Our book, Entrepreneur Like a Mother (Wiley), launched September 22 and hit the USA Today bestseller list. Now we need someone to get it into the right rooms: law firm women's initiatives, bank ERGs, professional associations, and book clubs. This is a part time, remote role built on cold outreach and relentless follow-up.
What you'll do:
  • Build and maintain a target list of women's initiatives, ERGs, and affinity networks at Am Law 200 firms, banks, and financial services companies, plus professional associations, alumni groups, and book clubs.
  • Find the real decision maker (partner sponsor, professional development lead, ERG chair, event programmer) and learn when they plan their calendar.
  • Write and send personalized cold emails and LinkedIn messages. Follow up until you get a yes or a no.
  • Pitch two offers: me as a keynote, fireside chat, or panel speaker, and bulk book purchases for events, book clubs, and client gifting.
  • Run the details once a booking lands: dates, fees, contracts, AV, book orders, and logistics.
  • Track every contact and outcome in a shared pipeline. Send me a short written update each week. What you bring
  • 2+ years in at least one of these: speaker booking or a speakers bureau, ERG or women's initiative programming, law firm or bank business development or professional development, publishing special sales or author publicity.
  • Proof you can cold pitch and get answers. You'll be asked for an example.
  • A working understanding of how law firms and banks are organized and who controls programming budgets.
  • Short, clean writing. Your emails get read because they get to the point.
  • Comfort working on your own with a weekly check-in.
Nice to have:
  • Existing relationships with women's networks at law firms, banks, or professional associations.
  • Experience with bulk book orders or corporate reading programs.
  • Familiarity with HubSpot, Airtable, or a similar CRM.
