We have promoted more than 3,500 books and authors – the most ever by any book publicity agency in the history of publishing. Started in 1997 by Dan Smith, what began as a one-person operation has evolved into an industry leader.
Smith Publicity is ahead of the curve with innovative author promotion services and strategies. We also take pride in being an equal-opportunity book promotion company. We publicize quality books in all genres, both self-published or traditionally published. Our marketing services campaigns cultivate significant media interest and coverage of an author and book. The end goals are to spark book sales, build author brands, and create opportunities beyond the book itself.
Among leading-edge author promotion agencies, Smith Publicity is well-known for being the first book publicity firm to land a New York Times feature story for a first-time, self-published novelist. We also produced some of the earliest video book trailers. The agency is credited with developing the catch-phrase, "book as a business card," and was the first company to promote this book marketing approach. Also, we were trailblazers in using bylined article pitches for non-fiction authors.
The subject of book PR often brings up questions from authors. For anyone wondering, "how do I market my book" and "how do I get media coverage of my book," or similar questions, please give us a call. We're always pleased to help!
