What Are Public Relations Essentials for Authors?

Public Relations Essentials: Must-Have Services to Promote Your Author Brand

Get ready to step up to the mic and share your story with the world. Public Relations Essentials from Black Château Enterprises (BCE) helps you promote your book and amplify the messages you want to spread.

We begin by strategizing your public relations plan, refining your talking points, and preparing your media materials.

Feeling nervous about that first interview? Don’t worry. We provide media coaching and mock interviews tailored to your comfort level. Your first interview will be a “dress rehearsal” on the Books That Make You (BTMY) Show, recorded in advance to help you gain confidence.

From there, prepare for a series of media opportunities—20+ media hits are not uncommon. You’ll be booked on podcasts, radio shows, and featured in live and written Q&As.

Your press release will be distributed widely via a top-tier wire service for maximum exposure, emailed to a targeted list of at least 3,000 media contacts from our 25,000+ database, included in the BCE monthly tip sheet, and pitched by our team of publicists.

Scheduling is easy with integration into your own calendar, like Google Calendar. Plus, you’ll receive a monthly report with all your media clippings and highlights.

If you want more than just the essentials, keep scrolling to explore our Author Network services—an all-inclusive bundle designed to supercharge your book launch.
