Testimonials

Ascot Media Group, Inc., is among the brightest stars in the Galaxy. Observing for three years, I watched Ascot closely before I chose them to help promote my first book, Goodlife, Mississippi. I wanted the world to not only know about my new book but to also come to know my name. Ascot did not disappoint. At present, my book is offered in 10+ countries because of the dedicated, promotion given to it and my name by Ascot.

When I began, I had nothing to put on a website, now I have an interview from all but one major TV networks, countless podcast interviews, and over 100 print book reviews and ratings from Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Goodreads, the United Kingdom, my home state of Mississippi, and more than I can list here. Google is filled with pages and pages of my name, my book, and interviews throughout the world. I solely contribute this to Ascot.

Like many first time novelists, I believed that my book would be of interest to everyone who liked to read. Truth or fiction in that belief, if not for Ascot, only a few longtime friends and a handful of strangers would have maybe purchased my book. It would have never received anywhere near the accolades and attention that it received and is still receiving if not for Ascot.

Trish Stevens and her team are extraordinary. Trish is the ultimate professional, and if I may, in my humble opinion, likely more connected than any world leader when it comes to the marketing world and knowing those on social media throughout the world. I have experienced this. I write from a place of knowing, of truth, and of wanting to help others promote their gifts in a positive, truthful way, and with the enthusiasm and the honesty that Ascot offers.

The writer I worked with was Wendy Cornett. I have been an editor and a writer for well over two decades, and I can write with experience that I have never worked with a more talented writer than Wendy Cornett.

Trish’s entire Media Team, Public Relations (PR), Marketing & Social Media Firm at Ascot soars with talent. You will not be disappointed by choosing Ascot. If you do your part and follow Trish’s guidance, you will be busy day and night and night and day with the leads provided to you. There are not enough words in the any language to describe how happy you will be with your decision to choose Ascot to help you with your gifts–your offerings–to the world.

Ascot along with your hard work will truly give you a reason to get up in the morning. I can promise you that. That’s why as a gesture of appreciation and in good faith that I have named a Star in the Galaxy for Ascot Media Group, Inc. I no longer will have to look up into a dark sky and wish upon a star for my book to be successful; I will simply contact Trish Steven at Ascot Media Group, Inc., for my next book, and my next book, and every book thereafter. Ascot is my Star. Let Ascot be your Star. Ascot can help you shine.

It is with the highest praise and with complete confidence that I recommend Ascot Media Group, Inc., who is among the brightest stars in the Galaxy, to you.”

90 Days around the media world and a fabulous book campaign extending from interviews with NPR, BBC News, Apple TV, American, Canadian, Australian and Italian Magazines and so many wonderful podcasts. Thank you, Trish, because under your direction and Kimberly’s implementation Ascot Media is the best in the PR/Publicity business.

As an author I wanted a variety of exposure with radio and podcasts. The press releases refreshed by Wendy did exactly that, true perfection in the system that you use at Ascot.

My newest book, Zen Rohatsu, hit #1 on the Amazon bestseller list in 3 categories and remained there for the month of new releases. In Zen we say DEEP BOWS Ascot Media and kudos to the quality of the work you do. I will return with the publication of my next book hopefully close to Christmas.

Ascot Media is an amazing resource for authors! As a self-published author I really needed some professional assistance and guidance to obtain exposure for my book Soldiers’ Blood and Bloodied Money Wars and the Ruling Elites. From my very first contact with Ascot’s Head Publicist Trish Stevens through the explanation of the various programs offered and through the account setup process, Ascot has performed admirably. An excellent written guide is communicated as to how they operate on an author’s behalf, and they indicate exactly how to respond to media leads generated by their extensive media lists, which, most surprisingly, even include international venues. Kimberly McCall forwarded me some great leads. Their most capable wordsmith, Wendy Cornett, developed a press release and worked with me to ensure it was agreeable. If my experience is any indication, you will be busy following up on the media leads they generate! They are a delight to work with and I am grateful for all they have accomplished for me and my book!

