Our Story
BrightRay Publishing was founded with the mission of helping busy professionals write and publish books by converting their stories into career-enhancing tools that can distinguish themselves, their companies, and even their brands.
Our first book, written by BrightRay founder and CEO Scott Turman, proved that becoming a published author can take a career to new heights and led to the company’s evolution. As Scott struggled to formulate his thoughts early on in the writing process, he realized he needed guidance and contacted Zoe Rose, an experienced self-published author who ultimately became our co-founder and chief creative officer.
Once the original version of his industry memoir, A Nerd’s Guide to Negotiating Salary and Benefits, was published, it quickly reached Amazon’s top 10 list in its category. Its success earned Scott a Google knowledge panel, significantly improving the SERP for his brand. More publicity swiftly followed, including podcast appearances, blog post features, interviews, requests for quotations, and even a spot on Turkish national television.
Now in its second edition, the impact the book had on Scott’s brand led him to realize: if being a published author could dynamically change the trajectory of his career, it could do the same for countless other professionals.
Combining Scott’s business expertise with Zoe’s writing skills and publishing industry knowledge, they formalized their process, wrote a business plan, hired staff, and founded BrightRay Publishing.
Today, BrightRay serves executives and entrepreneurs from an array of industries, guiding them through each step of the writing, editing, publishing, and distributing process, and even publicizing their stories to global audiences. Our client authors have been featured in a wide range of media outlets, podcasts, and publications.
Our published books feature informative and edifying stories from fields such as digital marketing, insurance, cybersecurity, theme park executive leadership, supply line management, construction, entrepreneurship, business startups, decision-making, and much more.
Writing business books, whatever the field or subject matter, is what we do. Our team of professionals turns visions into reality, one book at a time.
