Five out of five gold stars!”

— Iain Reading, Author of Kitty Hawk & the Curse of the Yukon Gold

“I have been so pleased and satisfied with the promotion and publicity that Kelsey has garnered for my book. Being a first-time author, this book publication and promotion journey has been brand-new to me, and I am so grateful that I found Kelsey to help me navigate this terrain! She came up with a beautiful media kit and tirelessly pitched my book to local news media outlets, radio and television stations, podcasts, bookshops and social media book reviewers, and was in constant communication with me throughout the process. I felt like I could always reach out to her with questions and suggestions. Her attention to detail and follow through is superb. I have been given opportunities to speak with so many people about my book that I otherwise would not have had. I appreciated her highly tailored approach to my campaign, finding reviewers who were my niche audience. Thank you so much Kelsey! I highly recommend her services.”

“I can’t say enough about working with Kelsey Butts and Book Publicity. She delivers results! If you are an author publishing a book- call her immediately. She will get your book in front of readers.  From the moment that she read my book in one weekend to her tireless devotion and dedication to supporting me in getting my book out there. She has endless contacts that are ideal for my readers. She really knows the ins and outs of promoting a book in this digital age. Plus she’s always receptive to new ideas. She researches them and delivers results soon thereafter. I’m thrilled with working with her and highly recommend her!”

— Galia Gichon, Author of The Accidental Suffragist

“I have had the pleasure of working with Kelsey and Book Publicity Services for years, and over that period she has consistently generated multiple objective reviews for each of the novels in my Pigeon-Blood Red trilogy.  Those reviews have appeared on Amazon, Goodreads, and Instagram.  Moreover, the reviewers have hailed not only from the U.S., but also from Canada and Great Britain and from as far away as Australia.  Throughout our relationship Kelsey has never failed to answer my questions or follow through with my requests both promptly and professionally.  In short, I can recommend Kelsey and Book Publicity Services without reservations.”

— Ed Duncan, Author of Pigeon-Blood Red

“I'm so thankful for Kelsey's brilliance, perseverance and creativity! She has proven to be the first publicity professional who actually delivers – with unflagging enthusiasm, accountability, and creativity in adapting to emergent media landscapes and in pitching my book to a wide spectrum of podcasts and other outlets. I couldn't be happier with her efforts and results, and she's a joy to work with, on top of all that.”

— Nina Simons, Author of Nature, Culture & the Sacred

“When Kelsey initially reached out to help me with PR, I wasn't sure I needed her help. I already had two best sellers under my belt that I had self-marketed, but I was drowning in PR requests and didn't have time to follow up or seek out new opportunities. I receive a lot of pitch emails for these types of services, but Kelsey's stood out. She was professional, to the point, non-pushy. I thought "If I want anyone handling my PR, it's someone who writes non-annoying pitches!" and the rest is history. Kelsey has taken a lot of work off my plate so I can focus in my zone of genius.”

— Lily Nichols, Bestselling Author, Real Food for Pregnancy & Real Food for Gestational Diabetes

“I was so impressed with the media exposure Kelsey and her team secured for me. They marketed my book to a wide range of platforms for optimal reach. Kelsey kept in regular touch with me throughout the campaign, and I never felt forgotten. Hiring Book Publicity Services was a great investment, and I look forward to working with them again!”

 — Lei Shishak, Author of Easy Plant-Based Cooking for Two

“It’s been a long journey to publish our book. And finishing the book isn’t the end, in some ways it is the beginning—that’s when the marketing starts. And even though we worked with a very large publisher, the majority of the marketing was left up to us, which is typical. Kelsey is the person who has helped us more than anyone else. Not only does she find good podcasts for us to join, but she continually comes up with creative suggestions that inspire us. In addition, she is on top of things at all times and extremely good at communicating. She has been a delight and if I write another book, she’s the first person I’ll call upon for help.”

— Jake Eagle, Author of The Power of Awe

“We released five children’s books and thanks to Kelsey & Book Publicity Services heroic efforts, reviews have been plentiful, posts abundant and sales stronger than we anticipated... Kelsey's knowledge of book publicity is impressive, her follow through is spectacular and her genuine interest in the book’s success is just so refreshing.”

