Episode 357 – Top Tips from the IPG Spring Conference

IPG bannerThe Independent Publishers’ Guild annual Spring Conference is one of the highlights of the year for the book industry. I seized the opportunity to speak to six movers and shakers in the world of books to put to them the questions that you’d have asked if you’d only had the chance. 

You’re welcome.
