Since 1997, Smith Publicity, Inc. has provided premier book publicity, book marketing and book promotion services to authors and publishers as well as public relations services for entrepreneurs, inventors and business leaders.
At our inception, we cut our teeth by taking on difficult book promotion projects and proving that effective publicity could be obtained for virtually any client via a blend of unbridled creativity, determination, and savvy media relations skills. Since then, we have handled over 800 campaigns, opened a London office, and earned an international reputation as one of the most unique, aggressive, and polished book publicity and promotion agencies in the industry.
The Smith Publicity philosophy is simple: Getting good publicity—the kind that boosts book sales, develops product awareness and sparks word-of-mouth—is a matter of finding an angle which interests the media. Regardless of your book, product, company or reason for seeking publicity, if you have interesting, entertaining, informative, controversial, unusual or simply useful information ... you can get publicity. We've proven this.
When it comes to books, unlike many agencies we promote virtually every genre—from non-fiction, self-help and business books to novels and poetry—we employ unique book publicity strategies designed by Dan Smith over a decade ago. While technology and the structure of the publishing industry itself have changed, the fundamental Smith Publicity approach has stood the test of time. We adapt to changes and routinely add new service offerings and develop new promotional concepts, but the Smith Publicity way is the driving force behind our remarkable track record of success.
Different by Design...
Make no mistake, Smith Publicity is not your typical publicity agency. From our sizzling press releases and attention-grabbing pitches to sophisticated and nuanced media relations, we know our craft well and practice it with flair and creativity.

We've been called “fearless publicists,” “unorthodox and incredibly effective,” and “attack publicists,” but no matter what you call us, with our proven track record and high level of attention to each client, you know you're getting the best book promotion service in the business
We are not like other agencies, and proud of it. We believe in hard work, good humor and goodwill, but we're also professionals who know how to move books, secure media coverage and most importantly … enable our clients to have the time of their lives while achieving their dreams.
