Writing Coaching Services
Women now own 585,000 of the 1.9 million small businesses operating in Australia.
That is phenomenal and it means there are 585,000 women who are unbelievably good at what they do!
How do we transition from being good at what we do though, to being respected and credible experts within our industries?
One of the most powerful ways you can do this is through the written word. Kylie works with women building their writing confidence so they can raise their professional profiles and start positioning themselves as credible experts. Kylie’s goal with Brisbane Woman is to develop women’s confidence with writing and get them writing more! She can assist you in a number of ways.

Writing Coach
In talking to women through her work, Kylie has found that many women love and have a goal of writing a book. Eighty two percent of people dream of writing a book, but only a few ever realise that goal.
Book and E-books - One of the best things you can do for your career is to write a book about your area of expertise. Saying you’re an ‘author’ sets you up as a specialist in your field and will open many doors that would have otherwise been closed. The publishing industry has changed dramatically with the transformation of the internet so having a book published has never been a more attainable goal.
Kylie coaches women on the importance of self-promotion and the role writing a book can play in setting yourself up as an expert or specialist. She assists women through the entire process of writing a book for publication. She is able to offer advice on approaching traditional publishing houses and self-publication. Kylie runs Masterclasses on writing E-books for female business owners in Brisbane and provides phone coaching throughout Australia and overseas.
Manuscript Assessment - Have you completed a book and want some feedback before selling on line and publishing? Kylie will provide a thorough and full manuscript assessment on the content relevance, chapter length, audience suitability, readability and format of your book.
Blog - Kylie turned her blog Brisbane Woman from a weekly article about women into a thriving, successful business. If you would like some advice on setting up a blog, writing interesting and engaging articles that will attract customers, then she can help you. Perhaps you have a blog currently but aren’t getting the results you hoped for. Kylie will coach you through the process of making your blog a success for your business!
Article Writing - Kylie works as a professional freelance writer. Writing articles is also a powerful way to raise your professional profile and Kylie works with women to show them how to write engaging articles for the web. She also coaches women wanting to take that next professional step and get their articles published in magazines, newspapers and industry journals. There is only one way to approach an editor and successfully get your work published and Kylie will show you how.
