About Yvonne DiVita

My friends call me The Book Whisperer. I'm a Book Coach and Author advisor. I help entrepreneurs and successful business professionals put their story into a book. A book that matters. That leaves a legacy. That creates community. That helps build business and invites more speaking opportunities. A book that builds authority. I’m a writer. An author. An advisor. A former book publisher. In 2015, I was awarded the title of Woman of the Year in the Women in the Pet Industry Network. It was the most wonderful accolade and highest honor I have ever received! My favorite saying is: "It had long since come to my attention that people of accomplishment rarely sat back and let things happen to them. They went out and happened to things." Elinor Smith, Aviator

An image from the point of view of a person on the couch, pointing the remote control at a TV with many available options for watching. Text on the image says "Are you and your book ready for prime time?"

Are You and Your Book Ready for Prime Time?

Two: Your book must be complete. No wishy-washy maybe endings. Even in fiction, you must bring your story to a close. You may have more to say. You may already be starting another book or planning a series, but this book, the book you’re announcing, must be complete. If you don’t know whether or not it’s complete, ask your beta readers.

Making the Most of Your LinkedIn Profile

The experts I talk to, and follow on LinkedIn, tell me this – it’s about what you can do for someone else, and not what you’ve accomplished in your life. Yes, there’s a place to validate your expertise (I would say it’s in your posts, but that’s a given, isn’t it? Isn’t it? 👀) . But put that after showcasing what you can do to solve a problem I have.
