Book Proposals

Non-fiction is almost always sold “on proposal.” That means you get to show publishers what you plan to write, but don’t actually have to write it until you get a book deal. It’s pretty awesome.

But there’s a catch.

Your proposal, which outlines all the details of your project, has to be so insanely good that editors fall in love with it and believe that readers will, too.

The problem? Most writers can’t get there alone. They simply don’t think like business proposal writers.

This is where I come in.

With a background in publishing, business, and marketing (former marketing director for Harley-Davidson), I have a knack for seamlessly combining the necessary elements to make your work pop.

I’m honestly a total book proposal geek 🙂 

I have sold five books of my own on proposal plus have helped countless others make their book deal dreams come true, too.

Most of my clients are referred to me by literary agents who know that I know how to to things right.

“Amy is my secret sales weapon!”

“I always send authors to Amy before we hit the market.”

“Amy’s brain works in just the right way to make any project pop.”

I work closely with clients to co-create the perfect proposal.

We will do all the writing and editing together … pinging it back and forth until it’s perfect. I’ll help you carve out the best angle for the book along with the marketing plan, audience, and which chapters are best for you to write to include as your sample chapters, and so much more.

Together, we’ll pull all the pieces together in the most interesting and effective way.

We’ll work together in smart, digestible steps to not only get your proposal done; but get it done right.
