Ghostwriting is about more than just writing; it’s about building a brand, establishing trust, and leading others
In 2014, I started ghostwriting (which I had never done) about education policy (which I knew nothing about).
Things could have ended poorly.
Instead, that was the start of a six-year client relationship, one that led to creating content for leaders in other fields.
Eventually, I realized—and they did, too—that I was more than just a writer. I was a brand builder. An idea giver. A strategic adviser.
Someone who has helped executives:
Launch and grow businesses
Attract customers
Build revenue streams
Secure five-figure speaking engagements
Navigate high-stakes moments
Not bad for an English major.
“Tony is an excellent sounding board for all things strategy and thought leadership. He has a rare ability to see the bigger picture and considers challenges from all angles, which clarifies thinking and leads to better decisions and outcomes. He’s also great at getting into the weeds with clients and iterating on ideas to elevate their messaging, brand, and business. Best of all, Tony is perpetually kind, trustworthy, and goes above and beyond when called upon. I am confident you won’t find anyone more committed, talented, or a greater pleasure to work with than Tony. He is a valued partner, and the way he blends big-picture thinking with thoughtful execution is truly unrivaled.”— Dr. Kathryn Preston, Keynote Speaker and Corporate Workshop Facilitator
Every communication is a partnership; every message tells a story
Ghostwriting is no miracle. We’re not delivering babies, landing on the moon, or escaping Alcatraz. We’re creating intentional messaging that resonates with specific audiences.
Every communication begins by answering two questions: What do you want or need to say? What does your audience want or need to hear?
We will answer those questions together, and no matter the message or audience, I will ensure you communicate in ways that enhance credibility, build trust, and add value.
“Tony delivers well-written and creatively crafted articles, op-eds, and speeches on time and on point. As a ghostwriter, he effectively captures the voice of his client and can learn about and write about a topic as if he were an expert in the field. I have worked with many writers, and none has come close to equaling Tony’s talent and work ethic. It’s rare to get both, and Tony has proven his unparalleled value.” — Kim Barlag, President & CEO
Ghostwriting and Advising Testimonials*
“Tony has been my trusted ghostwriter for years. Although it took us six years to meet in person, you wouldn’t know that from the content he has produced. He quickly picked up my voice and has provided a wealth of written and spoken content on my behalf, including editorials, blogs, and keynote addresses. He has done this all remotely, always with my professional brand and personal ethos in mind. Tony is everything you want in a ghostwriter: talented, reliable, and no ego. I strongly recommend him to anyone in need of excellent written and verbal communication or increased visibility in their field. He is a pleasure to work with, and he will absolutely make your life easier.”
— Renée A. Middleton, university dean
“Tony has been a game-changer and a real joy to work with. We went from blogging on my personal website to getting a paid writing gig. In the beginning, Tony and I would have weekly phone calls, and I would give him my thoughts on things. After a few months, those calls became unnecessary. Tony mastered my voice very quickly and had a great pulse on my perspective and opinions. There were many times when he would submit blogs for approval, and I didn’t have a single change to make. Ultimately, Tony helped build my audience on social media and got my content in front of a lot of eye balls. I have no doubt that his content and ideas opened the door to a lot of opportunities and led to more guest-speaking engagements and appearances. Tony is honest, a great brand strategist, and has your best interest at heart. If you’re looking to take your business to the next level, hire him. He’s worth the investment.”
— Dale Murphy, two-time NL MVP
“Tony is a real pro. He helped me get my business off the ground and made my website and social media presence come alive. He took time to truly understand me and my goals and provided strategic counsel every step of the way, from marketing strategy to client acquisition. Tony was the guide I needed. Everything he told me to do worked.”
— Mike Legarza, The Attitude Coach
