Publishing hopefuls toolkit
Whether you're just starting to look for publishing roles, looking to upskill or wanting to find a new opportunity. The Publishing Hopefuls Toolkit is a rolling database of advice to help you succeed.
Breaking into the publishing industry takes perseverance, patience and passion. At least, that’s my experience of it.
As a senior marketing professional with over 10 years of experience in recruiting, mentoring and coaching within the publishing industry I know how challenging it can be to break through to find that first role, that new role or even to succeed in the role you have.
I created the Publishing Hopefuls Toolkit as a rolling database of advice, recommendations and resources for publishing hopefuls and professionals to succeed. I’ll continue to add to it as I share advice on Market Your Marketing, and if you have any links you’d like to share please comment below.
