About Lisa Towles

Gifted communicators motivate. They harness words and media to activate emotions, challenge thinking, and inspire new possibilities. There has never been a richer opportunity or greater need to shape the narratives that explain the complexities of our world. Why? Because stories hold the world together.As a seasoned communications leader and author, I\'m a translator—synthesizing human experience and business strategy into meaningful stories that deepen awareness and showcase value. I\'m an experienced business executive whose work consistently draws on a multidisciplinary approach across communication, marketing, product management, and customer experience. I specialize in aligning brand strategy to external stakeholders to drive market-differentiating, revenue-based results.And now I\'m leveraging this depth of experience as a Consultant. Story Impact Consulting: Book Coaching for Authors applies business strategy, digital marketing, and strategic communications to writing and publishing. I ask authors bold questions, envision the strategic role of their book in their career, and ensure their ideas are aligned to their intended audience for maximum impact.Communication is my gift, marketing is my talent, and strategy is my superpower.What impact will YOUR story have? Let\'s explore that together. l••••••••@gmail.comLinktr.ee/authortowles
