Ideal for business owners looking to share their knowledge, coaches to share their wisdom, help others in your area of expertise - whatever your reason for writing/self publishing a book, we can help!
11+ years experience of writing and self publishing!
Author of 7 non-fiction books (10 books if you include updated editions of previous books!)
Simon has written and self published books since 2013 - and will share his experiences, skills and knowledge he has gained over 11 years.
Unlike a lot of the videos you find on the Internet, Simon will actually show you his own books (and what's worked for him), there's no affiliate links, and no false promises.
We can NOT help with: editing/proofreading, do all the work for you, copywriting, ghostwriting, or low content books. However, if you'd like help with any of these, we may be able to introduce you to people who can help!
Unfortunately we can't upload your book, covers, etc. to self publishing platforms for you (this is against their terms and conditions!) - although we are happy to provide advice on the steps, etc.
