Witty is a local business entrepreneur who adopted our beloved Charleston as his home nearly 20 years ago and has since been deeply committed to growing and celebrating all that the community has to offer. As an expert on building business through personal brand authority, Witty and his team have helped over 2,000 global business leaders elevate their thought leadership through publishing and media services.

About The Authority Advantage:
“I was honored to write the foreword for Adam and Rusty’s previous book, Authority Marketing. They’ve done it again with The Authority Advantage. This book is required reading for any leader who wants to make a lasting mark in his or her field.”
—Steve Forbes, Editor-In-Chief, Forbes
The Authority Advantage challenges assumptions from leaders about personal branding and thought leadership, showing them how to build authentic visibility focused on impact. This book is key to identifying and overcoming the roadblocks to building trust in an increasingly skeptical environment. Within these pages, you’ll discover how to grow your authority-status and how it can give you a competitive advantage and help you stand out from the crowd.
a While we remain an independent bookstore, we have highly collaborative partnerships with various institutions around Charleston and can host anything from 50 people in the bookstore to close to 2,000 at The Gaillard Center. Charleston – and those that visit the city – is a community of readers and writers that are fully ready to embrace our goal of making Charleston a staple city on the literary circuit.
