What Happens
Before, during, and after
Before
Quick Intake Form
You fill out a short questionnaire so I understand your book, your goals, and what's keeping you stuck. I review it before we meet so we don't waste a minute of your hour on context-setting.
During
60-Minute Deep Dive
We tackle your biggest publishing and platform questions head-on. Publishing path decisions, proposal strategy, platform gaps, marketing approach — whatever you need most. Recorded for you to keep.
After
Action Summary
Within 48 hours, you get a written summary of our session — key recommendations, next steps, and any resources I mentioned. A document you can actually use, not just notes from a conversation.
Bring any of these
questions
The consult is completely open. These are the kinds of things people tend to bring — but you're welcome to surprise me.
→
"Should I self-publish, go traditional, or try hybrid?"
→
"My book proposal keeps getting rejected — what am I missing?"
→
"I have a book but no platform. Where do I even start?"
→
"How do I build an audience before my book comes out?"
→
"My book launched and... crickets. What now?"
→
"I want to use AI tools but I don't know where they actually help"
→
"Which of your services is the right fit for me?"
Frequently Asked
Quick answers
Is this a sales call?
No. It's a consulting session. I'll mention relevant services if they genuinely fit your situation, but the purpose is to give you value in the hour, not to pitch you.
What if I decide I want more help afterward?
Your $350 consult fee is credited toward any service you book within 30 days. So if you end up choosing Navigator, Launch Buddy, Relaunch Funnel, or the Studio — the consult was essentially free.
Do I need to have a finished book?
Not at all. Some people come with a concept. Some come with a published backlist. The consult works wherever you are in the process.
How do we meet?
Zoom. I'll send a link after you book. The session is recorded and the recording is yours to keep.
Can I reschedule?
Yes, up to 24 hours before our session. Life happens. Just let me know.
What makes this different from a free discovery call?
Discovery calls are about figuring out if we're a fit. This is a working session — you'll leave with specific, actionable guidance whether or not we ever work together again.
One hour of real clarity.
You've been thinking about this for months. Let's get your questions answered and your next steps clear — in sixty minutes.
