We've taken 4 of our most popular marketing services and packaged them together.  Now with one easy order you can get your book promotion off to an explosive start!

 1. Custom Press Release

The custom, professionally-written press release combines information solicited from the author with the professional expertise of our PR writer for a unique, custom release that is focused on the benefits of your book. 

Through distribution, your custom press release is:

• electronically distributed to a database of approximately 100,000 media contacts, newsrooms, industry analysts, and freelance writers who receive daily email listings of press releases which match their filter criteria. In the publishing category these include newspapers (Wall St. Journal, New York Times, USA Today, etc.), magazines (Foreword, Publisher’s Weekly, etc.), and applicable websites and ezines.
• posted to syndicated news feeds on other web sites through our XML/RSS news feed. Adding this news feed increases exposure to your press release.

AUTHOR CASE STUDY #3:

"My budget was low, but I listened to Outskirts Press advice in terms of what you do once its published. And lets face it, the point of publishing it is to get it out there. So I invested in the marketing option.

My Book Marketing Specialist phoned me in no time, and considering she is in the US and I am in Australia, I was very impressed. She was supportive and animated and gave me motivation and reassurance that there was someone out there who cared about making my book visible to the world.

She wrote a great submission letter and sent it to some radio stations and it worked! I am doing my first radio interview in October. She also sent me lists of other radio stations I can tackle and any other info that would be helpful.

In addition to this she set up a blog, as I wouldn’t have had a clue. She created a great article and circulated it, keeping my name and the book in the media. She really has guided me on my journey as a new author.

Thank you to Outskirts Press for giving me this valuable option. Without it, it’s a no brainer; you really are on your own!"
