Book Proposal 1:1 Session - Half Day.

Are you standing at the start of your book writing journey, wondering how to shape your ideas into something powerful?

You know your topic, but perhaps feel unsure of how to organise it, or how to position it for your readers - and for yourself.

Whether you’re self-publishing, or aiming for a traditional deal, a book proposal can be your best friend. It’s the tool that gives your book purpose & structure and gives you momentum and a real excitement to write.

My book proposal and book mapping sessions are where your ideas and intentions come together and start to sing.

Let's take a deep dive into your book proposal.

In this focused, 3 hour session, we’ll dive into all of the essential elements that will make your proposal clear and compelling - whether for agents, publishers or for your own clarity.

Together, we’ll uncover what makes your book stand out, which will help you to write it with confidence. You’ll leave with a solid proposal outline, a clear next steps plan and a fresh excitement about your book.

Should you write a book proposal?

Even if you plan to self publish?

If you plan to secure a publishing deal with a traditional or hybrid publisher, a book proposal is essential. However, should you write a book proposal, even if you're self publishing? Yes, absolutely, 100%, definitely, is there even any question???

So, it's pretty clear where I stand on this!

All of my book coaching clients work on a book proposal and it really does make a huge difference. Here is why . . .

It Gives Your Book a Clear Focus

A book proposal helps you gain clarity on your book’s purpose, audience and message. Who is this book for? Why does it matter? How does it stand out in your profession or genre? Answering these questions from the outset will keep your writing focused and intentional.

It Saves You Time (and Stress!)

Without a solid plan, writing a book can quickly become overwhelming. A proposal helps you outline the structure of your book before you begin, reducing the risk of unnecessary rewriting or uncertainty along the way. Knowing your 'why' leads to a much clearer knowing of your 'how'.

It Sets You Up for Bigger Opportunities

Even if you’re self-publishing, a book proposal can open doors. It provides a professional framework to present your book to media contacts, secure bulk sales, or even attract a publisher in the future, should you choose that path.

It Strengthens Your Marketing Strategy

A book proposal isn’t just about the book itself - it’s about the impact the book will have. It helps you plan how you’ll use your book to grow your business, attract clients and position yourself as a thought leader or a new star in a particular genre. You’ll develop a clear roadmap for getting your book into the hands of the right people, whether through speaking engagements, media coverage, partnerships or other marketing efforts.

It Keeps You Accountable and Motivated

Writing a book is a long process, and without a clear plan, it’s easy to lose momentum. A proposal acts as your guide, helping you stay focused and move forward with confidence.

If you’re investing time and energy into writing a book, you want to do it with purpose. A book proposal gives you the clarity, strategy and structure to ensure your book works for you - before you even write the first word.
