Top 3 Value Bombs:
1. Choose someone that can really work with you from beginning to end, that could be your advocate and guide to the whole process. Figure out your goals, evaluate the right person, and choose someone who can really add value to the whole process.
2. Pick someone who knows and understands both traditional and hybrid publishing. They are very different, they serve different goals, and they're really great options, but it depends on what's going to be best for you.
3. For some business owners, waiting a year or two to get their book out cost them more in lost opportunities than the upside of waiting for a traditional publisher.
