Disclaimer: Robbie Samuels LLC has not personally worked with all of these Hub Partners. Listing in the Biz Book Pub Hub is not an endorsement.

Do you support entrepreneurs writing books to help them grow their businesses? Hub Partner applications are considered on a rolling basis. Fill out the application to express your interest.
Robbie Samuels founded the Biz Book Pub Hub to give entrepreneurs access to the resources they need to successfully navigate their author journey, from writing to editing to publishing to marketing.
He is an award-winning author of three books that have received over 650 Amazon reviews and reached #1 Best Seller in 30 categories across the U.S., U.K., Canada, and Australia. He is a book launch strategy coach, event design consultant, executive Zoom producer, and business growth strategy coach who shows entrepreneurs how to build a launch team filled with likely prospects and referral partners, get at least 50 Amazon reviews, and create a revenue pipeline for their business.
You won’t find a “best-seller campaign” category in the Hub because he believes it is misguided to tell entrepreneurs who wrote a book to attract new clients to focus on that metric of success since evidence of the orange #1 Best Seller ribbon goes away so quickly and has little to no impact on revenue. What is on the book’s Amazon sales page forever? Reviews.
Curious about how to launch (or relaunch) your book to build a pipeline of new business? Reach out.