I am exceedingly grateful to Ascot Media Group. I usually received about 6-9 leads a week during my first campaign. They provided a couple of resources which made things effortless, such as how to respond to leads and how to prepare for your interviews. I am blessed to say that I was consequently featured in Newsweek Magazine during this campaign, as well as Spectrum News 1 Los Angeles, radio stations in the East Coast and Canada, The Table Read UK Creativity Magazine, Authority Magazine, e27, and more. To several people around the world, this has greatly boosted my story about Autism, Autism Acceptance, and my encouragement to those with disabilities and their families. The subsequent engagement and compliments came in after most programs that I have been on. Again, I greatly credit Ascot Media Group for this success.

Sincerely,

Trish Stevens and Ascot Media are the epitome of a first rate, “make it happen” team. For my new book on counter-terrorism and atrocity prevention, Ascot Media generated several author interviews on news & podcast platforms, numerous book review requests, as well as author’s op-ed placements discussing & promoting the book. Trish coordinates a highly efficient and effective team – from framing the initial media “pitch,” to mass distribution of same across a huge range of platforms, to linking the author with the interested media parties. As a first time book author with a contrarian take on a serious and difficult topic, I give Trish Stevens and Ascot Media 5 out of 5 stars – and a grateful “Bravo!”

Three of my Christian books, emphasizing positive aspects of what the Bible refers to as the end-time, and one of my sports books have been publicized for some time now by Ascot Media Group through TV, radio, podcasts, print, blogs, website postings and an op-ed. Ascot Media’s publicity has also produced many reviews of these books, and some by prominent publications.

This past year has been the most productive of my life in the most important projects for me, Christian missions and communications. The heroes of this story are Ascot Media’s Trish Stevens, Helen Cook and Wendy Cornett. Trish, founder and director of Ascot, has treated me with consideration. While nearly everyone else was raising prices during the runaway inflation of the past year and a half, Trish reduced my costs since I had been onboard awhile with multiple books. Helen has worked with me personally from the beginning. She organizes important events, including all of the interviews. She has an ear to listen to my cries for help. Wendy is the best and one of the most enthusiastic writers of press releases that I know.

Thank you, Ascot Media Group!

Trish, Kimberly, Wendy and everyone at Ascot Media were incredible to work with when I was promoting my book: Life on the Grocery Line: A Frontline Experience in a Global Pandemic. They made the process easy and enjoyable. I received over 120 leads ranging from Good Morning America to The TODAY Show to NPR. They helped me shine when going on Good Day Chicago or Good Day LA with sage advice. Trish fought tooth and nail to help me get the chance to write an article for TODAY.com. Everything about the experience was exceptional and I can’t wait to work with them again on my next book.

Trish Stevens and her team at Ascot Media Group are a pleasure to work with. The campaigns are clear, well organized, and – best of all – productive. After an excellent experience with a previous book, I turned to Trish again for my most recent book, and I am delighted with the sheer number of radio and podcast interviews that have occurred. I still have many more on the calendar for the coming months! What I like best – beyond the prompt and personal service – is how clear and straight-forward the campaigns are. I never wonder what’s happening; the volume of responses speaks for itself. So, yes, am pleased to recommend this firm!

I highly recommend Ascot Media Group when looking for a publicist and will be referring everyone I know. When I reached out to them, unlike other companies who made promises, they did not; which I admired. They were very candid and honest. They have integrity. Their prices are reasonable and nothing is hidden. They under promised and completely over delivered! You will not be disappointed with the service you receive from them and it will be the best investment you make in yourself.

It has been an absolute pleasure to work with Ascot media on my book promotion. Everyone at the agency has been helpful, responsive and clearly vested in my success. The bookings received exceeded my expectations and included TV appearances, podcast interviews, conference presentations and guest writing opportunities in global publications.

