Nation?s Largest Book Promoter Reveals Why Radio is the Most Cost-effective Way to Promote a Book

Nation’s Largest Book Promoter Reveals Why Radio

      Is The Most Cost-Effective Way To Promote A Book

Planned Television Arts (PTA) www.plannedtvarts.com, the nation’s largest and most prolific book promotions firm, is celebrating the 20th year since it trademarked its Morning Drive Radio Tour. Publishers and authors have promoted thousands of books with the tour, which is conducted by phone in a single morning with a guarantee of 20+ interviews scheduled with radio stations from across the country.  The listenership of a typical tour reaches millions of targeted consumers, with interviews on major local talk shows, network affiliates, NPR, XM/Sirius Satellite, and select syndicated programs. 

“We have conducted more radio tours for books than any other publicity firm in the country,” says Brian Feinblum, PTA’s chief marketing officer. “We do well over 300 annually, so we probably have done five to six thousand over the years.” As a result, PTA has seen how radio impacts the success of a book and an author’s career.

PTA’s radio tour service is unique in that it makes a money-back guarantee. “If we obtain more interviews than promised, we don’t charge anything more, but if for any reason we fall short of a stated guarantee, we pro-rate a refund,” says Brian.

Radio is a very popular means to making an impact for authors and publishers. The strategic reasons behind so many books getting promoted on radio includes include:

Authors don’t have to travel
Authors don’t have to worry about their appearance
Radio publicity costs less than other forms of media
Total number of Americans listening to radio has increased while circulation for print and viewership for television has eroded over the past decade

As part of the radio tour campaign, PTA provides the following services:

Schedule a guaranteed number of radio interviews
Media train an author by phone and email
Write the pitch letter and identify the strongest media angles

In addition to the Morning Drive Radio Tour, PTA also can provide a radio phoner campaign, where the author or publisher can conduct dozens of interviews by phone and schedule them over a number of days or weeks. PTA always customizes its radio outreach to select those stations that have listener demographics that closely match the anticipated readership profile

What helps to make your radio tour go smoothly?

Giving at least 4 weeks advance notice to schedule the tour – and allow for time to capture the best possible stations/shows.
Consider giving away several books over the air per interview.
Speak in 15-30 second sound bytes; don’t give away too much info about your book – but use the interview as a teaser to entice listeners take and action step to find out more; and tie your message to something – a holiday (Valentine’s Day); an honorary day (National Whatever Day), something in the news, something unique or outrageous, something fun, something that relates to famous people (give parenting advice to a celebrity) or something contrary to popular opinion.
Prepare five points that you want to stress in any interview, regardless of what the host asks or the length of an interview.

Authors and publishers typically benefit from doing a radio tour as follows:

The advance schedule of interviews can be sent to major chain book buyers to generate pre-orders
Successful interviews increase sales
Magnifies branding of your name
Allows you to control and define how the public perceives your vision or ideas in your own voice
Positions you to collect higher fees for your services as an expert or speaker
Garners more Web site traffic
Creates a dialogue in the media and public – and stirs a buzz of debate on you or your topic
You actually help people and improve lives with your message
Publicity gives you lucrative credibility and currency in the marketplace

PTA, a full-service book publicity firm, also offers targeted services to promote authors to all areas of news media, including local and national print, television and radio. They have specialized services that include:

·         local road tours

·         online media campaigns: bloggers, Web sites, podcasters, e-blasts, article syndicators

·         holding press conferences

·         media coaching and consulting

·         press kit development

·         messaging and branding

Why Frameworks Should Be Required For Custom Web Application Development

Think of the internet such as a block of houses in your neighborhood. Many of the houses in your neighborhood are built with different materials. Some houses are made of brick, wood, and mortar. Some are built of metal but when it really gets down to it, the best built house will always make it through the most inclement of weather.

Now think of building a house like a <a rel=”nofollow” onclick=”javascript:_gaq.push(['_trackPageview', '/outgoing/article_exit_link']);” href=”http://www.bluewebdev.com”>custom web application development project</a>. Many developers in the business nowadays try to cut corners by building applications without the proper materials. Many sites are operating with straight PHP code that executes commands going down a page. Whats the problem with this style of coding? The problem is that a straight PHP file with executing commands poses many problems, for one lets go back to the idea of a house. If you were to build a house and instead of build rooms, combine everything into one large room without doors and walls, wouldn’t you feel cluttered and unable to locate certain items? The same logic applies to web development.

Frameworks are basically the building blocks to a web application. Just like with a house with rooms, frameworks operate with the same logic. That logic is organization. Frameworks were built so that your web application can easily be managed without having to sift through hundreds of lines of code just to debug issues. By utilizing the use of a framework you can now seperate all of your actions into seperate files, and you can organize your code so that if something breaks on your application and you need to debug the issue, you can easily find the code thats causing the issue and resolve the issue. As you can probably imagine, this concept of organization and reusable code will save you tons of hours in web applications development.

There are many different frameworks available to use. You can use cakephp, codeigniter, and many others to help. Here at Blue Web Development we primarily use cakephp just because of the amount of code thats already developed and available to be used quite readily. Cakephp also features a great templating engine as one of its primary core features, we suggest that you check out cakephp.

Now the million dollar question. How do you use a framework? If you are a beginner PHP developer or even an expert PHP developer we recommend that you use cakephp to start just because its probably the easiest to learn for users at all levels. Usually though a framework consists of the following structures:

Model – Think of a model as the small parts and engine of a car

Controller – Think of a controller as the steering wheel, radio buttons, temperature buttons in a car

View – Think of the view as what you would see through the windshield, through the speakers in the car, and feel through the vents

Now imagine that you are in your car right now, you want to listen to the radio so you click on the volume button in your car to turn the music up. You have just interacted with the controller, the clicking action that you sent into the radio, interacted with the radios internal parts and hit up the model, the model then sent back the music to be played louder through the view (which is the speakers).

Simple enough right? This kind of logic is what you will mostly find in a framework, you will find a system that will look for an action, take that action from the controller and invoke data and process that data through the model, and then take that data from the model and display it on the view (which is usually the web browser).

Now your probably asking? How do I send my action into a controller? When a developer first looks at cakephp or maybe even codeigniter you are probably trying to figure out how does it all work? Its actually quite easy, in most frameworks there is a component that has developed that is usually called “the router”. The router usually some code that basically asks two questions. Those two questions are:

What do you want to do? What action?

What are you sending me? What parameters?

Once these questions are answered successfully, the router will take your action, and your parameters and send it all into the controller for processing.
