Hello, my name is Henry DeVries, and I have the honor
of leading the “Marketing With a Book” session. As a
ghostwriter and editor for consultants, I have
worked on 50 book projects in the last six years.
My proposals have earned five-figure advances for
clients. My latest best-selling book, How to
Close A Deal Like Warren Buffett, co-authored with
Vistage speaker Tom Searcy and published by
McGraw-Hill in November of 2012, won multiple
“Best Business Books” of the year awards and
achieved numerous Amazon #1 Best Seller Rankings,
including:

* #1 in Books > Business & Investing >
Management & Leadership > Negotiating
* #1 in Books > Business & Investing > Skills
* #1 in Books > Business & Investing > Small
Business & Entrepreneurship > Entrepreneurship
* #1 in Books > Business & Investing > Marketing
& Sales > Sales & Selling

I have published with the top five publishers,
privately published, independently published and
association published, and personally know the
dos and don’ts of all current publishing
options.

I also have relationships with some of the most
respected agents in the business and have launched
and supported columns in Forbes.com, Inc.com,
metro daily newspapers and CBS MoneyWatch helping
clients to gain credibility, free publicity and
larger reach.

I also teach marketing at the University of California
San Diego and serve as the assistant dean for continuing education.

Leading the “Marketing With a Speech” portion
of the seminar is Mark LeBlanc, past president of
the National Speakers Association and author of
the underground best-seller Growing Your Business
and his latest book Never Be the Same. He is an
expert on speaking more and for higher fees.

He runs Small Business Success and works with and
speaks for groups of business owners who want to
grow and sell more products and services

the top of their ‘Goals and Things To-Do’

Atlanta Marketing With a Book and Speech Summit March 9

Henry DeVries — Mon, 28 Jan 2013 22:00:50 +0000

Top Ten Ways to Attract Clients with Books and Speaking

Invitation

You are invited to apply for a no-cost seat at his private, invitation-only “Marketing With A Book and Speech Summit” coming to Atlanta on Saturday, March 9 from 9 am to 4:30 pm.During the summit you’ll discover how to leverage your expertise into more high-paying clients by writing books with built-in marketing and speaking more for high fees. Leading the “Marketing With a Book” session is Henry DeVries. As a ghostwriter and editor for consultants, he has worked on 43 book projects in the last six years. His proposals have earned five-figure advances for clients. His latest best-selling book, How to Close A Deal Like Warren Buffett, co-authored with Vistage speaker Tom Searcy, was published by McGraw-Hill in November of 2012 and was the #1 sales and marketing book on Amazon.com. To apply send an email to henry@newclientmarketing.com

By Henry DeVries

“With a book, you’re able to demonstrate that you understand like no one else the specific nature of the problems that your prospects face,” best-selling author Michael Levin recently told the New York Times.

“I always recommend targeting a niche with a book instead of writing for the general public,” added the noted ghostwriter. “Write exactly for the people you’re trying to sell to. Show them that you understand their problems and that you offer solutions. In a book, you can lay out everything that you do to solve these problems. The goal is that if your book is generous enough with information, they’ll say, ‘I could do this on my own, but I would be much better off hiring the author to solve this problem for me.’ That’s the result we’re looking for. That’s why you want a book.”

What groundwork should you lay before you write a book?

There is a proven process for marketing with integrity and getting an up to 400% to 2000% return on your marketing investment. At the Marketing With a Book and Speech Summit we call it the Educating Expert Model, and the most successful professional service and consulting firms use it to get more clients than they can handle. The findings of our 8-year, $2 million research study about how the most successful professional and consulting firms use this model were published in our book, Client Seduction.

Here is the Reader’s Digest version. Before you can begin attracting clients, you need to create a marketing genetic code that is attractive to clients. All of your marketing messages, from networking discussions to speeches, will contain the elements of this marketing DNA that positions you as the Educating Expert. Here are 10 steps that will help you create these all-important marketing genes.

1. Create a business name or a website name that gives potential clients a hint at the results you can produce for them. The worst possible business name or website name is your name. I know, I know, McKinsey and Price Waterhouse are named after the founders. But you are not them. Sorry to say, clients don’t want us, they want results.
2. Write a headline for your website and marketing materials that describes your audience and the results you produce for them. Do this in no more than 10 words. Mine is “We help professionals and consultants attract all the clients they want.”
3. Name your client’s pain. What are your client’s worries, frustrations and concerns that you help solve? This is also called the FUD factor: fear, uncertainty and doubt.
4. Describe your solution or methodology for solving these pains. What process do you follow to produce results? Offering a proprietary problem-solving process that you name and trademark is best. This answers the all-important question in their minds: “Why should I do business with you instead of one of your competitors?”
5. State the common misperception that holds many back from getting results. Why doesn’t everybody do what you named in step 4?
6. Tell your clients what they need to do in general to solve their problem. Pretend they weren’t hiring you and you had to describe the steps they should take for success.
7. List any other benefits they get from following your methods. What other good things do people get when they do what you advise?
8. Elaborate on your track record of providing measurable results for clients. Be specific as much as possible. Use numbers, percentages and time factors.
9. Create a website with free tips articles on how to solve these pains. Each article should be about 300 to 600 words. What’s a good format? Consider the numbered tips approach you are reading right now (easy to write, easy to read).
10. Make prospects an offer of a free special report on your website. You are offering to trade them a valuable piece of information for their email address. Tell them they will also receive a tips enewsletter from you. Assure them you will maintain their privacy and they can easily opt off your list any time they want.

