YOUR PROJECT, DEFINED

What’s included.

01

Author positioning

Clarify the themes, readership, and long-term direction of the author’s work.

02

Biography and messaging

Develop a biography and core messages that can stay consistent across channels.

03

Visual direction and usage guide

Translate the identity into practical visual choices and an agreed usage reference.

IS THIS THE RIGHT FIT?

Built around
your starting point.

For authors building a consistent identity across books, a website, and public-facing materials.

Branding begins with what your work stands for and whom it serves. Messaging and visual direction should make that identity easier to recognize without reducing your writing to a slogan.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN

Your questions, answered.

Is branding only for established authors?

No. A clear biography and consistent presentation can help a first-time author make thoughtful choices across a website, cover, and launch.

What should I send for a quote?

For author branding, share your goals, any existing material, your intended audience, and the formats you need. Mention any deadlines so feasibility can be discussed.

What will I receive from author branding?

The proposed scope covers author positioning, biography and messaging, visual direction and usage guide. Your written agreement confirms the file formats, handoff requirements and any exclusions before work starts.

How are revisions and timelines agreed?

We review the material and scope first, then agree on milestones and feedback rounds in the proposal. Send consolidated comments at each review stage; additional work or a changed brief is quoted separately.

Can I combine this with another service?

Yes. Connected stages can be discussed together, with a clear boundary between each deliverable. Explore the related services below or describe the full project in your inquiry.
