About Stardom Books
That is why we help leaders find it and amplify it — by creating permanent records of their stories, insights and perspectives, using strategic communication and the power of publishing.
Every Stardom title is listed with our worldwide distribution network; physical bookstores and libraries order from it when they choose.
What we are
Stardom Books is an independent nonfiction publisher, with a house in the United States and a house in India. We publish business leaders, founders, professionals and experts who have something worth saying and no time to write it.
Most of our authors have never written a book before. They do not need to have. Our experts interview you, research around you, and bring every resource your book needs — so that it is presented at an international level, matching your seniority. We call it the Stardom Method.
The book is written from your words, approved by you at every stage, and published in your name. You own the copyright. We are the publisher.
The founder
The expertise was real. He had spent years building businesses in North America and Asia, and teaching leadership communication to executives and entrepreneurs. But a stranger could not verify any of it. The credentials lived in his own account of himself — and to a new market, that is the same as having none.
He closed that gap the way he now advises others to close it: by putting his thinking on the record. He wrote and published, and the books did what conversations could not. They traveled ahead of him, opened doors he had not knocked on, and gave people something to check before they ever met him.
Stardom Books grew out of that experience. Raam saw leaders around him with more insight than he had — and no book, because writing one looked like a year they did not have. So he built a house that would do the work a book needs, from the author’s own words, without handing the author’s name to a ghostwriter. Later he built The Authority Forum, the community he wishes had existed when he arrived.
“I believe everyone has a message to share with the world. What is yours?”
Today he leads a team of publishing advisors, writers, editors, designers and an international publishing team. As Chief Editor, he remains involved in every book the house publishes.
The house
A book passes through eight sets of hands before it reaches a reader. Each one is a specialist, and each one works on your book only.
Every author works with a named senior publishing advisor from the first conversation to launch — one person who knows your book, and who you can reach.
What we stand for
Every chapter is drafted from recorded interviews with you. We do not accept ghostwriting assignments, and no manuscript of ours is generated by a machine.
A post disappears; a book is registered, cataloged and printed on demand for as long as people order it. We publish for the record, not the feed.
The book has to match your seniority. Editing, design and production are held to the standard of the best houses in the category, wherever the reader is.
A book is not a project; it is a strategy. We settle what the book is for, and who it is for, before anything is written — and we will say so if a book is not the right move for you yet.
The network
Stardom Books is the publishing house. Around it are the places where leaders measure, meet and build the authority a book is meant to serve.
