One platform. Built for you.

The book builds authority. We make sure that authority has somewhere to go.

A book gives you credibility. Authority Build makes that credibility useful: a home for your ideas, a way for the right people to find you, and a simple path from reader to client.

Authority questions

What is Authority Build?

Authority Build is a 90-day, done-for-you business build with coaching. You choose seven build items, like a website, a sales funnel, a lead magnet and email automations, and we build them on one platform while coaching you through strategy and positioning. It's delivered by our sister company, The 1 and Only Agency.

Do I need a published book first?

No. Many authors start after their book is published, but Authority Build works for any founder or expert with knowledge worth building a business around. If you also want a book, we can publish it alongside your build.

How long does it take?

About 90 days. Weeks 1 to 6 are coaching and strategy, with six weekly 75-minute sessions. Weeks 7 to 12 are the build, where your website, funnel and entry offer come together.

How do I choose my seven build items?

After your kickoff call, we create a written build plan with you and help you choose the seven items that fit your goals, from a menu that includes websites, funnels, lead magnets, email and text campaigns, automations, booking calendars, courses, payments and more.

Are PR, podcasts and speaking bookings included?

Not in Authority Build. Outreach, podcast placements and bookstore or local visibility are part of our visibility packages: the 90-day Visibility Sprint, the 6-month Authority & Sales Engine and the 12-Month Authority Partner. Add one to your build or start it after.

What happens after the 90 days?

A monthly platform membership keeps everything you built running. It begins 30 days after signing. See the monthly plans.
