Davis Creative Publishing

In a world where trust is harder to earn than ever, a book can help you build it faster than almost anything else.

Why?
Because a book allows people to get to know you before they ever meet you.
➢ They learn how you think.
➢ They discover what you value.
➢ They gain confidence in your expertise.
➢ And perhaps most importantly, they connect with your story.

A website can tell people what you do.
A social media post can showcase your personality.

But a book gives people the opportunity to spend hours with your ideas.
By the time they finish reading, many readers feel like they already know you.
That's powerful.

I've had authors tell me they walked into a meeting and heard these words:
"I've been reading your book."
Everything changes after that.
The trust-building process has already begun.
Your book has already demonstrated your expertise, shared your perspective, and created a connection before the first conversation ever takes place.

That's why I don't view a book as simply a marketing tool.
I view it as a trust-building asset.
One that continues working long after you've written "The End."

If you're a coach, consultant, speaker, entrepreneur, or business owner, don't underestimate the power of a book.

People do business with those they know, like, and trust.
A book helps them do all three.
Bring out your BRAVE.

Your voice may be exactly what someone needs to hear.

Sometimes a phrase lands in my mind and instantly becomes a picture. I literally write the phrase in my phone Notes and later create a graphic image of what appeared in my head.
I call this little creative series my 𝐔𝐏𝐒𝐈 𝐃𝐚𝐢𝐬𝐲 𝐂𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧: 𝐔𝐧𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐚𝐥 𝐏𝐨𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐒𝐩𝐢𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐥 𝐈𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐬, from my book of the same name.

This one speaks to the powerful connection between passion and purpose:
𝐃𝐨 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞. 𝐋𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐝𝐨.

When those two things come together, something remarkable happens.
Work becomes more than a task.
Service becomes more than an obligation.
And the ordinary moments of life begin to feel more meaningful.

That doesn't mean every day is easy. Challenges still show up. Obstacles still appear. But when our actions are connected to something we genuinely care about, we find the energy to keep going.

I've seen this with authors time and time again.

Many begin with a simple desire to share a story, teach a lesson, preserve a legacy, or make a difference. What starts as an idea often opens doors they never imagined possible.
A new connection.
A new opportunity.
A new chapter.

Because when passion and purpose work together, a world of possibility begins to open.
And sometimes, the next amazing opportunity is waiting just beyond the step you're considering taking today.

It’s time to Bring Out Your BRAVE.

Sometimes a phrase lands in my mind and instantly becomes a picture. I literally write the phrase in my phone Notes and later create a graphic image of what appeared in my head.

I call this little creative series my UPSI Daisy Collection: Universal Positive Spiritual Insights, from my book of the same name.

This one reminds me that confidence isn't always about certainty.
Sometimes it's about trust.
Do what you must.
Trust what you do.

There are seasons in life when the path ahead feels clear. And there are seasons when we're simply taking the next step without knowing exactly where it will lead.

That's where trust becomes so important.
Trust your values.
Trust your experience.
Trust the lessons you've learned along the way.

Not because you'll always get everything right, but because growth rarely comes from standing still.

I've seen this with authors, entrepreneurs, and dreamers alike.
The people who make the greatest progress aren't the ones who have every answer before they begin. They're the ones who move forward despite uncertainty, trusting that each step will reveal the next.

Sometimes courage looks less like confidence and more like commitment.
A commitment to keep showing up.
To keep learning.
To keep moving forward.

Do what you must.
Then trust yourself enough to believe you're capable of more than you know.

It’s time to Bring Out Your BRAVE.

𝑨𝒓𝒆 𝒚𝒐𝒖 𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒅𝒚 𝒕𝒐 𝒈𝒆𝒕 𝒏𝒐𝒕𝒊𝒄𝒆𝒅?

Maybe this is your sign.

That book idea in your notes app.
The one sitting in your Google Drive folder.
The one you keep saying you'll get to "someday."

Because for speakers, coaches, and trainers, books are rarely about book sales.
They're about what the book CREATES.

One book can become:
✔ Speaking topics
✔ Workshop content
✔ Podcast episodes
✔ Months of social content
✔ Lead generators
✔ Client conversations
✔ Credibility before you walk into the room

The real ROI isn't the royalties.
It's the opportunities.
The stage invitation.
The client who says:
"I've been reading your book and knew I wanted to work with you."
The referral.
The partnership.
The breakthrough.
Your message may already be inside you.

Maybe the only thing standing between where you are and where you want to go...
is "someday."

Bring out your BRAVE.

📌 More Powerful Than a Business Card.
📌 More Memorable Than a Free Pen.
(And a faster read than a website.)

Most marketing giveaways get tossed.
OR passed on to kids as something to play with.
✨ Business cards get buried.
✨Pens run out of ink.
✨ Follow-ups get forgotten.
📕 But people keep books.
And when they keep your book…
they remember you.

What Is a B4 Book?
A B4 Book is a shorter, strategic, lead-generating book designed to:
• Build trust BEFORE the first call.
• Position you as the expert BEFORE they buy elsewhere.
• Turn conversations into clients BEFORE they forget you.

