Tell My Brand Story
A book on your brand — the founding, the method, the people, the customers it changed — researched and written by our experts from interviews with you and your team, and published worldwide in your name.
What a brand story book does
A brochure is skimmed and discarded. A book is read, kept, and passed on. It says what a company stands for in the one form people take seriously.
A prospect who has read your book arrives already understanding how you think, why you work the way you do, and what happened to the people who chose you. It is the best sales document you will never call one.
Used by: professional firms, consultancies, B2B companies with long sales cycles.
The founder’s intent, in the founder’s words, in the hands of every new hire. A book holds a culture steadier than a values poster, and it survives the founder stepping back.
Used by: fast-growing firms, family businesses, companies planning a succession.
Where it came from, what it learned, what it built. When someone is deciding whether to back you, buy from you or buy you, a book is the account of the company that they cannot get from a deck.
Used by: founders raising capital, firms preparing for a sale, companies marking a milestone.
Six kinds of brand story
The planning stage settles this, using Book as a Strategy. These are the six we publish most often.
How the company came to be — the problem, the bet, the early years, what it became. Told by the founder who lived it, or in the brand’s own name with the people who built it.
Best for a company with a founder still at the center of it, or a brand whose story is bigger than any one person
What you do differently, written down properly — the approach, the principles, the way you work — so a prospect understands it before the first meeting.
Best for professional firms, consultancies, specialists
A book of the customers whose situation you changed — told in their words, with their permission — that says more than any case study.
Best for companies whose results speak louder than their claims
Why we do it this way. The values, the decisions behind them, and the people who hold to them — for the team you have and the team you are hiring.
Best for fast-growing firms, family businesses, firms with a succession ahead
The state of your field, written by the company that understands it best. Positions the firm as the reference point rather than one of the options.
Best for market leaders and category creators
A milestone — twenty-five years, a hundred — recorded properly, with the archive, the people and the turns in the road that got the firm here.
Best for established companies and institutions
Whose name is on it
A brand story is published the way every Stardom book is: in a real author’s name, from that author’s words, with copyright registered to them or to the company. A book with no author on the cover is a catalog, and nobody reads a catalog.
The Stardom Method
Our experts interview you, research around you, and bring every resource your book needs — so that it is presented at an international level, matching your seniority. For a brand story, the research goes wider: the team, the archive, the customers.
Which book, for whom, with whose name on it — settled first.
Founder, team, customers, archive. Drafted chapter by chapter.
Editing, formatting, proofreading, a cover you approve.
Registered, every format, listed worldwide.
Launch, media kit, and the book in the hands it was written for.
Thirty hours of your time. The rest is ours.

For founders still building
Why this problem, why now, why you. A founder who has written that down properly — as a book, not a deck — is easier to back, easier to join and easier to buy from. It is the story of the company before the company has proved it, told by the person who is betting on it.
We work with founders at this stage on the same terms as everyone else: from your words, in your name, to the same standard.
Questions companies ask
No, and a book that reads like one does not get read. A brand story earns trust by being honest — the setbacks, the decisions that were wrong at the time, the customers who almost left. Our editors will push for that honesty, because it is what makes the book work.
Usually the founder or chief executive, by name. Sometimes a leadership team, each contributing chapters. The company is the subject; the people who built it are the authors. Copyright is registered to the author or, if you prefer, to the company.
Yes. Many of our titles are multi-author books, and a brand story often benefits from more than one voice — founder, long-serving staff, the customer who was there at the start. We interview each contributor and edit the whole into one book.
Only with their agreement, and only if it serves the book. Customer stories can be told with names, with identifying details changed, or as composites, and we will advise on which is right for each one.
Less than you expect. The interviews — with the founder, the leadership and whoever else the book needs — are the main call on your time, around thirty hours over the project. Research, archive work, writing, editing and production are ours.
Twelve to fourteen weeks is typical. A book that draws on a long archive or many contributors may take a little longer, and we will say so at the planning stage.
Yes. Every edition is printed on demand close to where it is ordered, so copies for an event, a client list or every new hire are straightforward, in any quantity.
