Today, I want to share five reasons you should work with me, Andrew Griffiths, as your book writing coach. Now, if you’re familiar with me and my work, you’ll know I’m a book writing coach. But in a world where so many people are calling themselves book writing coaches, I can imagine how tricky it must be to decide who to trust with something as important as your book.
So, how do you differentiate? IfMe I were in your shoes, asking, “Who should I choose to help me write my book?” it would feel like an overwhelming decision. That’s why I want to share with you five reasons why I believe I’m the right coach for you, and perhaps also why I might not be. This isn’t about hard-selling, it’s about giving you clarity to make the best decision for your book and your goals.
1. I’m a Proven Author with Real Experience
I’ve written 14 bestselling books, sold in 65 countries, over the past 25 years. My journey has spanned working with traditional publishers like Allen & Unwin and Simon & Schuster, as well as self-publishing. I’ve been in the trenches, navigating every aspect of writing, publishing, and marketing books. And here’s the thing: I’m not resting on old laurels. I’ve got three books in progress right now, two destined for traditional publishing, and one for self-publishing. This means I bring current, hands-on experience to the table, not outdated advice from decades ago.
2. I’ve Coached Over 1,000 First-Time Authors
When it comes to coaching, I’ve helped over 1,000 people write and publish their nonfiction books across industries and continents. From the UK to the US, New Zealand to Singapore, and even Mainland China, I’ve worked with authors from all walks of life. Many of my clients have gone on to write their second, third, fourth, or even fifth books. This breadth of experience means I understand what works, and what doesn’t, when it comes to helping you craft a book you’ll be proud of.
3. My Holistic, Strategic Approach
For me, a book isn’t just a standalone project, it’s a strategic asset. Your book should fit seamlessly into your business ecosystem, enhancing your brand, building your profile, and growing your business. Before we start writing, we’ll dig into the purpose behind your book. What do you want it to achieve? Who is it for? How will it help you stand out? I’m deeply committed to ensuring your book isn’t just written, it’s strategically designed to support your goals.
4. Proven Tools, Frameworks, and Resources
Over my career, I’ve developed a treasure trove of proven tools, resources, frameworks, and industry contacts. These aren’t generic templates or recycled advice, they’re strategies built on years of experience as both an author and a coach. When you work with me, you’ll have access to all these resources, giving you a clear roadmap for success.
5. Quality Over Quantity
Here’s the deal: I’m not interested in churning out books for the sake of it. I don’t work with people who just want to cobble together a collection of blog posts, or rely entirely on AI to claim they’ve “written a book.” I’m here to help people write world-class books of substance, books that sit proudly on any bookshelf, anywhere in the world. If you’re looking for quick and easy, I’m not your coach. If you’re looking for quality and impact, I’m here to help you craft something truly extraordinary.
Why These Reasons Matter
To summarise, here’s why I believe I’m the right coach for you:
1. Real-world experience as a bestselling author.
2. A proven track record of coaching over 1,000 first-time authors.
3. A strategic, holistic approach that ensures your book serves your goals.
4. Access to unique tools, resources, and contacts to make your journey easier.
5. A commitment to quality, ensuring your book stands out and achieves its purpose.
Let’s Work Together
