For CEOs and business owners
Last updated:
Big Impact Books offers book publishing for CEOs and business owners who want a book that opens doors, using about one hour a week of interviews instead of solo writing.
The book is planned around where your business is going next, written in your own voice, guided through publishing, and launched through media and podcast opportunities. Clients quoted on the Big Impact Books website include a mortgage expert, a financial advisor, and a debt solutions founder.
Because a book carries your thinking into rooms you are not in. It earns trust with prospective clients, partners, and media, and it keeps working long after a campaign ends.
Big Impact Books often frames a book as an asset that keeps growing. Most business assets have an expiration date: campaigns end, ad budgets run out, social posts disappear. A book stays in circulation.
“This book would have never happened without Melanie and Big Impact Books. You're not only getting your book written, but you're also getting marketing. You're being set up for success beyond the actual book. It's an all-encompassing program. It was the best investment.”
Definition
A forward-looking business book is written for the work, clients, and opportunities the author wants next, not as a summary of a whole career.
Big Impact Books encourages established CEOs and business owners to ask what they want more of over the next five or ten years, then build the book toward it. That makes the book useful for a growth plan, a new market, or a transition, instead of a memoir that only looks back.
The numbers
Many accomplished leaders know visibility matters but do not enjoy talking about themselves. A book changes the conversation: instead of promoting yourself, you share ideas. Podcast hosts and journalists can interview you about the book, and prospects can read it before they meet you.

“I began working with Melanie in the spring of 2022, before my book came out. Her counsel was one of the key reasons it became an Amazon Best Seller.”
“Melanie is the consummate professional and an All-Star collaborator. She delivered on her promises and did so timely, on budget, and cheerfully. She took an unfinished, rough draft and turned it into a published book that I will forever be proud of.”
