We initially worked with Mark on his powerful first book about mental health after being appointed by his publisher. Mark and his family’s story was picked up widely by the national media and even saw Mark and his daughter being interview on the This Morning sofa. Following the success of the publisher campaign Mark hired us to extend the campaign and for the launch of his second book achieving extensive media coverage across the press.
We worked with Mark to generate book reviews and features in the media using their story as a case study. Mark loved the campaign and the results and didn’t want to stop after the initial book launch. He retained The Book Publicist to initially generate even more media coverage for his book and then to promote him and his business.