I would not hesitate to recommend Ascot Media to anyone, I actually had to take a break from their services as I was overwhelmed by the number of opportunities provided as a result and struggling to keep up with responding to and attending all the media opportunities provided. Highly recommend and thank you Ascot Media!

As an author and a publisher, I have had extensive engagement with public relations companies, publicists, and advertisers. It is a rare opportunity to work with a group as dedicated and professional as those who work for Ascot Media Group. Trish Stevens, the manager, takes the helm like an experienced and vibrant sea captain who charts a course that succeeds in traversing the world of media. She directs complex campaigns, like our mixed media “The Adventures of Hillary the Little Ladybug” series, with aplomb and intuitive genius. All of us at Jongleur Books are thankful and appreciative of their, ‘it’s just another day’s work’ attitude.

“It’s been such a positive surprise and great pleasure working with Ascot Media Group.

The owner Trish Stevens is personally involved to a degree I didn’t expect and was very happy about, and from Trish all the way down to every one of her colleagues with whom I worked, Ascot is exceptionally professional, efficient, and effective.

Beginning with the consulting provided on the first press release for my novel Crisis Deluxe, everything about my experience with Ascot was first class.

They took on a daunting task: obtaining reviews, blog posts and TV and radio interviews for a debut author of a self-published novel—and delivered extraordinary results!

Along the way I met wonderful people from around the country and the world with a genuine and sincere interest in literature—thanks to Ascot’s proprietary lists of media and social media contacts.

I can’t say enough about my great experience with Ascot!”

Chris Coffman

“My experience of working with the team at Ascot Media has been most positive. The response to my book launch was instant and continued throughout the PR campaign, The nature of the enquiries was quite diverse, which was especially welcome and resulting in my participation in twenty radio interviews across US and Canada, as well as mainland Europe and my homeland UK, which included BBC National Radio. A further ten reviews/articles were posted in international magazines and global news media.

I have no doubt that Ascot Media was instrumental in helping my book reach the top 20 best-selling books on Amazon Kindle top 100″

5 1/2 years ago I received a new mission, “To Impact A Million People A Year Through Story.” This year, I signed up with Ascot to help me accomplish that mission, and they certainly did. The doors that opened far exceeded my expectations. Not only did I get many interviews, podcasts, articles, radio & TV that had a reach of several thousand but many that had a reach of well over a million as many as 60+ million. The team at Ascot have been a delight to work with. I can’t recommend them enough.

Trish, I wanted to take this opportunity to thank you and your associates at Ascot for the outstanding results (an average of 12 media hits per week for many weeks) that I have been getting from the marketing campaign for my book, Deep Flavors. You and your people have been incredibly helpful, but even more importantly, the results have been truly amazing.

For example, never did I expect to have my book reviewed in the New York Times, never mind such a wonderful review as the book received:

Ascot Media made the impossible possible. The professional staff was able to reach top editors from America’s best publishing firms. Offers to publish my novel Chains of Slavery came in fast. I  received the first one from Crosslink Publishing within days. Another one from Wipf And Stock Publishers followed shortly thereafter. Their process is simple, and the results were incredible. I can’t begin to express how pleased I am with the work they did.

I was to a point in my career where both my brand and my various ventures needed consistent messaging from a publicist. Having worked with publicists in the past I was nervous about whether they would capture the true essence of what my mission is. Ascot has blown me out of the water with their professionalism, speed to market and quick response time. Since working with them I’ve been on all major media outlets. I highly recommend this incredible agency, the fabulous team, and a special shout out to Trish, who always makes sure the details are just right.

TO: Ascot Media Group

FROM: Steve Alten, best-selling author of The MEG — the book that became a block-buster movie in 2018 starring Jason Statham.

Ascot’s untiring efforts to get publicity for the book provided great national coverage here in the USA and overseas.

Ascot is way beyond a public relations firm…. They’re a relentless team that not only accompanied me on my journey—but made absolutely sure I crossed the finish line!

