About this Event

We've got monthly Civic Sessions, designed to help you think differently, grow your business, and pick up practical tools. Each 45 – 60 min session is packed with tips, ideas, and takeaways (and a free lunch!)

This session, Gemma Holgate , CEO of Maddison House Press, a Wigan-based publishing company, is joining us to explore how entrepreneurs are turning their knowledge into published books that build credibility, attract clients, and grow their brand.

We'll cover:

➡️ Why a book is one of the most powerful business tools you can create

➡️ What makes a business idea suitable for a book

➡️ How the publishing process actually works

➡️ Practical first steps to turning your expertise into a manuscript

Whether you're an entrepreneur, consultant or business owner, this session will show you how a book could become your most valuable marketing asset.

Fancy sticking around? After the session, you're welcome to come and work from Civic. Grab a desk, enjoy the space, and keep the momentum going!going!
