Session Name: How to Become a Contributor to Top Business Publications

Session Date & Time: May 3, 12:55pm-1:35pm

Description: Could writing for Forbes, Inc., or Entrepreneur generate $5M in revenue for your small business? Land you a book deal? Send you to hang out with Richard Branson on his tropical island for a week? Lead to phone calls with Beyonce’s dad and invitations to the White House? These are just a few of the real-life perks that have come to contributors to top business publications.