I have worked with the Ascot team on and off for at least 12 years now, using them to promote several of my books (see www.stevealten.com). I’ve tried other PR firms with big promises between times, but always returned to Ascot—realizing that they are, without a doubt, the best PR firm out there. Hands down, they are the real-deal!

Don’t hesitate using them. They have a great reputation worldwide with authors, publishers and the media.

Steve Alten, Ed.D.

The team at Ascot Media need very little introduction. Here’s what you will get while allowing them to showcase your product to the media. You will first get first class representation. Secondly, you’re going to see opportunities that take your breath away. Thirdly, you’re going to see them pick you up from the shock of great solid leads, then walk you through how to professionally communicate with each media person to land it! I received many high profile interviews having only done just one month of launching a campaign. Do yourself a favor, give them the keys and the wheel to your next launch, I guarantee they under promise and over deliver!

John Mouser

Ascot Media Group worked closely with me to promote four of my books. Trish and her team’s hard work brought several interview requests every week. My busy schedule is difficult to work with but they were persistent, efficient, and timely. They quickly responded to media inquiries and requests of my own.

The team is extremely knowledgeable and motivated. If you need anything or have a question, just ask! They are up for a marketing brainstorm any day of the week. I had successful interviews for TV, Radio, blogs, and print. You are in excellent hands with Ascot Media Group.

I have published three previous novels through “vanity” publishers who promised to publicize the books with very little yield. My last two books (“Lynne’s Last Christmas: A Battle With Dementia” and “Our Great Escape: Part 1: Dumbers”) were truly self-published. When I was approached by Ascot Media with an offer to publicize these two books, I was skeptical based on my previous experience with “publishers”. In just one month, Ascot’s campaign led to over thirty inquiries from various media (radio interviewers, newspapers, bloggers, and book reviewers) that will keep me busy promoting the books for several months. I would recommend Ascot Media for any author interested in publicizing – and selling – their books.

Thanks again Trish,

Just a short endorsement of Ascot which did a great job of getting two books of mine, Work and Wealth in Scripture and Cleared for Landing: On Leading a Christian Life, some excellent exposure among book reviewers, some television and radio spots, and, in sum, they really do deliver what they promise. I enjoyed the professional and personal exchanges with the staff at Ascot and recommend them as people who indeed do what they say they can and will do.

Ascot has been terrific to work with, and they do get results.

I have used a few different PR firms. Many are a rabbit hole of promises and false hopes. Ascot is the real deal. They did a great job with my first book. They secured numerous high-end endorsements, over 50 reviews, 4 TV interviews and multiple radio and pod-cast interviews. At one point, I had too many interviews! Trish is sincere and they all work hard. I just signed up with two more books with them, and the results are even better. I am happy with their results, and I do recommend them.

Being a new published author, I wasn’t sure what to expect from a PR/media firm. When Trish Stevens reached out and immediately set up an introductory call, I knew I was in great hands. She took the time to walk me through the entire process and then immediately followed up with a number of invaluable resources. I have been so pleased with the quality and number of leads from the initial press-release. Trish and her team are truly a delight to work with-so much so- I’ve renewed my contract with Ascot Media.

I was referred to Trish Stevens for marketing my first book, Fighting Parkinson’s…and Winning. Trish immediately was responsive to my needs. Within a few days of getting started with Ascot Media Group, my first press release went out. It was a professionally drafted press release that expressed the core of my book. I received 14 media leads the first day, including requests for radio interviews and people who wanted to read my book for review.

Throughout the media campaign, I received over 50 media leads, had many radio interviews, and have received professional reviews of my book. Some of the media outlet leads have included ABC radio, a couple of world-wide radio stations, and journal editors from publications at a few large universities.

Trish and Ascot Media Group exceeded my exceptions by delivering very solid results on my PR campaign. Ascot Media Group has my highest recommendation. They know their business well, are easy to work with, and they are extremely responsive to their clients.

Burning the midnight oil on a phone call with Trish Stevens turned out to be a blessing.

