Publicity VA
Everyone is writing a book or beginning an entrepreneurial journey these days. A jump from the corporate world or a journey into publishing, while exciting, creates another set of problems. There is sometimes not enough time to complete all of the tasks necessary to complete the dream.
Many authors are working full time jobs and yet feel that God has mandated them to publish a book. Pam Perry, PR Guru, is well known as the authority on book publicity. The most successful of her clients have been through the PR Bootcamp Coaching.©
“Most people that contact Pam to assist are short on either budget or time. This is where I come in. Pam’s bootcamp will give you the perfect strategy to get your book “out there” and I can assist you in working that strategy.” says Hubbard.
The average full book campaign is $10,000.00 and 3 months of hard PR Work, although MMS offers full campaigns starting at $2,500 per month. “What people don’t realize is that it takes a full staff for a full campaign.” says Perry. “I have been coaching authors for years and the reason I decided to offer the boot camp was to share my years of knowledge to assist you in gaining the information.” This concept for authors is based on the theory of “if you give a man a fish, you feed him for a day. If you teach a man to fish, you feed him for a lifetime.” The goal of the bootcamp is to teach you everything you need to know to publish not only your first book, but those beyond. Once you have written your book is when the real work begins.
Ask anyone what the main issues holding them back in their publishing are and it is knowledge, money and time. Pam Perry of Ministry Marketing Solutions and Leah Hubbard of Wise Administrative Associates have teamed up to offer you real help in all of these areas.
Publicity Virtual Assistants are especially beneficial for those many first-time authors who are overwhelmed with the publishing process. By partnering with a Publicity Virtual Assistant, the stress of having to do it all while maintaining the rest of your live is drastically reduced and the author can rely on their PVA to take over and implement much of the publicity campaign.
