Anything New That Has Happened in Your Business Within the Last Three Months?

Over the past three months, our work has entered a powerful new chapter rooted in clarity, ownership, and intentional positioning. We have successfully branded and positioned author-entrepreneurs, speakers, and coaches from across the country by helping them reclaim and leverage what they already had, their stories. Rather than encouraging people to manufacture new narratives, we focused on excavating what was already present but underutilized.

Through our publishing and brand ecosystem, we took literary works that had been sitting in journals, half-finished manuscripts, and long-forgotten drafts and transformed them into literary equity. These stories were no longer treated as static content. Instead, they became living assets, appearing on screens, stages, podcasts, and panels, allowing our clients to expand visibility, authority, and revenue streams at the same time.

What made this season different was the level of integration. We didn’t simply publish books and move on. We built brands around those books. Messaging, voice, and purpose were aligned so that each author could move seamlessly between interviews, live events, podcasts, and visual media without fragmenting their identity. The result has been a growing community of leaders who no longer see themselves as “just authors,” but as communicators with intellectual property that continues to work for them long after publication.

This last quarter has been about ownership, owning your message, your narrative, and your impact. Our focus has been helping people move from exposure to equity, and from visibility to sustainability, with intention and clarity guiding every decision.

Over the past three months, Dr. Oliver T. Reid has been co-leading The Intentional Collab, a collaborative ecosystem designed to help entrepreneurs, speakers, and creatives turn their lived experiences into owned intellectual property and sustainable income. Through workshops, coaching, and implementation-based experiences, the initiative centers on literary equity—teaching participants how to document their stories, publish with purpose, and leverage tools such as course creation, content systems, and emerging AI technologies to build long-term value. The Intentional Collab positions storytelling not just as expression, but as strategy—bridging purpose, ownership, and economic empowerment for founders and leaders building with intention.

Do You Have Anything Coming Up Within the Next Couple of Months?

Launching in Q1 and expanding through Q2 of 2026, Podcast to Pages / Pages to Podcast represents the next evolution of our work. This initiative was built specifically for leaders who refuse to let their ideas live in only one lane. Too often, powerful conversations disappear once a podcast episode ends, and impactful books remain confined to the page. This framework bridges that gap.

Podcast to Pages / Pages to Podcast is designed to help podcasters turn conversations into structured manuscripts, while helping authors transform written work into compelling audio experiences. This is not about recycling content for the sake of volume. It’s about repositioning ideas with purpose and strategy so that every message works harder and travels farther.

Through this framework, spoken insights become books, written words become dynamic audio narratives, and both feed into a cohesive brand pathway. Clients don’t walk away with just exposure, they leave with tangible assets: books, podcasts, scripts, and content ecosystems that speak the same language across platforms.

At its core, this (live event, audiobooks,and anthologies) initiative is about multiplication without dilution. It ensures that no idea is wasted, no voice goes unheard, and no message is trapped in a single medium. Podcast to Pages / Pages to Podcast is for leaders ready to shift from content creation to legacy building, intentionally, strategically, and sustainably.

As an international bestselling author, publisher, and coach, Dr. Oliver T. Reid is redefining how entrepreneurs, speakers, and coaches monetize their message through what he calls literary equity. His new two-day, one-on-one VIP Days are not coaching intensives—they’re execution rooms. Working shoulder-to-shoulder at a high level, Reid helps clients extract their lived experience, clarify their intellectual property, and convert it into books, podcasts, platforms, and revenue-ready assets that travel across stages and screens. The outcome isn’t inspiration—it’s infrastructure. In an era where attention is fleeting, Reid’s VIP Days are designed to help leaders own their narrative, build legacy-driven authority, and leave with tangible, market-ready work that continues to pay dividends long after the room is cleared.