The Ascot Media Group walks on deep water when it comes to their clients. Deep water calls for being rooted and grounded. Knowing who they are and keeping the vision etched in their hearts and in front of them is how they stay grounded.

With their clear vision, the response has been immediate. I received major radio interviews, magazine and blog reviews, and television is next.

Thank you Ascot Media Group for your resilience and strategies for every client.

It is a blessing to know them. They are actually God-sent!

Ascot marketing was highly recommended to me from an extremely knowledgeable publishing consultant in my area. I was a first-time author and knew very little about marketing. I called Trish Stevens and she answered all of my questions thoroughly with genuine enthusiasm for my book, College Basic Training. She truly went above and beyond to help prepare me for this adventure!

I signed on without hesitation and was equally impressed with the Ascot writers. They diligently gathered details about my book and me before they wrote the press releases. Their communication was excellent, polite and professional. They welcomed my ideas and worked with me to make sure I was satisfied. The very first month I was getting emails many days of the week from radio stations, bloggers, magazine and newspaper editors, and Internet talk shows. Ascot supplied me with a tip sheet on how to handle responses and interviews which was also extremely helpful.

I was able to establish a strong Internet presence, including excellent reviews from reputable sources. It’s much easier to make headway on your own when someone can search the web and find positive information on your product! I am extremely grateful I found this efficient and economical resource. The group at Ascot is top notch—they truly want their clients to succeed.

I was beyond pleased with the results they helped me achieve with my book. Whether you’re a first-time author, or one who’s published a few books, you will definitely benefit from their brand of marketing. They work tireless to ensure that your product will hit its target audience. I very much look forward to working with them on my future projects.”

“I wrote a book called Counting Down Bob Dylan: His 100 Finest Songs. I was very proud of it and thought, with a successful blog, a platform as the writer for a national magazine, and some persistence, I’d be able to market it well on my own. Yet even though the people who got their hands on the book really enjoyed it, I just couldn’t seem to get any traction on a national or local level in terms of directing people toward the book.

In preparation for release of the second book in the series, Counting Down Bruce Springsteen: His 100 Finest Songs, I contacted Ascot Media Group. First of all, having checked out a few other book publicists, they were by far the most affordable. But they also delivered incredible results. Within weeks I did seven interviews, fielded inquiries for about 40 review copies from all over the country, and am scheduled, once the book comes out, to do more interviews, including several opportunities with Sirius/XM and possible coverage in The New York Times.

That’s all thanks to Ascot Media Group, who put together an outstanding press release, got that press release in just the right hands, and guided me every step of the way through the process. I even used the press release they sent me, targeted some local media myself, and got several more bites that way.

I cannot recommend Trish Stevens and her outstanding staff enough. I even received a free e-mail blast for referring another author to Ascot. And, without hesitation, I will definitely be employing them for future releases. If you need top-notch publicity for your project and don’t want to clobber your bank account to do it, there is really only once choice: Ascot.”

Trish Stevens and the Ascot Media Group have been an incredible boost for Isla Animals. We are a dog rescue on Isla Mujeres, Mexico and she has helped us get the word out and raise awareness on the horrible conditions these animals live in and how we can help them. Everyone on her staff has been helpful and supportive as they promoted us through magazines, radio and TV spots. I couldn’t have asked for anything better.

​For me, Ascot media is a success. My publisher had helped produce a good product and even assisted with some promotion, but I believed the story was not going to be discovered without more effort. The choice for me was letting my story languish in likely obscurity, or ramp up the promotion. From another writer I heard good things about Ascot and so I enlisted its services. Ascot definitely can accelerate the visibility. I bought the one month plan and the result was: three newspaper articles, about 30 interviews that produced about 1500 radio station segments. Moreover, I believe there is a good chance I will have a secondary push from my interviews. The word will spread; other media will discover the story.

