Our Process: What to Expect from a Book Publicity Campaign

Step 1: Strategy and Positioning

We start by identifying the strongest news angles in your book and your personal journey. Then we package them for maximum appeal across print, broadcast, digital, and social media.

Step 2: Media Kit and Pitching

We develop a professional media kit, compelling press release, and custom pitch angles that speak directly to journalists and producers. Our outreach targets book editors, talk show hosts, podcast networks, and book bloggers.

Step 3: Visibility and Momentum

As your campaign gains traction, we keep the momentum going by securing ongoing placements and leveraging those wins to attract additional media, influencer mentions, and speaking opportunities.

Results: Real Media. Real Growth.

With a track record of national placements in outlets like Forbes, Reuters, The Associated Press, The LA Times, NBC, The New York Times, Today Show, and Psychology Today, our authors have gone on to become bestsellers, keynote speakers, and trusted media contributors.

"A friend recommended Kelila Shapiro/ShapiroPR when I was ready to publish my next books, The Father Factor and The Mother Factor. Her PR campaign brought tremendous press for my book in the U.S. and International media. I appeared in national media, including Good Morning America, MSNBC, CNN, Headline News with Glenn Beck, NPR, and a host of other newspapers, magazines, TV programs, and live radio. My Amazon rankings were huge in the U.S., Canada, and Great Britain. The rights to my book were purchased by publishing houses in seven languages, including Chinese. Needless to say,

we worked together on my next book as well with tremendous success here, and around the globe."
