Here is how I guide my clients
Ann Lamb (Hobbs)
Ghostwriter to coaches and therapists to write their book that will help them grow their business
Writing a book is a powerful way for coaches and therapists to share their expertise, expand their reach, and establish themselves as thought leaders. However, many professionals feel overwhelmed when they first consider turning their knowledge into a book. That’s where I come in to guide them through the writing process while ensuring their authentic voice shines through.
The journey begins with understanding my client’s vision. Every coach and therapist has a unique story to tell and a distinctive way of connecting with their audience. Through in-depth conversations, I help clients clarify their book's purpose, identify their target readers, and outline the key messages they want to convey. This initial step ensures that the book aligns with their professional goals and personal brand.
2. Crafting a Clear Roadmap
One of the most intimidating parts of writing a book is knowing where to start. I break down the writing process into manageable steps, creating a clear and structured outline. This roadmap serves as a guide throughout the journey, helping clients stay focused and organized. Whether the book is a practical guide, a memoir, or a combination of both, a well-planned structure makes the process less overwhelming.
3. Providing Ongoing Support and Feedback
As clients begin writing, I offer continuous support to keep them on track. Regular check-ins help address any challenges, from overcoming writer’s block to refining complex ideas. I also provide detailed feedback to ensure the content is clear, engaging, and true to their voice. My role is not just to edit but to empower clients to express their insights with confidence.
4. Balancing Guidance with Creative Freedom
I believe that a book should reflect the author’s unique perspective. While I offer guidance on structure, tone, and clarity, I also encourage creative freedom. My approach is collaborative—I listen closely to my clients' ideas and work with them to ensure their book feels authentic and meaningful.
5. Navigating the Publishing Process
Writing the final chapter is just the beginning. I also guide clients through the next steps of the publishing process, whether they choose traditional publishing or self-publishing. From preparing a polished manuscript to understanding the nuances of book marketing, I ensure clients feel supported every step of the way.
For many coaches and therapists, writing a book is not just about sharing knowledge, it’s about leaving a legacy. I am honored to be part of that journey, helping clients turn their experiences and insights into a lasting contribution. If you’ve ever dreamed of writing a book but don’t know where to start, I’m here to guide you through the process and make that dream a reality.
