You have the expertise. I’ll help you turn it into a book.
You’ve spent years building knowledge, experience, and credibility in your field. And you know that producing a book with your name on it could even further accelerate your career.
The only problem? Writing a book takes hundreds of hours that you don’t have.
That’s where I come in.
I help founders, executives, consultants, and subject matter experts transform their ideas into professionally written nonfiction books — without spending their evenings staring at a blank page.
Whether you’re looking to establish thought leadership, generate speaking opportunities, support your business development efforts, or leave a lasting legacy, a book can be one of the most powerful tools in your marketing arsenal.
The challenge isn’t knowing what to say — it’s finding the time and structure to say it.
Why write a book?
A well-written book can help you:
- Build authority in your industry
- Differentiate yourself from your competitors
- Open doors to speaking engagements
- Generate media opportunities
- Support lead generation and business development
- Create a valuable resource for clients and prospects
- Capture your knowledge before it walks out the door
Most experts already have enough knowledge for a book.
They just need someone to help organize it, shape it, and write it.
How the process works
1. Discovery & Strategy
Every project begins with a series of interviews designed to uncover your ideas, expertise, stories, and goals.
Together, we’ll determine:
- Who the book is for
- What problem the book solves
- How the book supports your business objectives
- What makes your perspective unique
2. Book Outline Development
Before a single chapter is written, we’ll create a detailed roadmap for the manuscript.
This ensures that the structure is sound, the messaging is clear, and we’re aligned on the vision before we move forward.
3. Manuscript Creation
Using interviews, recordings, notes, and supporting materials, I’ll write the manuscript chapter by chapter.
You’ll review drafts along the way, providing feedback and direction as the book takes shape.
The result is a manuscript that sounds like you—only clearer, more organized, and easier to read.
4. Revision & Refinement
Once the first draft is complete, we’ll work through revisions to strengthen the content, clarify key points, and ensure the finished manuscript reflects your voice and expertise.
Why work with me?
Writing a book isn’t just about writing.
It’s about extracting expertise, identifying the strongest ideas, and presenting them in a way that resonates with readers.
For more than a decade, I’ve interviewed founders, executives, engineers, healthcare professionals, researchers, lawyers, and subject matter experts across a wide range of industries.
I’ve built a career translating complex ideas into clear, compelling content.
Book ghostwriting is a natural extension of that work.
When you hire Brand Gesture, you’re not hiring someone to simply type words onto a page.
You’re hiring a strategic content partner who can help shape your ideas into a book people actually want to read.
Who is this for?
You’ll be a great fit for a book ghostwriting project if you’re a founder, consultant, technology leader, healthcare expert, or leader at a professional services firm.
Frequently asked questions
Will my name appear on the book?
Yes.
Most ghostwriting projects are published under the client’s name. My role is to help bring your ideas to life behind the scenes.
How long does the process take?
Most nonfiction book projects take between four and twelve months, depending on the manuscript length, complexity, and review process.
Do I need a complete manuscript before we start?
Not at all.
Many clients begin with little more than an idea, a collection of notes, or years of expertise they want to share.
Can you help with publishing?
Yes. While publishing services are separate from ghostwriting, I can provide guidance on traditional publishing, hybrid publishing, and self-publishing options.
How much does book ghostwriting cost?
Book ghostwriting costs vary significantly depending on the length of the manuscript, the amount of research involved, the complexity of the subject matter, and the level of collaboration required.
Most nonfiction ghostwriting projects fall somewhere between $20,000 and $50,000, though some projects may fall outside that range depending on their scope.
Every project begins with a discovery conversation where we’ll discuss your goals, timeline, and vision for the book. From there, I’ll provide a custom proposal outlining the scope of work and the associated investment.
If you’re not ready to commit to a full manuscript, I also offer smaller engagements such as book strategy sessions, outline development, and manuscript assessments. These services are priced at a much more affordable rate — ranging from $2,500 to $5,000 — so you can see what working with me is like before you commit 5 figures to a book ghostwriting deal.
