Frequently Asked Questions
What is your audience?
It changes constantly, but between mailing lists and subscribers, it’s in the thousands. Oil and gas professionals in English countries dominate (US, Canada, UK).
Â
How do you incorporate your books?
Who owns the IP?
Typically, anything I create where I’m identified, I own but I grant you almost unlimited usage rights. If I’m not identified as creator, then you own. You can’t own my likeness!
Â
How long is the IP available?
I recommend a 2 year life. The content is available on line depending on the platform rules.
Â
Can the content be taken down if necessary?
What about joint authorship?
Of course. Industry publications really value content produced by multiple authors.Â
Â
Can I approve content before it’s released?
Absolutely. Nothing is published without your prior written approval.Â
Â
How do contracts work?
I am on retainer between 3 and 6 months to produce and promote 1 content piece each month. But I’m very flexible.
Â
What is the cancellation policy?
You can cancel at anytime. I bill for the month that you cancel.Â
Â
Are there any expenses?
Usually none. It’s all virtual. Books and shipping are billed at cost. If you do require me to be present in person at your event, then I submit reasonable travel expenses.
Â
What about promotion?
We both promote the content so that it reaches our respective audiences. We mutually engage with our respective promotions to maximize audience reach.
Â
How do you handle conflicts of interest?
It rarely happens, but if I sense any conflicts of interest, I’ll surface any issues for discussion with you.Â
