A proposal for Natalie Louie

The book the Fortune 1000 is waiting for.

A practical pricing playbook from one of the few women defining this space — built to land you on stages, raise your fees, and bring the right C-level inboxes to you.

In your words

I come in with five or ten bullet points. This is where we go to grow your revenue. Ask these questions. This is how you do it.

Tien wrote the history. Amy wrote the subscription playbook. Robbie wrote the membership angle.

Yours is the one that puts the bullet points in the executive's hand.

The book we'd build

Built for the desk it'll sit on.

Under 200 pages

Sized for the people who'll actually read it.

Practical, not theoretical

Frameworks that read like your signature talk.

Designed for the C-suite

Cover, trim, and interior built for a Fortune 1000 desk. Not a paperback rack.

The real question

Sequencing the career, not just the book.

You asked whether to chase paid speaking first, or write the book first. You've heard both answers from people you respect. Here's where we land:

Speaking fees rise after the book. TED talks go viral with a book. LinkedIn audiences compound because of a book. The companies hiring keynote speakers want authors on their stages. That's the profile.

The book isn't the next thing on your list. It's the thing that lets you cross most of the list off.

Launch

What launch actually looks like.

  • Multi-category Amazon bestseller strategy. You'll hit #1 in at least one.
  • Inner-circle activation through your LinkedIn network. Same playbook that produced 2,000 pre-sales for another author.
  • Categories chosen for B2B exec searchability, not vanity volume.
  • No BookBub. No Goodreads giveaways. No Forbes vanity plays.
