I've waited two years to discover a program so complete that it blows the competition away. Not only was the seminar filled with better than broadway entertainment with presenters that were the creme de la creme, but the information was invaluable to launch any attendee with the tools for success. This seminar is a must for anyone desiring to achieve success.

- Jilliana Raymond  


Just came back from the publishing seminar. It was great to be there. Thank you to all for the super content and presentation. This was the best seminar I ever went to!

- Robert Merin


I learned so much at Author 101. Thank you. But most importantly, I made friendships and felt a part of a group that will be a two-way blessing for years to come, I believe.

- Karey


Just wanted to say how amazing the Author 101 conference was. I flew from Dubai just to be a part of this and it exceeded all of my expectations.

On top of the fantastic networking opportunity there was a wealth of knowledge passed on that was beyond any price paid to attend this event.

I really cannot say enough about what I learned and took away from this experience. I have already begun motivating people around me who have thought about writing or who I know that has a marketable story to tell.

- Jayme Harris


Rarely have I found such bang for the buck. If I had left at noon on the first day, I already would have gotten my money's worth and then some.

- Dick Methia


I just wanted to take a moment to tell you how welcome you made my wife Sandy and I feel at Author 101 at the Westin in Los Angeles. L.A.'s my home town and I felt like we were visiting an old friend who just happened to have the best speakers and motivators in the business in his living room.

You and OUR associates do a wonderful job and it is splendid to be working with you as an author with Morgan James Publishing. I can't wait until we publish my book "Drunk and Disorderly, Again My Name is Hoot, I'm an Alcoholic," to utilize some of the many techniques and shortcuts we learned over the course of the day.

-Hoot


Dynamic speakers. Amazing people. Invaluable information. Words cannot totally define the 'magic' of this event ... It was beyond magical.

The event opened me to a world filled with so much positive energy, brilliant minds and TRUTHFUL information.

It was by far the most valuable seminar I have ever been to and worth its price a million times over. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. My life has been changed forever.

- Nancy Hayssen


Thank you for a fantastic event.

Author 101 delivered on its promise. I didn’t just learn what it takes to succeed as an author, I got the insider’s look at how to execute a publicity strategy, get on top radio shows and build powerful relationships with corporations and non-profits.  

I feel privileged to have this information and be connected to those that have the secrets to reaching millions of people and making millions of dollars doing it. I am also in awe of the way the material was presented and given from the heart of your speakers and yourself. This wasn’t just a conference; it was an invitation to be part of a network of givers and receivers. Thanks for giving so much of yourself and bringing such a fantastic slate of speakers into one jam-packed event.

- Alice


The workshop was wonderful. There was so much information that I'd never heard anywhere before. I've always been afraid of the business side of writing; I wish I could just write. But this workshop gave me loads of actions I can run with to market my writing. The people were great too. It was worth getting up at four in the morning, returning at 12:30 at night, and driving three hours each way. I'm still excited about it.

Mark Victor Hansen

Worldwide name recognition. International speaking engagements. A constant shower of accolades from celebrities and millions of fans worldwide. The resources to lead a life devoted to philanthropy and goodwill. It's the fairy-tale life of a wildly successful best-selling author, Mark Victor Hansen—and he'll show you how to achieve, starting from scratch, just like he did.

Just 20 years ago, Mark was bankrupt from a failed business. With no money and even fewer resources, he found the determination and energy to create the king of all publishing empires most people only dream about. As an unknown speaker and author, his first book, Stand Up, Speak Out & Win, sold 20,000 copies in just 12 months. And his first best-selling series, Chicken Soup for the Soul, has now sold more than 100 million copies in 39 languages worldwide.

He, along with his co-author Jack Canfield, have also licensed more than 100 audio books, derivative products and retail merchandise items in just the past decade alone.

His tremendous success is due to one of the publishing industry's most unique business models—combining powerful book marketing strategies, lucrative licensing systems, popular seminar programs and a speaking calendar that's virtually unrivaled anywhere in the information industry.

Now, in this fascinating and powerfully inspiring opening session, Mark gives you the formula and inspiration to accomplish all he has and more. You'll get an insider look at the nuts and bolts of launching a successful career as an author. Also, you'll hear from other authors who have followed—and profited from—Mark's advice. Mark will expand your vision of how large of a worldwide information empire you could build starting with your very first book.