Ascot is a friendly, energetic organization. They provide some excellent guidance handling interviews and communicating with media organizations. I always felt I was dealing with an exceptionally professional organization, and one that was very interested that I had success and maximized my potential from their services. I have absolutely no complaints, only good feelings and a sense that the Ascot services were worth my investment. Ascot did its part to help my book succeed, and it lived up to all of my expectations.

REGARDING ASCOT MEDIA

As an author with more than forty books in print, several of them NYT best sellers, I am use to expressing ideas and emotions when I have a hundred thousand words to play with. But to try and define the team at ASCOT in just a few paragraphs??? That is one tough assignment!

How about: Brilliant, Motivated, Supportive, Professional, Genius. Hmmm, that would just be starters. Maybe a few sentences to describe what they’ve done for me: My career had been going rather well, but felt it could go higher and on a very blessed day a writer buddy, also an NYT best seller suggested I give ASCOT a call. I am not exaggerating on this. . .within seventy two hours of saying “let’s team up,” ASCOT calls me back and asks if I would be interested in going on FoxNews. Within hours after that my book was heading to NYT best seller status. And that was just for starters!

ASCOT is a professional team and I love their contract system. If you are new to this, you’ve maybe heard horror stories about public relations teams that demand much up front and deliver little. Not this team. Their “pitch” to me was simple and straight forward. “Try us for a month and if not happy, we shake hands and go our separate ways.” With the last book, that month turned into a year, and long afterwards I was still getting interviews and friendly “tips” from this team. In fact my publisher was so impressed THEY hired ASCOT to help market my latest book. What better recommendation can there be than a NYC publisher turning to an outside firm to enhance an author’s sales.

So, in conclusion. “TRY ‘EM, YOU’LL LIKE ‘EM!”

Sincerely,

I would like to start by saying thank you very much, you were a God send, just in time when I was so desperate, when I had spent all my savings in publishing book one in English and Española but, the worse was that I was taken by people who claims to be publicists but they are just charlatans. Bad, mean, greedy people who do not care about others. In my case I was taken by three different so-called publicists. They each charged me more than $20,000 dollars and did nothing for me. In fact, my previous publicist, in the period of 4 months, only got me 4 radio interviews, and it took him a month just to prepare my press release. When I spoke to Trish, I was reluctant to do it, but what she charges for a one-month agreement was like a gift for me, so I gave it a try.

In three days she had my press release ready to kick off for the first distribution of the campaign. Right on the same day of my campaign I received three interview leads. In a three weeks period, I had 21 media leads in which 16 were scheduled, and thanks to Ascot Media, I was on Washington DC’s UNIVISION and KBMT NEWS 12 in Texas. Trish is a God send to help us all. She delivers what she promises, she is honest and caring, and the money what she charges is like a gift. I just hope people will come to Ascot Media before they spend all their money with charlatans publicists!

God bless you Ascot Media/Trish/Staff. You saved my author career. I will forever be so grateful for your services, and will surely continue to work with Ascot Media.

Sincerely,

Ascot Media Group has been outstanding to work with.
The press releases they come up with get immediate results!
I’ve had the pleasure of spreading the message of my book My Cat Won’t Bark! (A Relationship Epiphany) on several radio stations both in the U.S. as well as in Canada. It was not until I began working with Trish Stevens and her team that I started to get written about in blogs, major newspapers such as the Chicago Tribune and also got TV appearances like WGN-TV Morning News. Opportunities for additional TV and radio appearances are still rolling in! I would not hesitate to work with Ascot Media Group again on my future book promotions. Special thanks go out to Trish, Monica, Amanda, and Lin! They truly are a dream team to work with.

My only regret is that I did not connect with them sooner!

I feel so grateful for being on the receiving end of the quick and conscientious customer service, professionalism, and zeal for excellence exhibited by Ascot last year during the big launch of my three books. I never had to wait long for my call to be returned or my e-mail to be answered. You gave spot-on advice when it came to marketing my new titles, and your support staff treated me with the utmost care and respect. And on top of all this, there came a time when I had so many radio interviews based on your press releases that I was actually looking forward to things slowing a little bit! I saw a direct link between those radio interviews and book sales. I will not hesitate to use Ascot when I launch my next title. Thank you for a very positive marketing experience.

