About the Author
Tanya has been empowering authors to tell their stories since she joined Greenleaf Book Group in 2004. As the company's Chief Executive, Tanya fosters a culture of innovation centered on creating new opportunities to better serve authors. As the first hybrid publisher, Greenleaf Book Group has been at the forefront of innovative publishing for twenty years and continues to grow in response to author needs, morphing from a book distributor to a full-service publishing house that now includes an author branding department. Having worked closely with retailers while building Greenleaf's sales and distribution channels, Tanya knows first-hand how the power of a book can be amplified through a strong author brand--and, in turn, how a brand can be amplified by a book. She writes regularly on personal branding, leadership, and the publishing industry for Inc.com and hosts the podcast Published, which guides authors through all areas of publishing. She regularly speaks and writes on the publishing business so that potential authors will have a clear understanding of the industry and how to succeed within it. Before joining the publishing industry, Tanya worked in digital media and as a television producer for Extra! and E! Entertainment Television. She lives in Austin with her two daughters and a house full of animals.

"I have known Tanya Hall for over a decade and regard her as one of the smartest, most engaging women in the business. After reading her book I'm even more impressed that she invested the time to share her knowledge with the public. She has written the ultimate guide for every aspiring author. She's a brilliant publisher who has witnessed the value of the book as a marketing tool, and she has generously created the road map for crafting a successful publication. As a book packager and publisher, I am incredibly impressed with the detail she provides in Ideas, Influence, and Income, and I don't believe there is another book that covers this subject so well. Congratulations Tanya! I'm saving a space on my bookshelf for this one!"

With this book, she is sharing a wealth of valuable insights she has gained along the way that will particularly benefit the growing universe of thought leaders who care as much, if not more, about moving minds as moving units. It's a smart, practical, and reliable road map for authors who know where they want to go but are not sure how to get there."
