Author of Unicorns Over Rainbows
“I had a powerful message about organisational change that I needed to share. The ideas had transformed my business and I knew they could help others, but I needed help bringing them to life on the page.
I was clear on how I wanted to tell the story – through a fable that would let readers see themselves in the characters and experience firsthand how small changes could revolutionize their organisations.
When I connected with Christina and Dave at Intelligent Ink, I found partners who were willing to embrace this somewhat unconventional approach. Even though they hadn’t worked on a business fable before, they jumped right in with enthusiasm and brought this amazing balance of encouragement and practical guidance to the process. They weren’t just editors – they became thought partners who helped me refine and strengthen the story while keeping my voice authentic.
What really impressed me was their flexibility and openness to try something different. Rather than pushing me toward a more traditional business book format, they worked with me to make the fable approach as effective as possible. The whole process became this engaging journey of discovery rather than the overwhelming task I’d built it up to be in my head.
Having ‘Unicorns over Rainbows’ out there now, connecting with readers and helping other organisations think differently about change – it’s pretty amazing. I’m getting messages from people who are actually applying these ideas in their businesses, which is exactly what I hoped for.
I honestly can’t recommend Christina, Dave, and the Intelligent Ink team highly enough. If you’re sitting on ideas that you know could help others but aren’t sure how to get them out there – these are your people. They bring this perfect mix of expertise and genuine enthusiasm that makes the whole journey not just manageable, but actually enjoyable. Even when you’re pushing the boundaries of traditional business writing, they’re right there with you, helping make your vision reality. They’re the real deal.”
