Shawline Publicity
SHAWLINE EXCLUSIVE AUTHOR PUBLICITY OVERVIEW
Shawline Publishing Group Pty Ltd is pleased to offer our authors a choice of exclusive publicity support campaigns. These publicity campaigns will be managed by our newly aligned and experienced publicity manager, Andrew Tudehope, who has many years of key experience in the media industry. His guidance will help the sales potential of your book and help you reach new readers.
As you know, Shawline offers collective promotional support to our authors to help them kick start their book promotional journey, but we do not always provide a one-on-one exclusive publicity campaign, until now. We are excited that we can offer this direct publicity for you to build a greater brand for your talent.
Marketing is a competitive landscape for new authors to achieve growth in, and all the support assets need to be explored and used to kick off future and ongoing success. We are open to planning this process further with you. Your investment and time will be key to potential of your future satisfaction.
Shawline has created your book to the highest quality and provided the kick start for your publication promotions. Now the next steps are yours to choose.

AWARENESS BOOK CAMPAIGNING
The Australian media industry is complex with much space being offered only to the established brands and personalities. We do not promise our clients the world like most agencies. Rather, we promise to create awareness around your book by presenting you to our extensive contact list with the key goal of making sure that everyone – from Vogue magazine to local schools – will know about your book. We believe in quality results rather than collecting our clients a handful of wins that have no impact on the growth of their books. Authentic pitches are our focus.
