Most brand consultants who work with authors understand branding. Most people in the bookish world understand authors. Very few understand both from the inside, but this is where I thrive!

I have spent 7 years building brand foundations, websites, and marketing strategies for nearly 100 businesses across industries, and I have spent that same time building relationships inside the bookish world as a Bookstagrammer, alpha reader, and strategist.

I have worked with authors on pen name strategy, created PR box strategies, alpha read and beta read manuscripts, created & designed booths for pop-ups and signings, and worked with independent bookstores on author event strategy that brings readers through the door while supporting authors.

I have been on Bookstagram since 2019, building real relationships with authors, readers, publishers, and the indie bookish community. I read over 250 books a year (mostly romance!), I truly love books!

That combination is why this template exists and why it's different from anything a general brand strategist or a bookish content creator could have built. It's not just a branding framework applied to authors, or a pretty template. It's actually quite unsexy, but incredibly funcational, built from the inside out, by someone who understands what it actually takes to build a profitable brand, market a book, grow a reader community, and run a profitable creative business all at the same time.
