Nonfiction Book Proposal

Publishing a nonfiction book can legitimize your business or brand and serve as an evergreen tool to increase revenue. 

But the process of getting your nonfiction book published starts with four little words: the nonfiction book proposal.

Over the years, I have perfected my proprietary nonfiction book proposal methodology to create a comprehensive roadmap for your book to sell. Hundreds of clients have landed literary agents, book deals, and become bestselling authors with this methodology.

Whether you’ve already written a nonfiction book or just have a concept, the proposal acts as a content strategy for your book, brand, promotional tactics, author platform, competition, readership, and more.

What we do:

Together, we co-create your book proposal to submit to literary agents and editors so you can sit back and wait for that one “YES.”

Why it works:

When you hire me, I guarantee honest feedback about your idea and its place in the market. I have real relationships with agents and publishers to truly meet your goals head-on and am here to help you birth your book in the world. 

Who it’s for:

Anyone with a solid nonfiction book idea, an established author platform, and the willingness to work.

What you get:

You will receive video feedback, live edits, weekly coaching, a proofed proposal, custom query letter, and a curated pitch list of appropriate agents or publishers.  

To recap:

—> We provide the proprietary nonfiction book proposal blueprint

—> We collaborate on your entire book proposal and get it “pitch ready” in 4 weeks

—> We provide live feedback and coaching in real time for all of your creative questions and concerns
