“Writing a book can feel lonely and disorienting. I'm incredibly fortunate that Bethany Saltman came into my life precisely when I needed her most, when I had a proposal that my agent and former editor couldn't see as a potential book. After just three sessions of us working together, I changed the approach and the proposal sold. Now we're working together as I breathe life into my second book.

“Bethany Saltman has partnered with me for three books, first helping me land deals with major publishers, and then as a writing guide. All three are bestsellers. What I have by hiring Bethany is a strategist. First she pushes me to map out the big picture of my brand before diving into the details, and provides coaching, asking me tough questions to keep me on task. The result is a clear idea and direction of brand and platform, which helped me land the books as well as compelling consulting projects and keynote speaking gigs. Bethany is a true partner.”
