Authors & Publishers
Welcome!
Whether you’re an author or a publisher, you want your book in readers’ hands!
Our aim at Book Sages Publicty Tours is to organize a campaign to meet your promotional goals best. Book Sages campaigns are hosted by passionate, positive, and enthusiastic readers buzzing about books through blogs, reviews, and social media platforms.
Hosts are our essential volunteers and talented influencers eager to spread the word about Christian and/or sweet-read titles (wholesome, clean, closed-door, etc.). We have various campaigns available, ranging from conventional blog tours and review collections to focused exposure on social media platforms.
With creativity and dedication, JustRead will work with you to help increase your book’s exposure and readership. We’re happy to provide custom quotes if you don’t find what you want within our services. For best results, we recommend scheduling 6-9 months in advance.
If you want to schedule a promotional campaign, please review our services and complete our campaign inquiry form.
OUR SERVICES
General Information
BookSages provides fully organized campaign sign-ups, marketing, host selection, giveaway entries/winner selection where applicable, and follow-up with each host’s stop. A launch post will be published on BookSages website or our social media platforms.
Clients, please be prepared to provide:
- Book Information: high-resolution cover image, synopsis, publisher, release date, genre, author bio, author image
- Special content: excerpts, guest posts, interview responses…etc.
- Review or promotional copies (ebook/print)
- Giveaway prizes (We are happy to brainstorm with you if you need ideas.)
Note: While we always encourage our hosts to review books received, certain campaigns do not include the hosts’ commitment to review the book by a certain date or our collection of direct review links. Those campaigns are marked as “no review collection” below. Hosts may or may not choose to share reviews on those campaigns.
