Before you register

Frequently asked questions

Am I paying to speak or paying to be in the book?

Your investment is not simply a fee for stage time or ebook inclusion. The Visibility Package and Visibility Amplifier Package support the complete collaboration: event production, publishing coordination, Amazon launch strategy, book distribution, registration tracking, and the visibility assets that keep your expertise working after SBVE.

I already wrote a book—or I'm already a bestseller. Why do I need this?

This is a marketing collaboration, not a test of whether you can publish. Your focused chapter introduces your expertise to the SBVE and MBX audiences, directs readers to your evergreen gift and complimentary presentation replay, and continues circulating through Amazon, the MBX website, summits, and other events.

When will I present?

SBVE takes place November 20–21, 2026. Registered speakers receive their assigned presentation date and time as the agenda is finalized.

Do I have to promote SBVE?

Yes. SBVE is collaborative. Every speaker receives a unique tracking link and is expected to promote through appropriate email, social media, and personal outreach. We strongly encourage a goal of at least 30 registrations.

Is bestseller status guaranteed?

Three of our collaborative book launches—Curious Connectors and two SBVE Collaboration Books—achieved Amazon bestseller status. We will coordinate the same type of strategic launch for this edition. Rankings are controlled by Amazon, however, so a specific ranking cannot be guaranteed.

Can I pitch my offer during my presentation?

Your session should teach first and provide genuine value. Your evergreen free gift and follow-up pathway give interested attendees a natural way to continue with you.
