Most leaders arrive thinking they just need a book. What they discover is there's one idea hiding inside their work that could change everything.

​​​​​​​The book is how it finally becomes visible to the world ... and how the right people finally find you.

If your audience can’t define you, they won’t choose you. Let’s fix that.
Our clients featured on:

You've ALREADY PROVEN you're CAPABLE.

So why aren't the opportunities coming the way they should?

keyboard_arrow_right
What you've built no longer reflects what you really want to be known for.
keyboard_arrow_right
You can feel the next level. You just can't quite name it yet.
keyboard_arrow_right
What used to work doesn't fully work anymore.
keyboard_arrow_right
You could grow this but something about it feels off.
keyboard_arrow_right
It's not burnout. It's that you've outgrown what you built.
keyboard_arrow_right
There's something bigger inside your work but it's still just out of reach.
.

When the RIGHT IDEA becomes clear, EVERYTHING CHANGES.

Your message lands. The right people respond. Opportunities start to align. Not because you're doing more, but because everything is finally built on something that works.
That's the moment you stop explaining yourself  and start being chosen.

 Meet NICOLE GEBHARDT 

When you've built something from the inside, you can't see it the way the market does.

Nicole has spent three decades sitting with hundreds of founders, physicians, consultants, and executives and the pattern is almost always the same. The expertise is undeniable. The track record is solid. But from inside the jar, you can't read the label.

That's what Nicole does. She sees what you've built from the outside  the bigger idea, the stronger position, the one thing worth organizing everything around. Then her team of 19+ specialists makes sure it shows up in every page, every design, and every strategic decision.

You don't just get a book.
You finally have a direction you can run with.

She's also the speaker behind the TEDx talk, Write the Book That Rewrites You.

"It wasn't the book I initially wanted to write. It was the book I should write for my audience. ​​​​Eighteen months later I'm still using it as active leverage in my business."
​​​​​​​- MATT DICKERSON – Author, Valued
"Nicole is one of the best business strategists I know. She has an amazing ability to ask the right questions that create flashes of deep insight. This wasn't just a writing challenge. It was a strategic redesign."
- KRIS TAYLOR – Leadership Consultant, Author, Owning It!
"It's not like, 'Here's how you put 35,000 words into a book.' It's everything else – should you even write 35,000 words? Nicole got me thinking about my full marketing system and how to move people along."

OUR APPROACH

Where are you right now?

Most people come to us from one of these places.

01

You can feel the next level.
You just can't name it yet.

You know something bigger is there. You just can't see what to build around.

02

You want a book.
​​​​​​​You want to get it right.

You have ideas – maybe too many. Before you write, you need the one that works.

03

You have a manuscript. You're not sure what to do with it.
The draft is almost done. Now it's about making it actually work.
We limit new engagements to four to six each quarter.
If one of these is you, apply.

It's not just a book you'll be proud of.
​​​​​​​It's what that book makes possible.

The right book can change everything.™

Jill E. McMahon

"I have a lot of amazing things to say … I just didn't believe I could deliver them on the page. A year later, I came out with an award-winning 200-page book that will change lives. The process made me determined, capable, and invigorated."

Jill E. McMahon, LPC

Grief and Trauma Specialist, and Speaker
Award-winning author of Bulletproof

Bree Rosenblum

"I decided to write this book twice – once when I decided to write a book, and once when I decided to write this book. You can't get to the this book without the a book. Since starting this book, I launched a new business, a nonprofit, and won three book awards — including Best New Nonfiction."

Ben Butterfield

"Day one, I had no idea. How do you make tax interesting at all? Is anyone gonna want to pick it up? But then by the end it's like — this is pretty good, I like this. I do know this stuff. I can help. That whole process of my own internal transformation was huge."

Ben Butterfield

Tax Resolution Specialist
Author of OOPS

Andrea Liebross

"Writing a book was not on my bucket list – and I'm not sure I believed I could do it. But the process didn't just produce a book. It clarified my entire framework, rebuilt how I think about my business, and gave me what I can only describe as a whole other category of confidence that I hadn't really experienced yet. Two years later I've been on over a hundred podcasts, spoken across the country, and She Thinks Big is now my trademarked brand."

Andrea Liebross

Life and Business Coach
Author of She Thinks Big

Dan Ritchie

"[My partner and I] had PhDs, a fitness studio, and a belief that 70 million baby boomers were about to age differently – and no one was paying attention yet. The books changed that. They got us on the stages we couldn't get to before, built a certification used by trainers in 33 countries, and turned a local idea into a global movement. Eight years later, the largest fitness education company in the world made us an offer we couldn't refuse."

Dan Ritchie, PhD

Co-Founder, Functional Aging Institute

Johnny Klemme

"It was a vulnerable moment to put your words out there. But it's definitely accomplishing the goals we set out to accomplish. I send the book to every potential client – unannounced. In one case, it arrived the day before they met with our biggest competitor. We got the business. The conversations are just different now. And it's opening doors for the rest of my team too. I wish I'd had this tool years ago."

Johnny Klemme

Amy Carney

"I had five kids, a husband traveling with an NHL team, and a book I'd been almost-finishing for two years. You just don't know where one courageous step can take you. It opened a publishing deal, a digital product line, and speaking opportunities I hadn't imagined – and money that kept coming in even through Covid. Five years later, I'm still getting speaking requests, still selling books, and about to write my next one. That book changed everything about my business."

Amy Carney

Jeremy Keil Mr. Retirement

"It's not like, 'Here's how you put 35,000 words into a book.' It's everything else – should you even write 35,000 words? Nicole got me thinking about my full marketing system and how to move people along."

"It wasn't the book I initially wanted to write. It was the book I should write for my audience. Eighteen months later I'm still using it as active leverage in my business."
