A Book Planning Intensive is a VIP Day for your book plan.
Each one looks a bit different, because every business owner and book is different. During our time together we can refine your idea, create or finalize a table of contents, create a writing schedule and/or production schedule, among many other tasks to get your book idea out of your head, onto your computer, and then into book form so you can use it to market your business.
A Book Planning Intensive typically includes but is not limited to:
Outline/working table of contents creation
Calendar/research and writing schedule [assuming 1K words/writing session]
Path to publication (traditional, self, or hybrid)
Book positioning study
Title/subtitle/keywords/categories
Book elevator pitch
Goals (author’s and readers’)
Ideal readers/primary book audience
Chapter takeaways
Production schedule
Beta feedback
As time allows and depending on your preferences, we can discuss the following topics: *(This allows us to customize the agenda based on your needs and preferences.)*

Timeline
Before we meet, I'll send prep work for you to complete so we can maximize our time together. We'll spend three hours together on a day of your choosing, and you'll have follow-up support via email and Voxer, as well as check-in calls four, eight, and twelve weeks after your Intensive.
