Your Business Deserves More Than a Brochure.
Let’s Turn It Into a Book.
A professionally ghostwritten, AI-assisted book that builds trust, educates your audience, and elevates your brand.
No writing required.
No fluff.
Just results.
What’s a Branded Business Book?
A Branded Business Book is a professionally ghostwritten, AI-assisted book that tells your business story, educates your customers, and builds lasting trust. You don’t have to write anything—we create your book using a guided intake process, then design and format it for print and Kindle. Whether you run a service-based business or online brand, this book becomes a marketing tool you can hand out, share digitally, or use to turn leads into loyal clients.
Is This for You?
This is for small business owners, service providers, and online entrepreneurs who want to turn their expertise into a trust-building asset—without writing a book from scratch.
Branded Business Books are perfect if you...
-
Run a service-based business or personal brand
-
Want a book that educates and builds credibility
-
Don’t have time to write but have a lot to say
-
Need a leave-behind for networking, speaking, or sales
-
Want to be seen as the expert in your space
This is probably not for you if...
-
You’re looking to publish a memoir or personal healing journey
-
You want to write a full manuscript yourself
-
You’re hoping for traditional publishing or bookstore placement
-
You’re not ready to invest in professional positioning
Why a Book Works Better Than a Brochure
Most marketing materials get skimmed—or tossed. A book gets kept. It educates, builds trust, and creates authority. Unlike a business card or flyer, a book makes a lasting impression—and positions you as the expert, not just another option.
Books build trust because they...
-
Get passed around, not thrown away
-
Let people learn at their own pace
-
Tell your story and explain your process
-
Answer questions before the sales call
-
Show you take your business seriously
-
Set you apart from your competition

To those that are interested in taking a step of faith into their creativeness and ability to express what dwells inside them, I highly recommend this opportunity to allow your inner author to be exposed. The guidance Kyra gave me was personable and extremely helpful as I had dreamed of writing but never felt safe to express myself this way. Thank you Kyra and to all the other authors that helped me in this journey!

Being a part of Own Your Awesome was truly exhilarating. I am someone who has never written anything on that large of a platform. I never thought that my words would be read by so many. The process was organized and I felt supported every step of the way. I am extremely grateful for the opportunity. I hope to be a part of the next one!

Our Journey: Turning Grief into Inspiration and Making Dreams Come True
Meet Todd & Kyra Schaefer
In the face of tragedy, we found a way to honor a dear friend's memory. When she tragically passed away, we couldn't help but feel that her voice had more to share in this world. She was passionate about writing and collaboration, so we rallied our friends and embarked on a mission to create a collaboration book that touched on themes of loss, love, self-healing, and joy. To our delight, it became a bestseller on day one, and we were over the moon.
But that was just the beginning.
We discovered a community of people like us—passionate about writing but unsure how to start and even less certain about how to become a published author. Once we cracked the code of publishing, we realized that we could help others achieve their dreams too.
We write, we dream, we laugh, we get seen, and we tell our stories. It's been nothing short of a miracle. And now, we want to share that miracle with you.

Frequently Asked Questions
"What if I’ve never written anything before?"
That’s okay! This book is about real experiences, real emotions, and real stories—not about being a perfect writer. Many of our past contributors were first-time authors, and their stories have deeply impacted readers. If you can share your journey, you can write for this book!
"I’ve never been published before. Can I still participate?"
Absolutely! This collaboration is designed for both new and experienced writers. You’ll be guided every step of the way! We make the process simple and supportive, handling all the technical details so you can focus on telling your story with confidence.
"How do I know if my story will be good enough?"
If it comes from your heart, it’s good enough. You don’t need a life-altering event to write something meaningful. Your personal growth, small victories, and lessons learned will resonate with others. If it mattered to you, it will matter to someone else.
"What if I don’t have time to write a full chapter?"
That’s the beauty of a collaboration book! You’re contributing just one short piece, not writing an entire book. Many of our past contributors completed their stories in just a couple of sittings. Your story doesn’t have to be long to be impactful—even a short but heartfelt piece can inspire and make a difference. We provide word count guidelines to help you shape your submission with ease.
"What if I’ve been published by a different publisher before?"
That’s no problem! Your previous publishing experience doesn’t affect your ability to contribute. As long as your chapter is original and unpublished, you retain full ownership even after it's included in this book. You’re free to republish it anywhere—whether in another book, on your blog, or in future works. This collaboration simply gives you another platform to share your message and reach new audiences with your new writing.
"Will I get support from other authors in the book?"
Yes! One of the best parts of joining a collaboration book is the community of like-minded authors. You’ll connect with people who share similar journeys, and many of our past contributors have built lasting friendships and business connections.
"Will I have to market this book by myself?"
No! While we encourage authors to share the book with their networks, we handle the majority of the marketing, promotions, and book launch efforts. You’ll be part of a team that supports and uplifts each other to ensure success.
Join us!
We know taking the leap to share your story can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to do it alone. We are here to support, guide, and celebrate you on this journey.
