EDC Creations Publicity Services
Different authors publish for different reasons. For some, their goal is to be
recognized as an expert in their field, using a book as a supplement. Others
publish books to motivate people with their inspirational message, impacting
lives. Others publish simply to entertain or to share their take on current
affairs. But when all is said and done, in order to achieve their personal
goals, authors need to generate book sales.
EDC
Creations and its partners are proud to provide authors with the most
comprehensive selection of Web 3.0 marketing and promotion services in the
industry today. Below, you will find the various programs and services that we
have put together to help you create a buzz and ultimately generate demand for
your book.
What is Publicity?
At its core, publicity is the simple act of making a suggestion to the media
that leads to the inclusion of a company or product in a story. Newspapers,
magazines, TV programs and radio shows have large amounts of space to fill and
depend upon publicists to help provide story ideas, interview subjects,
background information and other material. We help you create the mystical buzz
that will get you noticed!
What is Public Relations? Public Relations is a broader field that
encompasses publicity, but also includes such things as investor relations,
crisis communications, special events and sponsorships, and other activities
designed to mold opinion.
EDC Creations specializes in creating Internet Publicity and PR for authors,
small business owners, and publishing houses. Our publicity team begins each
publicity campaign with a strategic brainstorming session to discuss competitive
titles, author positioning, campaign messaging, potential target markets, target
media outlets, and tactical marketing and promotions timelines. With this input, the
campaign manager formulates a comprehensive strategic plan and budget, that
guides the course of the entire publicity campaign.
We
look to our authors and publishing clients for suggestions and input, and our
clients retain final approval of the strategic plan for their campaign. We use
this information to chart the course of obtaining publicity for your book or
business. Each client is provided a publicity plan and a marketing plan for
their book or business. Our flat rate packages are listed below.
Submit your payments here. Fill the PayPal form out
completely. Sorry no eChecks please. The packages are listed below, we look
forward to working with you.

Creations would act as your virtual assistant and ghost blogger. We will
monitor the posts, comment with the branded material prepared by the author and
track the conversations. We would also provide a written report of the results
from the project. The author provides us with the material once, and we spread
it across the web, to the readers.
