The challenge

A powerful manuscript in a crowded market.

Josée had a message with real potential. Like many first-time authors pursuing traditional publishing, she needed to stand out to agents and publishers and was unsure what a strong proposal required.

The strategy

Built to the standard agents expect.

We created a polished, comprehensive proposal, coached her through how agents and publishers evaluate books, and opened a direct door to a reputable literary agent.
