Peter Winick of Thought Leadership Leverage explains how his consulting firm helps clients write and publish books, from initial concept through marketing. They work with academics, consultants, and speakers to produce bestsellers, and handle everything except traditional agent or publicist roles.
Hi, this is Peter Winick. I'm the founder and CEO of Thought Leadership Leverage. Today, I wanted to talk to you about some of the services that we offer our clients that bring them clarity when dealing with the confusing and somewhat archaic world of publishing. We are not book agents. We are not book publicists. We do not come from the traditional book publishing world of New York publishing houses. We are a consulting firm that works exclusively with authors, speakers, and thought leaders that have content that has a business application. We have been an integral part of dozens and dozens of business books, from ideation all the way through to publishing and targeted distribution. We can help you get published, decide how to publish, work with you on getting the best ghostwriter for you. We can advise and help you shape the content of the book so that it meets your business objectives. We have done everything from designing nationwide 30-city bus tours to developing and deploying laser-focused campaigns that generate 6 and 7 figures worth of business for our clients. We have partnerships with publishers, ghostwriters, and others that we have vetted and we trust. If you're struggling with the confusing, complex, and incredibly frustrating world of book publishing, we can help. Our clients range from multiple New York Times bestsellers to world-renowned academics to boutique consulting firms, and some of the world's most sought-after speakers. All of these folks have written books, yet their objectives and needs are very different, and our specialty is understanding the business goals and objectives that you have and ensuring that your book can and should support your business objectives in a cost-effective way. Very smart people wind up doing very dumb things when it comes to the world of book publishing. The business models of the publishing industry itself are changing rapidly and are not designed to put the author first. Our focus is on you, your goals, your objectives, your success. A book is merely a tool that can help you achieve these goals. If you'd like to learn more about how we can help you navigate the publishing waters, please feel free to email me directly at peter@thoughtleadershipleverage.com. Thank you.
