Transforming ideas into
Don’t just write a book. Write the thought leadership book your industry needs.
We help visionaries transform the seed of an idea into a manuscript they’re proud of. If you’re looking for thinking partners who know where to start – and how to finish a great, game-changing book – then you’re in the right place.
How do I know if my idea will work as a book?
Where do I start?
How should I write it?
What do I need to know about publishing?
The trouble with being a big thinker is that the ideas never stop coming. That can make focusing on a great book topic a challenge.
If you have questions, concerns, and ideas swarming around, we’re here to help you set them straight. So that you can get started on what really matters – bringing together the best version of your ideas for the readers you care about.
We’re not here to make cookie cutter books.
There are endless options when it comes to book-writing and they often come with flashy promises. But we know that truly great books require time, deep thinking, and iteration.
We won’t encourage you to write your book in 90 days.
We don’t force manuscripts into any sort of templates.
And we will never let you settle for “good-enough.”
At Intelligent Ink, we have only one promise to offer: By the time you’re finished, you will have a powerful and unique manuscript that you’re proud to share. You will have written your best book.
Who are our authors?
We support business owners, speakers, thought leaders, and solopreneurs across the globe. Our network of authors have gone on to win Business Book Awards, appear on bestseller lists, and leverage their books to grow their businesses.
Why Intelligent Ink?
We haven’t always been all about books. As a thought leadership agency turned book collaborative, we approach books with a strategic lens and a view to what will help you make the biggest difference in your world. When we discovered the accelerated impact that books had for our clients, we invested years of development into the book-writing process. Over the last seven years, we have helped 20 authors (and counting!) to complete their manuscripts and bring their best books to their audience.
Our mission?
To bring better thinking into the world. We know that books carry the power to spur big conversations, meaningful action, and purposeful change.

“I approached Intelligent Ink to help write my book because I needed accountability to keep pushing me to get a chapter out even when I felt like I had no time… At some points I would second guess whether my story was worth telling – and then the edited chapter would come back better than I had imagined.

Her editing skills were breathtaking… her advice; she was critical but in a really kind way. I really needed that person to challenge my thinking. I could not recommend Intelligent Ink and

“Writing a book – creating a physical representation of your thoughts for all to see – is a very personal journey; but you don’t have to make that journey alone.
