Praise for Build Book Buzz Publicity Forms & Templates

"The most successful authors are those who take responsibility for promoting their own titles. This workbook is a valuable resource for those who want to make certain their books get the exposure they deserve."

Andrea M. Rotondo, senior editor
Barnes & Noble Publishing

"I highly recommend the Build Book Buzz Publicity Forms & Templates workbook. Even though I've been writing press releases for 15 years, I picked up a new tip from the workbook about how to write them more effectively. And after posting my Author Q&A on my Web site, it was reprinted in several national magazines. That was great (free) publicity for my new book."

Candy Harrington, author

for Wheelers & Slow Walkers

"Using Build Book Buzz Publicity Forms & Templates, I was able to quickly create my first tip sheet, which is generating local and national interest in my new book. Instead of hiring a publicist to do this for me, which would have cost at least $500, I learned exactly how to put it together myself for maximum impact. And that's just one of the tools! I'll easily save myself thousands of dollars because I'll be able to prepare all the publicity documents I need for my latest book using the contents in this workbook as my guide."

[](javascript:;)Dear Author:

You know the importance of selling books. It goes beyond cashing royalty checks — the advance on your next book often depends on how many copies your last book sold. And if you're self-published, sales mean money in the bank — immediately.

But you can't sell books unless people know about them, and that's the problem. And it's your problem, not the publisher's. A publisher makes your book available for purchase, but it's up to you to make certain people know it's there to buy.

If book promotion isn't in your skill set, you have to pay thousands of dollars to a publicist who might or might not be good, right?

Wrong.

You don't have to spend thousands
of your hard-earned dollars on a publicist
to generate the buzz that leads to book sales.
You can do it yourself and you can it do it very well.

It doesn't matter what you do or don't know about book promotion right this very minute. I've got the combination to the lock on secrets of top publicists and I'm going to give that combination to you.

Help is here. Serious help. I'm talking about the kind of help that can make a huge difference in your results — and your bank account.

I've assembled an incredible workbook that is brimming with easy-to-use book publicity forms and templates — and detailed instructions on how to use them so you'll get fantastic results. If you can string together coherent sentences and want your book to succeed, you'll be able to use this workbook to create all the tools you need to generate incredible book buzz.

You'll learn how to create and use each media relations tool. Here's just a sampling of what you can do with these tools:
Generate book reviews Snag valuable interviews with local, regional and national journalists representing all types of media outlets Secure exposure on the blogs of influential thought-leaders Create an attention-getting press kit containing the most sought after information about your book Generate radio talk show interviews and prepare the host for a thought-provoking, controversial or fascinating conversation with you, the expert Convince a reporter that your credentials make you the ideal expert source for an article Provide media outlets with tips and advice they will use because their audiences need the information only you can provide Syndicate informational articles online Achieve your communications goals with every single media interview Publicize any and all news associated with your book Position yourself as a credentialed expert resource

The material in Build Book Buzz Publicity Forms & Templates will save you oodles of money.

It's hard to put a price tag on information, but industry experience tells me that the tools in this workbook will save you thousands of dollars in publicist fees. Thousands. And who knows what they might generate in book sales? It's exciting to think about!

Who knows your book better than you?
Who knows your book's media angles better than you?
Who wants this book to succeed more than you?

Nobody. This is your job. And I'm giving you what you need to do it well and at a mere fraction of the cost of hiring a specialist.

I've created the forms from my way too many years of experience as an award-winning publicist. But because I'm such a stickler for giving you the best value for your money, I spoke with others in the business, too — top book publicists and industry insiders who know what works and what doesn't — to make sure what I've got in this priceless workbook is as good as it can be. And it is.

I'm so certain that you'll find the tools in Build Book Buzz Publicity Forms & Templates to be useful and valuable that I'm giving you a guarantee right here, in writing:

If Build Book Buzz Publicity Forms & Templates
doesn't save you at least what you paid for it
over the course of one year, I'll refund your already
low purchase price immediately, no questions asked.
That's a promise.

These tools are precisely what authors need, whether you've got a traditional publisher, are self-published, or used print-on-demand services. Need more evidence? Here's a list of forms and samples in this 50+ page workbook:

And, to make it as easy as possible for you to use,
Build Book Buzz Publicity Forms & Templates
comes to you in a downloadable Word file.

I've created this as a Word file, instead of a PDF file (the format used for many e-books), because Word lets you create new documents by copying the templates and then typing right into the spaces I've left for you. You can't do that with PDF files.

I know what authors need when it comes to tools.

I'm a recovering publicist — I don't work for hire anymore but I can't give it up so I teach others how to do it themselves. The online course I teach, "[Book Publicity 101: How to Build Book Buzz](../../workshops/book-publicity.htm)", has helped me uncover what most authors do and don't know about book promotion.

I've created this workbook to help fill in the knowledge gaps, giving you everything you need to reach out to the traditional and online media, whether you're pitching yourself as a TV talk show guest, offering to write a column for a local business journal, or writing an article for someone else's e-zine.

Start saving money now by creating your own book publicity materials with the incredibly valuable information offered here.

You're in the best position to identify and communicate what's new or groundbreaking in your nonfiction book or novel and to uncover story ideas you can pitch to the media. And you'll save a ton of money using the tools here.

And this workbook is so affordable, especially considering the high fees a publicist would charge to create the essential media relations tools you'll learn about in Build Book Buzz Publicity Forms & Templates.

Here's how inexpensive this workbook really is.

The price is only $97.
