Books

GRPR is the only firm of its kind specializing solely in representing works of entertainment created from a Christian worldview.

Did you know that 25% of consumers purchase a book because someone told them about it? According to a recent news article from the BBC, the only more important factor in making a book buying decision is whether the reader was already familiar with the author’s name.

Knowledge of the industry and its consumers is a powerful tool at GRPR. We’re not just publicists, we’re readers and lovers of story. We “get” the people we’re trying to reach because we’re just like them. With relationships at widely varied media outlets—from The Today Show to the Washington Post and Romantic Times BOOK Club to Christianbook.com—we can help get you and your book in front of readers. We also have a database of bloggers ready to host you on a blog tour if you'd like. We specialize in getting your books to entertainment media outlets, ensuring targeted coverage that results in increased sales.

We’re often asked, “Shouldn’t I just use my money to purchase ads in a lot of locations? At least that way, I’m guaranteed coverage, right?” Well, yes, you’ll definitely get the ad you paid for. And if your goal is to see your book cover in a magazine, then we say go for it. But if your goal is to sell books, then publicity has proven a more effective strategy than advertising. According to PRSA, publicity is five times more effective in securing the desired behavior from the consumer than advertising. Five times!

Publicity campaign fees vary widely depending upon which services are being applied to the campaign, the length of campaign, and a host of other factors. If you'd like to discuss a publicity fee, please feel free to email us. We would love the chance for discussion.
