OFFERING
Writing material and problem solving with words: making customer’s books bestsellers, getting them booked for media appearances, writing their speeches, designing their media kits, and working as their trusted brand consultant.

SUMMARY
It’s no accident we tell parables to children to help them make sense of the world. As humans, we understand life through stories. As a writer, Michael Ashley’s role is to shape hearts and minds through the power of narrative—through the magic telepathy of words. A former reporter, magazine columnist, and Disney screenwriting consultant, Michael has learned the best way to communicate and persuade is through showing, rather than telling: presenting a story that touches audiences in an emotionally compelling way.

At Michael’s company Ink Wordsmiths, they believe in the power of perception. Ink Wordsmiths shortcuts the process of knowing, liking, and trusting for their clients by telling their stories to their prospects and customers. Doing so, they transform their clients into subject matter experts and thought leaders. Most often, Ink Wordsmiths achieves their clients’ goals via ghostwriting or editing their books, screenwriting their ideas, writing their (web)copy or penning their articles/blogs.

Achieving thought leadership status is different for each client and industry. Beyond writing material for their clients, Ink Wordsmiths solve their problems with words: making their books bestsellers, getting them booked for media appearances, writing their speeches, designing their media kits, and working as their trusted brand consultant.

Too often, people read stories believing the character on the page to be the hero, forgetting Ink Wordsmiths writes the stories of their lives every single day through the choices they make. Using the power of words, Ink Wordsmiths can help customers become the hero in their own life story.