I have used Ascot Media for several of my book promotions and have only the highest praise for their exceptional, professional work. From the moment I submitted my novel’s information, Ascot took over, moved swiftly, and prepared a polished profile which they expedited to the appropriate contacts only. I could not expect better media exposure and, best of all, for a very reasonable fee.

It is with great gratitude and appreciation that I recommend Ascot Media! Wow, are they ever good at getting you the leads that you are hoping to find! Trish Stevens and her staff have been nothing but awesome to work with. The folks at Ascot Media are real, caring individuals who help you strive to meet your promotional goals. They reach out to you and treat you part of a family!

As an author I have explored many media companies and publicists that always promised the world and delivered very little. I had really given up hope on most of them until I ran into Ascot Media Group. The fine staff there promised little, except they thought I’d see a lot of benefit by engaging them. It was an honest answer so I engaged their services thinking, “Here we go again”. Within hours of their first press release I had numerous requests for interviews, followed by a barrage of the same. I found myself engaged for radio and TV interviews across the country within a week, and it was so hectic that, frankly, my bookers and personal assistants could barely keep up. Ascot Media Group is the best PR company I have found in over a year of searching. They promise little but deliver the world.

In 1976, he took on the challenge of managing Lynyrd Skynyrd tours, and witnessed and participated in their meteoric rise to fame and worldwide acclaim. After recovering from the tragic plane crash that put an end to the original Lynyrd Skynyrd, Eckerman went on to produce in television, film, and stage, and taught theater and artist management at Santa Monica College. Ron Eckerman has been writing short stories, technical manuscripts, and financial articles for the past few years.

Ron Eckerman’s book “Turn it Up!” is a memoir about his experience with the 1970’s concert scene and the rise and fall of one of the world’s most legendary rock bands, Lynyrd Skynyrd.

I have been pleased with the professionalism and effectiveness of Ascot Media Group personnel in publicizing The Black Book. What’s more they are pleasure to work with and
unstinting in their efforts.

Dear Trish:

I want to congratulate you and Ascot Media Group for a very successful traditional campaign in October 2012 to promote my book, Uncle Al Capone – The Untold Story from Inside His Family.

We had 164 responses to the news release that was sent out and as of today those responses resulted in 21 interviews for radio, skype and magazine. Due to the national election, there are a number of interviews that were delayed.

Thank you and we will continue with Ascot.

Best,

“In addition to a great deal of other leads, Ascot Media Group was responsible for getting me my two biggest leads, an interviews on NBC television in Los Angeles and one on Coast-to Coast AM with George Noory, both of which both led to excellent sales. For authors that can present interesting content Ascot is one of the best ways I know to help get your message out the media, no other PR company can match their reach and their press releases are extremely persuasive and well written.”

Hiring Ascot Media to garner media attention for my first book, Thirty Days with My Father: Finding Peace from Wartime PTSD (HCI Books, Nov. 2012), was the best thing I’ve ever done. Within the first six weeks, my book was featured on Fox News, CBS, NPR, NBC, and CNN–not to mention radio shows all over the world.My book rocketed to #1 on Amazon, and has remained a best-seller since it was published. There’s no way this would have ever happened without the team at Ascot, and I’ll recommend them time and time again to any author I meet who seriously wants to sell his or her book.

Best,

Ascot Media delivers what they promise….thirty plus media hits with coverage of all types. Some of these were major news outlets such as Fox News.

Trish Stevens is lovely to work with and a true professional. I am absolutely thrilled with their services.

As the author of From Heartbreak to Heart’s Desire Developing a Healthy GPS (Guy Picking System), I decided to run a brief Valentine’s Day campaign with Ascot Media. Wow! I was amazed by the response I got. I could hardly wait to look at my email everyday. I would recommend them to anyone looking for short or long-term representation. I’m a satisfied customer and I will be back!

