In this episode, I interview Trena White, the Co-founder, and Principal of Page Two based in Vancouver, Canada. Page Two is a book publishing company that helps non-fiction authors publish brilliant books, and helps organizations with their publishing activities.  With over 10 years of experience in a traditional publishing company, Trena and her business partner decided to start their own book publishing company that treats authors as true partners in the publishing process and helps authors work toward their goals for the book. They founded the company in 2013; in their first year in the business they obtained $100,000 of revenue, and after 8 years they’re at mid-seven figures and around 20 FTEs. Trena says that a book is the ultimate expression of somebody's mastery of their subject. So they strive hard to collaborate with each client on reaching their goals for their book projects.
