The WikiBrands Publishing Journey

The book: Launched from branding guru Don Tapscott's landmark $10 million
research project on the intersection of technology and business models,
WikiBrands explain what your business needs to do NOW to embrace the power
of p-2-p technologies like word-of-mouth, user generated content, social
media, microblogging, crowdsourcing, and customer rating systems to engage
customers and enlist them in brand building and value-enhancement.


So, if print is dead and technology books face obsolescence before they even
reach the shelves, why would we even take on the project?

At Toronto Wiki Tuesday, we'll answer this question as well as discuss:
- Key lessons learned about the writing process
- Finding an agent and writing the proposal
- What to expect in the editing process
- The pros and cons of self-publishing
- Marketing the book
