When I hired her to help me publish my book, I was nervous and didn’t have a big vision for the book. I thought I would only quietly release an ebook. She encouraged me to think bigger. To dream bigger. To tell the world my story because so many people needed to hear it and not just my inner circle. Chisom guided me through the final manuscript by making sure my messages were clear, my voice and personality shined through on paper, and helped me gain confidence to know that my book was worthy enough to be published. She was simply amazing throughout the entire process. If you are thinking about writing and publishing a book and don’t know where to start or to do next, definitely schedule a consultation with Chisom. She can walk you through the process and ensure you have a successful book launch." - Ellington Darden, Author, Still Living Longer Stronger "I highly recommend working with Chisom for your book project. This was my first book project and I didn't know the end to end process of how to turn a manuscript into a published book and then to launch it on Amazon and IngramSparks. Chisom explained how it all worked and was very, very patient with myself and my team throughout the entire project. She excels at book editing, proofreading, communication and delivering a very high quality book. I would definitely use her again for any future book projects." Clement DeCrop, Author, The Idea Space: "Chisom was able to execute a super difficult, image heavy (200+) project. There were bumps in the road, but she was able to push through those challenges and deliver a great final product. If you are looking for someone to help coach you or format a book, then Chisom is your person!" I look forward to helping you create a polished, successful book from start to finish! #kindle #ebook #epub #mobi #Amazon #Smashwords #Lulu #KDP #bookdesign #printlayout #book #PDF #ebookdesign #bookpublishing #logo #Indesign #Ingramspark #eBookconversion #eBookformatting #Childrenbooks #typesetting #booklayout #illustrations

    As a transformational Indie Author, I specialize in writing nonfiction, personal/professional development, self-help books. Through my business, Live for Excellence Productions (LFEP), I have written and published a dozen or so books with more under development. Visit https://liveforexcellence (dotcom) /our-publications/books-by-lfep to see a list of my published books. As an author, I was a Quora Top Writer in 2018 and have written over 800 answers and have over 1.3 million views of my answers. As an experienced author and self-publisher, I provide coaching & consulting services to authors who need hand-holding as they publish their books, or I can do it all for them, i.e., start to finish. I offer a full range of book publishing and marketing services. Available deliverables: (non-fiction only) - book marketing - book editing - copywriting - B2B marketing - content writing - proofreading/copyediting - website creation & development (Joomla! & WordPress) - Amazon keyword and book category research - Amazon ads campaign management - book description copywriting - author platform development & consultation - book formatting via Vellum for electronic and paperback versions, i.e., PDF - manuscript uploading & metadata insertion for Amazon, Draft2Digital, IngramSpark, Lulu, Smashwords - personal branding - policy & procedure manual development - employee guideline manual development As a book self-publisher/marketer consultant/coach, my approach is a teaching one where I show you how to do the seemingly hundreds of steps involved in publishing your book and marketing it yourself. By investing in yourself and learning these tactics, you won’t need to hire somebody like me to do it for you in the future. I go beyond what other freelancer book marketing coaches have to offer. I offer a 12-week self-publishing/book marketing coaching program. While I say 12-week, it depends on the client’s progress. They may finish the program earlier, or they may take longer to complete. I’m flexible with the program delivery. I believe the author’s platform forms the basis of your book marketing strategies. We start with maximizing your LinkedIn profile, your Amazon author profile, and the About Me section on your author’s website. You do have an author’s website, don’t you? How about individual landing pages for each of your publications? Well, don’t worry if you don’t. As a website developer, I currently have fifteen or so websites online promoting my books and business ventures. I am experienced in Joomla! and WordPress website development. Over the years, I have created 50-60 websites and have served as the Webmaster for several nonprofit organizations. I can assist you in maximizing your websites and showing you how to do it yourself, saving you money by hiring high-priced website developers. My coaching program integrates your website, your blog and develops your social media presence. We dive deep into your current Amazon book descriptions, revitalizing them as necessary, and focus on your keywords and the book categories you have submitted. Did you know you can post your book and up to 10 categories on Amazon? You were only allowed 2 categories when you originally uploaded your book. We look at different strategies for marketing your book, both free ones and paid ones. Towards the end of the program, we explore tactics to help you become recognized as an expert in your field by participating in social media conversations and becoming featured as a guest on podcasts in your subject area. I believe in fair compensation for exemplary work. If you hire me for your project, you will find me to be a detail-oriented person who does his best to make your project a success. I can’t guarantee you will be a best-selling author. I can ensure that upon completion of this 12-week program, you will have the foundations to be a successful author. However, you define success. Let’s work together!

    I am passionate about the craft of writing and believe in the power of telling stories. I believe we are the sum of our stories. Writing is one way to express your journey, vision, opinions and ideas. Perhaps it is even the most powerful instrument there is. I was previously a reporter for Reuters, the world's biggest independent news organization, for nearly 13 years. I am skilled in writing, editing and reporting, having worked at the highest levels under tight deadlines. I was part of a team that won the Canadian Best in Business award in 2016 for excellence in journalism, in the beat reporting category, given by the Society of American Business Editors and Writers (SABEW). I was nominated for the Reuters Journalist of the Year global awards in 2017. While I tend to be very selective, I am fairly open to any type of writing, editing or book publishing initiatives. I may gravitate towards ambitious projects. I have the ability to accurately communicate your vision to a targeted group or a broader audience. I can quickly deliver world-class writing and produce something that you can be proud of. There are things I bring to the table that not many writers on this platform can come close to providing. I have deep connections in the publishing industry, including with literary agents. I have helped an author get a book deal with the world's biggest publisher. I reported and edited a book for which I did an email interview with a prime minister. Great writing transcends time and space, breaking old stereotypes, capturing unique visions and leaving a legacy for future generations. If you are thinking big or if you thinking you may have a book within you, I'd encourage you to reach out. I might be able to help you share your story with the world.
