Customized Services

A successful book launch combines tailored publicity, marketing, event management, and sales.

We've done it all and worked with a variety of clients including first-time authors and bestselling series; rock-n-roll photographers and graphic novel creators; the world's most famous cat and a future Vice-President, Academy Award-winning animated films and a memoir from the screen's most frightening horror villain. Each campaign is built from the ground up taking into account the specific nature of each project.  Let our experience work for you.
