Novel PR runs hand-crafted influencer campaigns for authors who are done watching other books blow up and wondering why theirs didn't. We know this world from the inside: as strategists, as campaign builders, and as readers who genuinely cannot stop talking about books.
Most book PR agencies treat influencer marketing like a numbers game. Blast your ARC to a massive list, hope something sticks, send you a report that makes it look intentional. Novel PR exists because authors deserve better than that.
We're a boutique influencer marketing firm with 25 years in publishing, hundreds of campaigns under our belt, and a genuine obsession with getting the right book in front of the right reader. We work with authors across genres: fiction, non-fiction, debut, backlist, traditionally published, and indie. If you wrote something worth reading, we want to help people find it.
The thing that actually makes us different: every campaign is hand-built from scratch. No automated outreach. No templated blasts. No junior staffer who's never heard of your genre sending your book to an influencer whose audience will absolutely not connect with it. We do the work ourselves, we care about the details, and we know the difference between impressions and impact.
Every Novel PR campaign is built from scratch around your book's specific genre, tone, and target reader. We don't run templates. We run strategy. And yes, we actually read the brief.
We handle sign-ups, hand-pick every reader, distribute your ARCs, chase down the posts, and compile your reviews before launch day. So you're not doing it yourself at 11pm the night before your release. (We know you would, though.)
A coordinated reveal or release day push that actually builds momentum instead of one loud day followed by radio silence. Every post is personally timed, sequenced, and followed up on. No set-it-and-forget-it here.
We personally match your book to influencers whose audiences are genuinely primed for it. Based on genre, reader community, and taste. Not follower count. Not whoever happened to be on a list we bought three years ago.
Not sure what your launch actually needs? We'll look at your timeline, your audience, and your goals and tell you honestly what will move the needle and what's just noise. Then we'll build the plan and work it with you.
Physical books and curated PR packages sent directly to influencers who will actually photograph them, post about them, and mean it. We handle the coordination, the list, and the follow-up so you don't have to ship anything from your kitchen table.
Your best book might not be your newest one. We run influencer campaigns for older titles that deserve a second moment, because a great backlist push can move as many books as a launch, and most authors never think to try it.
Novel PR is taking on a small number of founding clients right now: authors with a release in the next 6 months who want a fully hand-built influencer campaign and are open to sharing their experience afterward. In exchange, you get a rate that won't exist once we have a waitlist. This isn't a discount. It's a bet on each other. (The good kind.)
We match ARCs to readers based on what you actually read, not a generic blast to a database. If you post about books and you're tired of requests that miss the mark completely, this list is for you.
Join the network. We'll be in touch when we have something that fits.