This isn’t about writing a long book.
It’s about creating the right book.
The one that works for your business before they buy.
Work Smarter. Not Harder.

She’d love to learn more about you and your book idea.
Because your story, your wisdom, and your voice might be exactly what someone else needs to hear right now.

How to Row, Row, Row Your Boat — With a LOTTA Help

Maybe it’s your journal.
Maybe it’s the decade of blog posts you’ve written.
Maybe it’s the collection of notes, voice memos, ideas, synchronicities, and life lessons you’ve collected over the years.

But deep down?
You already know.
The time is NOW.

We work with people who want to do it right: people who don’t want to look self-published.

You have a message that offers hope, wisdom, solutions, encouragement, or transformation.

It’s time to Bring Out Your BRAVE.

But here’s the truth:

Publishing a professional book involves far more than writing words on a page.

There’s strategy.
➢ Editing
➢ Design
➢ Formatting
➢ Distribution
➢ Vendor setup
➢ Metadata
➢ Uploads
➢ Marketing alignment

In a world where machines serve your coffee and AI serves your content, you know you’d rather have professionals publish your book for you.

That’s why some authors decide:
“I don’t want to row this boat alone.”

Because your book is more than a project.
➢ It’s your message
➢ Your credibility
➢ Your visibility
➢ Your legacy

And done right, it can continue working for your business long after it’s published.

There’s a voice inside many of us that whispers doubt.
You know the one.

It says things like:
• Who do you think you are?
• Someone else has already said this better.
• What if people judge you?

In the personal development world, that voice is often called the 𝐈𝐭𝐭𝐲 𝐁𝐢𝐭𝐭𝐲 “𝐒𝐡𝐢𝐟𝐭𝐲” 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐢𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐞. And when it gets loud, it can stop powerful stories and important ideas from ever being shared.

But here’s what I’ve learned after more than 20 years helping authors publish their books:
The world doesn’t need quieter voices.
The world needs braver ones.

That’s why we encourage our authors to 𝐁𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐎𝐮𝐭 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐁.𝐑.𝐀.𝐕.𝐄.

BRAVE isn’t just a motivational word.
It’s a mindset.
It’s a decision.

When you 𝐁𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐎𝐮𝐭 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐁.𝐑.𝐀.𝐕.𝐄., you give yourself permission to:
𝐁 — 𝐁𝐞 𝐁𝐨𝐥𝐝 & 𝐁𝐨𝐝𝐚𝐜𝐢𝐨𝐮𝐬 𝐎𝐮𝐭 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐁.𝐑.𝐀.𝐕.𝐄.,
Stop playing small. Your story, ideas, and experiences are worthy of being seen and heard.
𝐑 — 𝐑𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐠𝐧𝐢𝐳𝐞 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐕𝐨𝐢𝐜𝐞 𝐌𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬
Your perspective is unique. Someone out there needs to hear exactly what only you can say.
𝐀 — 𝐀𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐲 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐀𝐮𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐜 𝐓𝐫𝐮𝐭𝐡
The most powerful messages come from honesty. Your real story is your greatest asset.
𝐕 — 𝐕𝐚𝐥𝐮𝐞 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐟 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐖𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐡
Your knowledge, experiences, and lessons carry value. When you honor that, others will too.
𝐄 — 𝐄𝐥𝐞𝐯𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐌𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐚𝐠𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐜𝐡
A message shared intentionally can inspire, guide, and transform others.

The moment someone decides:
“My message is bigger than my fear.”
That’s when everything changes.
The world needs B.R.A.V.E. voices right now.

When courageous people share their experiences and insights, something powerful happens:
Ideas spread.
Hope grows.
Communities strengthen.
SOLUTIONS SURFACE.

Your story, your wisdom, and your voice might be exactly what someone else needs to hear right now.

I call this little creative series my 𝐔𝐏𝐒𝐈 𝐃𝐚𝐢𝐬𝐲 𝐂𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 — 𝐔𝐧𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐚𝐥 𝐏𝐨𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐒𝐩𝐢𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐥 𝐈𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐚𝐬 𝐔𝐧𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐏𝐡𝐫𝐚𝐬𝐞 + 𝐒𝐮𝐝𝐝𝐞𝐧 𝐈𝐧𝐬𝐩𝐢𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧.

This one feels like a gentle reminder for all of us who try to hold everything together all the time.
𝐆𝐨 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐟𝐥𝐨𝐰… 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐥𝐞𝐭 𝐢𝐭 𝐠𝐨.

Not every detour is a disaster.
Not every delay means failure.
And not everything needs to be forced.

Sometimes growth happens when we loosen our grip just enough to trust the process.
I see this often with writers and entrepreneurs.

The path rarely unfolds exactly as planned. Chapters change. Ideas evolve. Unexpected opportunities appear. And sometimes the very thing we resisted becomes the next right step.
There’s wisdom in learning when to push forward… and when to release what no longer serves us.

Because peace often begins the moment we stop fighting every current and start allowing life to move through us instead of against us.

Sometimes the next breakthrough begins with a deep breath, a little trust…
…and letting it go.
Are you ready to write that book you’ve been thinking about?
