"I am so grateful for the time and effort you put into editing my book. Thank you for your encouragement and support throughout the editing process. I enjoyed working with you, and I am SO proud of the final manuscript."
–Erin Eileen Leigh, author of Navigating the Newborn Months and Beyond
"I loved the comments Jessica made about what to add/amend. Together we found the right language for my target readers. I really felt she understood the tough job of writing a book, and I always felt that my book was a priority for her. Best of all, the product I got back was awesome. The whole experience was seamless, and the support I got throughout and at the end was amazing. Jessica went the extra mile."
–Charles Serocold, author of A History of the United States for Newcomers and founder of History in a Heartbeat
"Before working with Jessica, I felt good about the message of my book, but I knew my writing needed a lot of work. I needed it done fast, and Jessica made it happen. She sent me her progress so I always knew what part of the book she was working on. When we were finished, my manuscript finally felt suitable for my readers. She made it easy, and I would absolutely recommend her."
–Kateryna Armenta, author of I Know What You Need To Succeed and 100 Walls To Be Broken and founder of Ambitious WE
*Developmental Editing = a high-level manuscript edit to solve for big-picture issues, like structure, organization, and flow. Developmental editing is included in Brand Book Bootcamp!

I can't wait to see you craft a timeless, core, one-and-done Brand Book you can reference, repurpose, and leverage endlessly with BRAND BOOK BOOTCAMP.
I'm an editor-turned-book-coach from the USA who moved to France one day in 2010 and never looked back.
Since starting my business four years ago, I have worked with authors all over the world on dozens of books.
As the founder of Brand Book Bootcamp, I serve entrepreneurs who want to replace their content marketing with a “Brand Book” which will position them as a go-to voice and attract ideal clients on autopilot.
When you're doing it alone, the self-publishing process is daunting. Having to learn the ins and outs of structuring a manuscript, shopping for an editor, getting your book formatted, and choosing your distribution platform... it's enough to make anyone quit before they even get started! Brand Book Bootcamp gives you the shortcut to all of these steps: you'll get a plug-and-play outline template for your manuscript, plus my recommendations for editors and formatters, as well as my self-publishing insight on our Wrap-up call in Month 6.
Be honest... do you really want to do another "client avatar" exercise? Do you really want to lurk the forums of Reddit for little crumbs of market research you can throw into your copystalking spreadsheet? I don't! I want this part to be fun, collaborative, and motivating! I'll show you how to do market research the easy way in Brand Book Bootcamp.
Most people get as far as ye olde academic formula of Intro + Body + Conclusion, only to get instantly demotivated. How long do you think you could keep yourself accountable to writing from an outline you're not even sure is strategic? In Brand Book Bootcamp, you'll get access to my 4 plug-and-play outline templates that show you exactly how to organize your Brand Book in a strategic way based on your goals.
You can't be sure you're ideas are coming across to your readers the way you want them to. No one comes out of the womb knowing how to edit their own writing. In Brand Book Bootcamp, you'll get my edits each week. I'm going to tell you exactly which parts of your manuscript need revising, and how.
If you've DIYed it this far, you definitely know it's time to get support now! But who you gonna call? How do you know which service providers you need? Who's worth their salt? How much time will you spend vetting them? As a Brand Book Bootcamp client, you are going to get my insider list of industry pros to copyedit, proofread, design, and market your book.
If you have waited this long to start marketing your book, you've lost months already. Marketing a book is a little bit of a different beast. Do you know what kind of content will sell your book? In Brand Book Bootcamp, you'll get started marketing your book right away with the From Page To Post content marketing system which will give you ideas and templates to market your book during our service as well as afterward.
(And maybe you know that already because you've started and stopped your Brand Book so many times, you've lost count. I know, the struggle is real... Now it's time to STOP bootstrapping your Brand Book and get the right support, with Brand Book Bootcamp!)
Truthbomb: It will take you years to write your book without the proper support, accountability, and feedback.
The container for this service is 6 months by design. I am going to take you by the hand and show you how easy it is to plug your ideas into my templates and write a succinct, impactful book (NOT epic poetry... a quick win for your readers in a conversational tone... you, on the page).
You're an established entrepreneur with experience creating content for social media.
You don't need a writing degree. You should have a clear idea on whom your business serves and how. You should feel excited about the prospect of having your very own Brand Book, and willing to put in the effort to write it yourself (with my help!).
You're not alone—ROI is the #1 question I get asked!
