Lifestyle, Personal Development, Health & Wellness
In health, wellness, and lifestyle nonfiction, credibility is everything. Readers in this space aren’t just looking for information — they’re looking for voices they can trust.
Smith Publicity understands what it takes to build that trust through media. Every campaign we build here is designed to position you as a reliable, credible guide in the conversations that shape how people live, feel, and care for themselves and those they love at launch and long after.

“Teaming up with Smith Publicity gave me and my publisher an incredible edge.”
“More than two and a half years after I engaged Smith Publicity to generate buzz around my first book, I’m still getting media coverage and interview requests from across the nation and around the world. Teaming up with Smith Publicity gave me and my publisher an incredible edge.
Their tireless efforts on my behalf opened doors to dozens of A-list news outlets and helped my book break through the noise to get the attention it deserved. This is an agency powered by the best and most plugged-in PR folks in the business: pros who’ve cultivated an impressive network of contacts across print, broadcast and digital media. And as a bonus, they’re the nicest bunch you’ll ever meet.”
