Hire the best business book ghostwriters

If you’ve made it to this page, you already know the open secret of the publishing industry: the fact that many of the business books and ebooks out in the world weren’t written by the authors credited on the cover. Instead, they were written by professional business book ghostwriters, tasked with relaying the knowledge, ideas, and subject matter expertise of their clients through their writing. If you’ve got thoughts to share about leadership, money, helping a company get to the top of its industry, and working well with people, a business book ghostwriter can team up with you and help you join the ranks of business leaders, executives, and entrepreneurs who’ve reached a wide audience with their ideas.

This is how the ghostwriting process works: together, you’ll agree on an outline that will appeal to your target audience. The ghostwriter will ask you a number of questions to gather all the information they’re going to need about your experience in the field, learning your voice and world. They’ll begin to write the business book manuscript, occasionally sharing pages with you for revisions or to clarify a particular point. Depending on the timeline you’ve agreed to, they’ll ensure a full manuscript draft is ready in time for your deadline, allowing for required changes. It’s completely up to you whether you want to publish this book in print or as a downloadable ebook you’ll list on your business website.

To hire a business book ghostwriter, check out our marketplace here at Reedsy. We accept only the top 3% of applicants, ensuring our ghostwriters have the skills and ability to help you make an impact. Our professionals are behind many of the titles on New York Times bestsellers lists, and your book could be the next project they take on, helping grow your platform as a thought and business leader and nonfiction author. Sign up for a free account, browse our ebook writers’ portfolios, request quotes, and discuss any questions you have relating to rights and royalties.
