Authors and Publishers

We specialize in virtual book tours, social media services, and work with authors and publishers on custom campaigns. 

Do you need book reviews? Our virtual book tours cover most genres. Our reviewers are global, and have a ton of fun creating high-quality review posts on blogs, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, and on Amazon and Goodreads, as well. 

Do you need more followers? We can work from your Twitter or TikTok account to build your following and find reviewers for your works. We do not use auto services or bots. We find the right people to follow so that you get the right people following you back. We send every review invite personally, and clean out unfollowers. And we make sure your information and accounts are kept secure and private. 

Do you need written or podcast interviews? We can arrange Q&As with bloggers or podcasters we know, or pitch a list you provide. 

Do you need advice on running paid ads or a marketing campaign that fits your budget? We offer free voice or video call consulting. 

We like to be a part of the buzz. So we work every day. We love to see old and new books buzz. We love to see the happy buzzing responses from authors. And we certainly love the buzzing creativity reviewers put into their posts; they are the heart of this business. 

Premium Tours

Motion art banners are sold separately. All premium tours will still come with a flat banner and all reviews will be shared with graphics. If you would like to have a motion art GIF or MP4 made with the cover of your book, for the tour banner + an unbranded version not related to the tour, please let us know. Our motion art videos are made frame-by-frame using professional software — Photoshop, Corel and Procreate. To keep the cost affordable, we are not able to edit the videos. Before purchasing, please have a look at the motion art videos on Our Tours page, and place your trust in our artist. Motion Art GIF/MP4: $75 USD