There's intangible ROI (like the transformative and often therapeutic experience of writing a book, and the joy of serving your audience in an accessible way) and tangible ROI (making your money back). A Brand Book is another "loss leader" in your offer suite: done right, it will sell your high-ticket offers on the back end.
Pros don't wait to be inspired. They design their own inspiration.
Brand Book Bootcamp is designed to push you, and you will rise to the challenge. This book is for your BUSINESS. It's your job to grow your business, so it's your job to write the book NOW that will make sales for you on autopilot in a matter of months, not years. I will give you everything you need to know what to write about. Waiting around for inspiration to strike is for amateurs, not entrepreneurs.
It's totally fine if this is your first time writing a book!
Most of my editing clients for the past 3+ years have been first-time authors. They were self-taught, and they had both the desire and the drive to write one hell of a Brand Book. If they can do it, so can YOU! I will give you feedback every step of the way.
If you can write content for social media, you can write a Brand Book.
I get that it's hard to talk about yourself. This isn't a term paper or a corporate white paper. You'll write in an easy, conversational tone. I will help you craft your Founder's Story by interviewing you with strategic questions to draw out the right prose for your Introduction.
Unless you're writing a fiction novel, I promise your Brand Book idea will fit into 1 of the 4 types of Brand Books I've identified in 4+ years as an editor on these books.
Strategize with me on our first call, the Brand Book Blueprint call, and I will coach you on how to identify your type of Brand Book.
Let me be clear: making time in your schedule will be our first order of business inside Brand Book Bootcamp.
My content planning system will make room in your schedule AND give you tons of ideas for content that seeds the launch of your book without having to reinvent the wheel.
This service is NOT intended for folks who wish to get a book deal from a traditional publisher.
(Traditional publishers just want to see your book plans, so you should not write your manuscript before submitting to them.) After Brand Book Bootcamp, you should self-publish your book on your website and/or with another retailer such as Amazon, Barnes & Noble, etc.
We will have 4 calls together (plus a bonus call if you choose the Pay in Full option). I will also provide weekly asynchronous feedback in the form of inline comments on your manuscript and personalized Loom videos.
I recommend dedicating 1–3 hours per week on implementing the Brand Book Bootcamp method.
You can choose to pay $5000 in full when you book the service, OR you can choose the payment plan with a first payment of $917 and then 5 monthly installments of $917. All prices in USD.
To make sure that your readers stay engaged and that your Brand Book is actionable for them, plan to write between 25K and 60K words.
Under normal circumstances, you will be able to finish the first draft of your Brand Book manuscript in the 6 months allotted. There are no extensions, but you may choose to book another Brand Book Bootcamp service according to my availabilities and prevailing rate.
A timeless, core, one-and-done piece of content you can reference, repurpose, and leverage endlessly. It's a book you will use to promote your brand or business.
We do not offer refunds at any time or for any reason. No exceptions.
Nothing fancy! We're working in one Google Doc so that either of us can access the work in progress at any time to review, without having to wait to receive individual files and without risking sending outdated versions of the manuscript.
Personal brands, CEOs, coaches, service providers, course creators, spiritual leaders, and more!
Although I will give you my feedback (the industry jargon would be developmental editing) throughout the writing process, copyediting and proofreading are not included in this service.
On our wrap-up call, we will discuss your next steps after your Brand Book Bootcamp service has ended. I will provide you my recommendations for editing, design, and launching (these specific services are not included in Brand Book Bootcamp).
Although today it is 100% my preference and my conviction that you should write your book yourself, I have no way of controlling whether you choose to use AI. However, you do so at your own risk. It is your responsibility to understand and abide by any AI-related regulation when you distribute your book. I release all liability for books created in my service with any amount of AI-generated content.
If you follow the Brand Book Bootcamp process and complete the assignments, there is no reason why you will not finish your Brand Book in 6 months!
I have designed this service specifically so that you can write your Brand Book from start to finish in 6 months. I want to work with folks who are Ready. To. Write. You are going to challenge yourself to do this in 6 months because creating a Brand Book is a longer process overall (there's editing, designing, launching, marketing, etc.).
Through the Brand Book Bootcamp, I will support you with accountability, calls, and editorial feedback every step of the way.
You can attempt to craft a Brand Book yourself... costing you months if not years of sitting around, waiting for inspiration to strike, wondering why it's so hard and realizing you could have been making high-ticket sales and leveraging speaking gigs from your Brand Book by now.
You can work with moi inside of BRAND BOOK BOOTCAMP and spend the next 6 months crafting a Brand Book that will establish your credibility, get you speaking on stages, and make more sales for you on autopilot in a matter of months, not years.
