Publishing is a spectrum — from what lives inside you to what gets seen.
I help established authors and creative leaders build sustainable revenue across that entire spectrum.
Hi, I'm Amanda Hinton. For nearly 20 years, I've been the strategic advisor behind successful publications and million-dollar businesses. You can learn more about me here — but I’m more interested in what you’re working on, and how we can bring it to life.

You have a message that matters and an audience that trusts you.
But translating that into a sustainable publishing strategy that actually generates revenue? That feels like trying to solve a puzzle with half the pieces missing.
Together, we untangle the complexity of audience intelligence, strategic timing and authentic monetization to build publishing partnerships that honor both your voice and your business goals.
You know there's more to sustainable publishing than growth hacks and viral content.
You want to build something that lasts, that feels true to who you are and that serves your audience authentically. But everywhere you look, the advice feels either too tactical or too vague.
Together, we untangle what sustainable growth actually looks like in the new media landscape through my bestselling newsletter — where strategy meets intuition, and data meets the deeper rhythms of creative work.
You have something important to say, but the pressure to constantly produce content is drowning out your authentic voice.
You're caught between staying true to yourself and meeting the demands of audience growth and revenue generation.
Together, we untangle the false choice between authenticity and profitability, creating space for your voice to strengthen while building the audience intelligence that turns genuine connection into sustainable income.
