The Incredible Power of Publicity for Authors
Plymouth, MI, USA - May 8, 2025 - Sometimes it's luck, sometimes it's the right timing, but the real secret to a book's success is publicity. Book Publicist Scott Lorenz is an expert in the field, helping hundreds of authors to push their work into the mainstream. But what is publicity, and why does it work so well? "It is not the same as advertising or marketing. Publicity happens much more organically, and it can be the key factor for an author's big break," Lorenz says. His article The Incredible Power of Publicity for Authors [https://book-publicist.com/the-incredible-power-of-publicity-for-authors/] is a testament to his knowledge and provides resources and advice for authors.Image: https://www.globalnewslines.com/uploads/2025/05/8002f1215a646fb359da2769515b875f.jpg
Publicity often begins with a campaign; this can include press kits, interviews, trailers, and more, but the main goal is clear: get people talking. True publicity starts there. "Interviews on podcasts, radio, TV, and print help truly motivated book readers to buy a book. If they like an author interview, they'll read the synopsis, check out the reviews, and then buy the book. If they like it, those book buyers become advocates themselves and tell their friends, family, and associates," Lorenz says. "For authors, there are tons of resources out there for publicity. Hiring agents, using social media, and traditional marketing are just some first steps."
Some noteworthy examples Lorenz highlights include British spy author Mick Herron, who got his big break through a raving review on public radio, Dan Brown, who changed the focus of his publicity by painting a new image of himself, and Rachel Ray, who used a radio show promoting her cookbooks to launch her tv career. Scott Lorenz also recalls a personal example: Jared Knott, whose work received little attention until Lorenz's company pushed him into the limelight through press kits, a book trailer, and dozens of interviews. Publicity works, and Lorenz has the proof to back it!
"Word-of-Mouth IS FREE but it takes a financial commitment from the author or publisher to get the publicity going so that word-of-mouth can do its work," Lorenz says.
