The team at New Wave Press is awarding a $250,000 Full Publishing Scholarship to one entrepreneur who’s ready to turn their expertise into a book that elevates their brand, drives high-ticket leads, and positions them as the authority in their industry.

The full $250K scholarship includes:

Publishing: interviewing you, writing your book, editing, design, and distribution.

Production: 1,000 physical books + ebook and audiobook production (Audible and Spotify).

Marketing: email + social marketing, Goodreads giveaway, Amazon review strategy, influencer campaigns.

Media: paid ads, a full podcast tour, placement in top media outlets, a billboard in Times Square NYC and more.

We'll also set up the website(s) for your book and create a custom movie style video trailer.

With New Wave Press #1 bestselling author James Swanwick at his Times Square billboard!

In other words, you get it all — everything I've learned about selling books over the last 10 years + the full attention and energy of the New Wave team.

We’re doing this because I want to work with serious entrepreneurs who understand that books are the best positioning device any business can have.

​

Books have nearly infinite ROI for creating new customers and since they've already been around for thousands of years (since the days of clay tablets!), they aren't dependent on an algorithm to spread.
