Business Book Ghostwriting
A business book ghostwriter who knows how founders, CEOs, and subject-matter experts actually talk, think, and sell. We turn your expertise into a book that reads like you on your best day.
Built for business authors. Whether your book is a framework, a playbook, or the story of how you built what you built, we help you shape it into something your readers, your peers, and your clients will take seriously.

Founders & CEOs
You want a book that opens doors, wins speaking engagements, and warms up your sales pipeline, without spending a year at the keyboard.
Subject-matter experts
You have a proven framework, a decade of hard-won lessons, and no time to shape them into a manuscript that your peers will take seriously.
Consultants & advisors
Your book is a credential, a lead magnet, and the best-qualified salesperson you will ever hire. It has to say the right things, to the right audience, on the first read.
Coaches & speakers
You are known on stage. The book is how you get known in print, in boardrooms, and in the hands of people you will never meet.
The business book ghostwriting process
-
1. Positioning and outline
We start with your audience, your business goals, and the change you want the book to create. From there we build a structured outline — normally seven to ten chapters — that a reader can navigate and a journalist can quote.
-
2. Voice capture interviews
Your ghostwriter runs a series of recorded interviews. We get your stories, your frameworks, and the phrases you actually use with clients. Most of our authors spend six to twelve hours on camera across the whole project.
-
3. Draft and review
We deliver chapters in batches. You mark up what sounds right, what doesn't, and we revise. You never sit in front of a blank page.
-
4. Editorial polish
Developmental edit, line edit, copy edit, proofread. By the end, the manuscript is ready for typesetting and print.
-
5. Hand-off to publishing and launch
Ghostwriting is one stage of the bigger business book publishing workflow. If you want us to handle design, print, distribution, and launch, we have you covered end to end.
Why choose a business book ghostwriter
Most ghostwriters are generalists who can write a thriller this week and a memoir the next. That is a problem when the book is meant to sell a B2B offer, stand up in a boardroom, and be referenced by someone's analyst in ten years.
Our ghostwriters specialise in books by and for business people. They understand frameworks, case studies, founder stories, buyer psychology, and the difference between a trade paperback and a sales tool. Whether your book is a pure methodology or a memoir-led story of how you built your company, the result is a book you are proud to put in front of clients, and one that keeps working for your business long after launch day.
Talk to us about your bookBusiness book ghostwriting FAQ
How much does a business book ghostwriter cost?
Professional business book ghostwriting typically runs from the high five figures into the low six figures, depending on scope, research, and how much of the publishing workflow is bundled in. See our pricing page for current packages.
How long does it take to ghostwrite a business book?
Most of our business book projects run nine to twelve months from first interview to print-ready manuscript. Faster is possible if you have a fixed launch window.
Whose name goes on the cover?
Yours. Ghostwriting means your ghostwriter is invisible on the cover, the spine, and the title page. You own the manuscript and the copyright.
Do I need to have a full outline before we start?
No. Building the outline is part of what you are paying for. We will help you figure out what your book is actually about, who it is for, and the shape it should take.
Can you handle publishing after the manuscript is done?
Yes. Quartz Press is a full-service business book publisher. Ghostwriting, editing, design, distribution, and launch marketing are all under one roof. See all services.