Spring 2013 Summits

Henry DeVries — Sun, 12 Aug 2012 21:31:40 +0000

Would you like an invitation to be my guest to attend one of my four upcoming private Marketing With a Book Summits? Then send me an email to henry@newclientmarketing.com why you should be invited.

Hi, my name is Henry DeVries and I run a company called the New Client Marketing Institute. I work with consultants who want to position themselves as an expert, grow their business and explore the possibilities of what could happen if they were the author of a book. It has been a privilege to work with consultants as a writer or editor on 40 book projects in the last six years. My proposals have earned five figure advances for clients. My latest book, How to Close Deals Like Warren Buffet, co-authored with Tom Searcy, will be published by McGraw-Hill in November of 2012. My team and I have published with the top five publishers, privately published, independently published and association published (American Medical Association and the American Marketing Association), so I personally know the dos and don’ts of all current publishing options. I also have relationships with some of the most respected agents in the business and have launched and supported columns in CBS MoneyWatch, Inc.com and Forbes.com helping to gain notoriety, free publicity and larger reach.

I am also founder of the Marketing with a Book Summits. These are informational-only private summits about how to find more clients by publishing and speaking. Many marketing experts will be in attendance giving Ted conference style talks (15-20 minutes, very focused) on various aspects of getting published and speaking. There will be no selling. That’s right, no selling from me, Mark LeBlanc, best-selling author and past president of the National Speakers Association, my co-host or any of the other speakers. Amazing but true.

Here is the Marketing With A Book Summit schedule:

What Will Be Covered
If you have attended a summit before this is new information about what is happening in the world of publishing and speaking to find new clients. If you could attend both events, the book summit and Mark’s private seminar on how to grow your business, I would do it because the events are complementary. His is also an information-only event with no selling. You can’t beat the price of either event: free.

There is a great deal of information I have uncovered since our last book summits. Each of the four summits will be different and include a variety of viewpoints. Some of the information I will include:

Trends about speaking for Vistage (also known as a pride-swallowing siege)
How to speak at YPO
How to speak Renaissance Executive Forums
How to speak to Ted and Tedx conferences
What to say to editors and reporters to generate publicity
How to ask 1 million people to buy your book
What are low-cost tools for guaranteed national publicity
How to sell a major publisher like Wiley or McGraw-Hill
How to work with an independent publisher for more profits and control
How to launch a free book promotion blogsite
How to land a column with Inc.com, Forbes.com or CBS MoneyWatch
When does it make sense to hire a publicist
How to sell books by the case
What is and isn’t working with social media (hint: LinkedIn)
Sample killer book proposals
What it takes to land a column with a daily newspaper
New models for converting seminar attendees into clients

How to Register
Registration is simple. Send me an email to henry@newclientmarketing.com and tell me what events you want to attend. Then I will send you confirmation information with exact details. Space is limited and we don’t want too many people at the summits (two dozen max) so registration is on a first come, first served basis. Also, if you need to cancel, that’s okay but tell me as soon as you have a change of plans so I can let someone in from the waiting list.

Here are some of my book summit speakers.

Mark LeBlanc zeros in on four key areas of focus for consultants and independent professionals:

Direction
Identity
Marketing
Benchmarking
To be a successful author and speaker, Mark wants to make sure you are positioned properly and heading in the right direction. His strategies on creating an identity in the marketplace can have immediate impact on success. From a marketing perspective, he’ll share what it takes to get your telephone to ring, and develop repeat business. Everyone knows what it feels like to be focused, but maintaining that focus and momentum is often short-lived. He helps you set up a system (the G.R.O.W. system) for creating a laser-like focus on a daily basis, and prevent you from going off on tangents, disguised as opportunities.

Dean Minuto will share advance presentation skills and the ins and outs of speaking on the Vistage circuitDean Minuto

Improving your presentation skills is a must. Dean Minuto will share advanced presentation skills the ins and outs of speaking on the Vistage circuit.
Dean Minuto and his business partners at SalesBrain have spoken to more than 500 Vistage International CEO groups. Dean is the number one rated speaker for Vistage.

With more than 14,500 members, Vistage International (once know as TEC) is the world’s foremost chief executive leadership peer organization. Vistage’s Executive Leadership Program provides monthly peer workshops, one-on-one business coaching, speaker presentations from hundreds of top industry experts, social networking and an extensive online content library of articles, best practices, pod casts and webinars.

Today, Vistage International (TEC’s successor) and its global affiliates operate in 16 countries. Executive Leadership Program members meet in small groups every month under the same guiding principles—to help one another make better decisions, achieve better results, and enhance their lives. In these groups, they learn to challenge each other (CEOs) with respect and caring and they see a wide array of companies, leaders and issues. This process is an advisory process and that experience translates to good advisory board dynamics.

Since 1992, Dean has worked with more than 400 high performing teams with a single focus: increasing sales conversion rates, decreasing time in process and improving the overall customer experience. Dean is a content expert in the areas of process consulting, training delivery, coaching and consultative selling, and his clients have installed performance systems (on a pay-for-performance basis) in more than a dozen industries within a range of organizations—from Fortune 50 public corporations to private firms with 50 employees. Dean joined the SalesBrain team in August of 2008. Dean holds a Bachelor’s Degree from LeMoyne College and earned a Professional Certification in Behavioral Psychology with Dr Robert Cialdini.
