my next round of books … and helping others do the same!
Listen, I won’t beat around the bush, if you want to learn how this whole self-publishing process works, save your money and either buy this book for just $24.95 + S/H or purchase the online version.
When I say, “Save your money …” what I mean by that is don’t waste it on some $1,900 weekend boot camp to learn how to get inspired to write your book. Waste o’ time! You’re going to need those monies for book printing costs, hiring a cover desire, laying the book out, book marketing materials, book advertising, etc.
My SELF-PUBLISHING MANUAL has everything you need and so much more that even a some 2-day workshop taught by someone other than me could ever cover. So, check out my SELF-PUBLISHING MANUAL and I hope this book helps you reach your self-publishing goals faster than ever before!
