Architect Your Book Before You Write It
With Toni Robino, the Thought Leader’s Book Architect
A strategic, collaborative process for thought leaders, change-makers and visionaries who want to write books that will help them fulfill their vision of a better world. Writing a great book starts long before the first sentence is written. It starts with clarity about your concept, your audience, and what sets your book apart. I work with founders, leaders and big thinkers to develop the kind of blueprint that makes a book valuable, marketable and unforgettable.
Through a structured, personalized coaching process, we’ll shape your book’s hook, title, message, and table of contents, ensuring that what you write connects and resonates with your target audience.
Architecture Matters
Writing without a plan is like building without blueprints. Many first-time authors begin the writing too soon and then stall out, change direction or produce something that doesn’t feel cohesive. The architecture process helps you:
• Clarify your big idea and message
• Identify and define your target readers
• Sharpen your book’s hook and selling point
• Design a compelling structure and table of contents
• Generate strong titles, chapter plans and marketing angles
By the end, you’ll have a blueprint that gives your book shape, strength and a clear path forward, whether you’re writing it yourself or with a professional collaborator.
Why This Proven Process Works
Rather than a checklist of tasks, the process is a guided exploration where insight happens through collaboration. In the course of writing twenty-seven books and coaching dozens of authors, I’ve learned that people often can't see what’s most powerful in their own thinking, and that’s where I come in. Through our work together, I’ll help you uncover the gems, sharpen the through line and create a framework that supports your creative process and long-term goals.
How It Works
• We meet virtually for twelve to fourteen 45-minute coaching sessions, typically over three to five months (flexible for your schedule).
• You complete assignments between sessions and I provide direction and guidance.
• You come away with a detailed, customized blueprint to follow in writing your book or your book proposal, if you’re seeking a traditional publishing contract.
This process is ideal for you if:
• You’re a thought leader, expert, change-maker or visionary with a big idea you want to turn into a book
• You’re writing a prescriptive, inspirational or thought leadership book
• You want the book to reflect your thinking at its sharpest and stand the test of time
