We build the buzz for your company by happily pollinating the marketplace with your product/service offering, in the form of tasty samples, branded premiums/collateral, and compelling information, all with uncommonly engaging, hands-on interactions. Our goal is to create experiences in the marketplace that are exceptionally positive and memorable to the consumer, reinforcing market share longevity, and residual sales for our clients.

      • Book Writing Services, Co-Authoring, Ghost Writing & More

        You are the expert, and you know your s***, so why not share it with the world? One of the strongest brand positioning gambits is to author a book about your industry or related topic. Even though 81% of individuals surveyed desire to write a book, less than 1% ever see the goal through to completion. The main reason is setting aside the time required to get it done, but if you do write one—and publish it—it can make a massive difference to your bottom line. Imagine how much easier it would be to land a client or an account if you include a book you authored in your proposal that establishes you as your industry's authority.

        Sounds great, right? But suppose you can't set aside the time or aren't sure how to get started. Busy Bee can help you get it done with the same proprietary system used by our very own Paul Edgewater, CMO, who has seven books to his credit, including five best-selling books.
