Get ready to step into your spotlight as an authority. As a publisher and book marketing strategist for professionals, business owners, consultants, and speakers worldwide, I'm on a mission to empower authors to share your message with the world.

With my comprehensive background of over 20 years as a celebrity publicist, award-winning journalist in radio, print, and TV, as well as a clothing designer and entrepreneur, I am uniquely positioned to support authors to step into thought leadership and make a big impact with their book.

I earned a master's degree in journalism from the University of Southern California, where I graduated first in my class. I grew up in Canada, have lived on both US coasts, and now reside in Arizona with my husband, daughter and son, our Cavalier King Charles Marty McDog and our Siberian cat Phoebe.

My new book, Make a Big Impact with Your Book, is available now.

Laurie B. Timms, Author

After I completed writing draft three of my book (and although a marketer by profession), I had no idea what was required to improve my visibility among potential readers and to grab the attention of agents and publishers. In a period of six months, Melanie taught me everything I needed to know to elevate both my personal brand and my book. Melanie is like a human encyclopedia when it comes to book marketing, and she’s shown tremendous value to me through her services. I highly recommend working with Melanie if you are in need of comprehensive book marketing.

Andrea Mein DeWitt, Author, Coach, Speaker

Melanie expertly transformed my mindset and my digital marketing platform from tentative and sloppy to strategic and elegant. She helped me fine-tune and streamline my message, target the audience I wanted to reach and expertly taught me the “rules of play” in preparation for my book launch. An absolute pleasure to work with, Melanie demonstrated an innate skill for communicating clearly, precisely and with purpose. She is highly professional, organized, responsive, and gifted in the art of guiding her clients with grace and vision. I highly recommend Melanie is an invaluable partner if you hope to upgrade and take your business to the next level.

Sasha Stair, Author & Fintech Executive

Melanie is truly in her zone of genius and a gem! I highly recommend Melanie to anyone who has authored or is authoring a book and knows there is more to the platform than just the message. My words to Melanie: I love your demeanor and personality. It’s very uplifting and encouraging, which I in particular need and benefit greatly from. Thank you for being so authentic and for pushing me one step at a time. :)

I highly recommend Melanie to anyone who has authored a book. . .

Jim Schneider, Author "Fencebat"

Melanie is an incredibly knowledgeable and insightful guide through the overwhelming and confusing realm of book and brand promotion and marketing.

Most people probably think that writing the book is the biggest challenge, but I quickly learned that what you do with the book after it's written is where the real adventure is.

Melanie was able to help me identify the important content pillars in my work, coach me on how to leverage those pieces in my promotion and opened my mind up to a whole new world of possibilities establishing a brand and a voice. I can't recommend Melanie and VIP Book Marketing enough. 

I can't recommend Melanie enough. . .