Judith Proffer, Publisher at Huqua Press. Her children’s book titles include The Girl with the Magic Ponytails, Don McLean’s American Pie, Bondi & Poppy Help Heal the Planet, Broadway Baby, and When We Stayed Home.'

"Kelsey and her team worked hard to help promote my book and boost my marketing efforts. They reached out to hundreds of social media reviewers and podcast hosts, landed some good interviews and early reviews, and kept me fully updated on the results. Hiring a publicist is always a long-term investment, and Book Publicity Services can be a solid choice if your goals are to start building credibility and ensure that your book launches with strong reviews."

— Ryan Bush, Author of Designing the Mind

— Bennett Jacobstein, Author of The Joy of Ballpark Food

“I knew I needed a great PR company to help me market my first non-fiction book and I am so thankful I found Kelsey and her team. From the moment I signed on with them, they have worked hard to get my book wide visibility and press. Because of their efforts, guidance, and advice, my book has been in front of a large group of reviewers and bloggers, been seen by influencers, and I have had the opportunity for podcast, radio, and television interviews. I’ve been so pleased with their professionalism and how responsive Kelsey is to my questions and requests. And we’re just getting started - I plan on continuing to be a client of Book Publicity Services for a long time to come.”

“I had come across Kelsey's work after being approached for another author she was hired on behalf of and appreciated her follow up and attention to detail. When my book launched, her name came to mind and I am so grateful for all of the efforts she has made in my launch! With Kelsey's help I've landed podcast interviews with highly rated host, had raving reviews and have increased my social media presence to support notoriety and sales. Kelsey is highly organized and I so appreciate how careful she tracked requests, follow ups etc. to stay on top of all aspects of the PR campaign.”

 — Jaren Soloff, Author of The Postnatal Cookbook

“I highly recommend Kelsey and her team for your PR needs. Kelsey secured many book reviews, blog opportunities, and promo spots for my book. To my relief, Kelsey and her team also provided consistent social media management which gave me time back in my day to focus on my next book. I will continue to use her services for my next books.”

 — Corine Dehghanpisheh, Author of #BabyLove

“Kelsey made working on the publicity of my first published novel easy and fun. Together we targeted the who’s who of the wine industry where my novel is set along with all of the relevant influencers and Kelsey quickly grasped my world and the book’s target audience. I received a lot of great reviews and Kelsey was fantastic at approaching, tracking, and chasing everyone we approached. I look forward to working with Kelsey again on my next wine thriller where we will hit the ground running with all the groundwork laid out in front of us.”

 — Steven Laine, Author of Root Cause & Dragonvine

“Kelsey is amazing. She opened doors for my work that had been closed to me in the past. If you are a poet who is interested in getting your work read, hire Kelsey Butts and Book Publicity Services. Hiring her was the best career decision I ever made. Even though she represents other authors, I feel like I’m her only client. She is very responsive and treats you like you are the most talented person in the world.”

 — Katerina Canyon, Author of Surviving Home

“I found Kelsey and Book Publicity Services to be very helpful and very professional.  They clearly know their business and are talented. I would recommend them to other writers.”

– Ellen Rakatansky, Birds of a Feather

“Book Marketing is not easy and is often very time-consuming. Yes, you can write blogs and articles, share chapters, and send books out for reviews, but securing seasoned podcasts is now the name of the game for a new book. 

I initially hesitated to spend the additional money, as I have hired help in this area with little results for my other books. Still, I knew this access and reach was instrumental for new books and often depends on your visibility, network, and message.

I am thrilled to share that Kelsey has tripled my exposure with my new book. With numerous opportunities, podcast invites, and book reviews, my book is now global!

Kelsey and I worked together every week. As she created and shared opportunities for my book, I was busy shipping out books, scheduling podcasts, and sharing content. We hustled and made an effective team.  

I am so fortunate to have found Kelsey, as her experience, connections, network, personality, and work ethic are fantastic. 

Thank you Kelsey for extending my reach and sharing a piece of my work that means so much to me.”

“Kelsey has been an invaluable part of my book's success. From the start, she created a plan that was totally unique to my book, and her follow through is impeccable. She understands what authors need in order to tap into their specific audience, and because of her excellent communication throughout the process, I have learned a great deal as well. I foresee Kelsey being a part of my team for years to come, and trust her taste, commitment, and ability to get my book into the hands of the people who need it most.”