David Hancock, Founder of Morgan James Publishing

David L. Hancock

David L. Hancock, Morgan James founder, was named a Finalist in the Best Chairman category in The 2006 American Business Awards. Hailed as “the business world’s own Oscars” by the New York Post, The American Business Awards are the only national, all-encompassing business awards program honoring great performances in the workplace.

David was selected for Fast Company Magazine's Fast 50 for 2006 for his leading creative thinking, significant accomplishments and stands to have a significant impact on the next 10 years.

Actively working with his authors to help them not only maximize revenue from their book royalties, David also builds new business and increases their revenue substantially through follow-on sales to their readers.

One of David's core values is having strong and mutually beneficial relationships. "We've spent years developing many of the key business relationships that allows us to get our books in bookstores and the widespread web coverage we've been able to achieve. We intend to stay constant in our pursuit of positive relationships with people in all facets of our business, and we see that as a strategic advantage."

David will be teaching us Guerrilla Marketing for Writers.

As an author, you are an entrepreneur. Every book you write is a separate enterprise with its own fate and its own reckoning that balances income against expenditures. For guerrillas, the only business criterion that counts is profits.

Marketing is anything done to sell a product or service and maintain relationships with the people who make the business possible. Fortune 500 companies spend millions to market their products.

But like most entrepreneurs, authors don’t have millions to spend. They have to be guerrilla marketers. They have to use unconventional weapons and tactics that substitute time, energy and imagination for money.

He will share

  • Why You Have to Be a Guerrilla Marketer
  • The 15 Most Important Marketing Secrets
  • 6 Tactics of thinking like a Guerrilla
  • The 10 Commandments of the Guerrilla Writer
  • How you can launch your Guerrilla Marketing campaign with the 100 most effective weapons

That is the essence of guerrilla marketing.

Craig Duswalt, Professional RockStar Speaker and Author

Craig Duswalt

How to Achieve RockStar Status in Your Industry By Writing a Book in 30 Days and Thinking Outside the Box
Axl Rose. Pat Benatar. Mick Jagger. Paul McCartney. Not exactly the people you would look to for marketing advice. But look at what they have done. Each one of them rose from complete obscurity to become a music icon. Just saying their names invokes certain images — Axl, the Guns N’ Roses bad boy. Benatar, the lady rocker who could kick your butt eight ways to Sunday, and you’d like it. Jagger’s lips. McCartney, the “cute” Beatle.

They became wildly successful in music because they made their own way. They made their own rules as they went along and in the process, developed world-wide celebrity.

And isn’t that what you want to accomplish in your business? Don’t you want to be instantly recognizable? Don’t you want to be the expert, the go-to person in your field? When a news story breaks in your industry, don’t you want the media calling you for your opinion? That’s what the RockStar System For Success is all about.
Basically, it's RockStar Marketing!

Maybe you can’t sing a note. Maybe the only musical instrument you can play is an iPod. But you can be a RockStar in your industry!
RockStars are the best in their business. They’re known as experts. They are celebrities in their field. That's what Craig creates with the RockStar System For Success — RockStar Entrepreneurs.

And one of the easiest ways for you, an Entrepreneur, to be perceived as an expert and celebrity in your industry is to WRITE A BOOK TO PROMOTE YOUR BUSINESS!

Craig will personally share...

  • How easy it is to write a book to promote your business in only 30 days, so you are immediately perceived as an expert AND celebrity in your field, so clients will come running to you to do business.
  • 3 incredible benefits why handing out your book at networking events is a million times more effective than handing out your run-of-the-mill, boring business cards.
  • Behind-the-scenes experiences with Guns N' Roses on how real RockStars promote themselves on the road, and how you can apply these same outside-the-box marketing principles to your business.
  • How to promote yourself and your business for less than the cost of a Starbucks coffee a day, and not waste your hard-earned money on expensive, virtually useless print advertising.
  • How to build incredible wealth through high-priced coaching programs, so you can enjoy the lifestyle of your choice, and give back to your community.

Bottom line — Craig teaches how to work as little as possible, how to love what you do, and how to generate massive income, so you too, can enjoy the lifestyle of your choice.

Craig Duswalt is a professional speaker and the creator and author of Craig Duswalt's RockStar System For Success - How to Achieve RockStar Status in Your Industry. Craig is also a very popular and entertaining keynote speaker and a marketing coach who uses "outside-the-box thinking" tools to change the way entrepreneurs do business.
