FAQs

Who is this session designed for?

Marketing professionals in the publishing industry who are managing their own marketing teams or running their own campaigns.

 

There’s a discount for BookMachine members. How do I sign up?

We’re glad you asked! Sign up for a Campus membership from just £18/month. Not only does this get you the member discount – but you also get access to a library of over 100 video resources, publishing courses and discounts with industry partners.

 

Will you be recording the session if I can’t make it?

No. The session is incredibly boutique and limited to just 10 guests. The content will be interactive and tailored to the attendees in the room, and so won’t be as useful to you in a recorded format.

 

What’s accessibility like at the venue?

The nearest Underground station is North Greenwich, which has lifts between platform and ticket hall level. Our office is on the second floor. The doorways are wide and lift access is available. Toilets are single-room cubicles and are accessible to all genders.