Ascot Media gets authors PLENTY OF PUBLICITY! Trish Stevens is a dedicated and sincere professional who gives each author individual attention. She and her hardworking team have the longest list of high-quality contacts you could ever hope for. They know everybody who’s interested in books, all across the country — TV producers, radio producers, magazine editors, newspaper editors, influential bloggers, and more.

Trish makes sure that her authors get all the coverage they need. She updates outgoing press releases frequently, targeting all the important markets for each book.

Ascot has a ton of clients, but Trish has a way of making each author feel special and important. I strongly recommend Ascot Media for authors who would like to spread the word around about their books. Ascot gets results, and their staff members are completely first-class.

Ascot Media generated over 300 media responses within weeks. As a result of Ascot Media’s efforts, Sports for Dorks received coverage from major print, radio, broadcast and internet channels from across the country.

The team is professional and the approach is efficient. We look forward to working with Rick, Trish and the team in the future.

When we decided to write a book about menopause we thought, “Oh, let’s go away for a week to upper Michigan and let the muse do it’s magic—how hard can it be?” Well, pretty damn hard actually. If we’d only known then… Anyway, after three and a half years of query, proposal, agent, publisher, writing, revisions, and edits; the still imperfect manuscript went to press. Whew, now we can relax and reap the rewards of our labors. Right. However unprepared we were for entering the world of publishing, we were even less prepared for the real job of writing—selling the darn book. Like the stacks of books we read about writing, agents, and publishing we launched (belatedly) into studying stacks of books about how to market a book (doesn’t that sound strange). Which is fine of course, if you have loads of time to burn; but we found that having a real job in addition to our budding writing “career” put a damper on how much we could accomplish on our own. Which is another way of saying, we could not accomplish squat. Our publisher (O-Books) recommended Ascot Media: finally, something useful from the publisher.

Ascot has given us the opportunity to promote our book in a manner that does justice to the material we cover: TV, radio, magazines, editorials, reviews, and personal appearances. We have been on sixteen TV interviews from New York, Chicago, LA, Minneapolis, New Orleans and all parts in between. We have had three or four dozen radio interviews many of them one-hour programs, and we have become semi-regular guests on the Doctor Radio on XM and Sirius radio. None of this would have happened without the hard work and persistence of Ascot (and their secret contact list!). Monica Foster, our immediate PR agent working under Trish Stevens, has become like family. (We get more emails from her than we do from our kids.) She has worked and reworked our marketing campaign to good effect. When the muse gets around to writing our next book, we will at least save a lot of time and energy by contracting with Ascot Media straight off.

If you want to maximize your efforts in marketing your book, service or talent, go no further than Ascot Media Group. Their knack for understanding exactly what it takes to get top results for clients works each and every time and they literally work around the clock until they get it! In all my years in the publishing industry, I have never seen a company work equally as hard for a first-time author as they do for a renowned celebrity. They have earned great respect from the media by proving their credibility time and time again – they are good at what they do, they are honest and genuine, and the media knows they can trust what they get from Ascot.

I speak from experience. Farrah Gray Publishing has been using Ascot’s services for approximately six months and I never fail to be amazed at the onslaught of leads that pour in for our authors – from top media outlets that include USA Today, The Today Show, Conan, ABC, CNN, Fox, Howard Stern, Entertainment Weekly and Intouch Weekly – too many to list here. Having received well over 800 interview requests for our authors in just the last sixty days, I have to say that in all my years working with the media I have NEVER found a team like Ascot’s who are so dedicated and so on top of their game that they achieve this kind of media frenzy – ever! I trust them implicitly and feel secure in the knowledge they will expertly, as only Ascot knows how, bring in top results each and every time!

Dr. Farrah Gray, international best-selling author and CEO of Farrah Gray Publishing (distributed by HCI Books, the original publishers of the world famous NY Times, USA Today, Guinness Book of World Records, and the best-selling Chicken Soup for the Soul series).

“Thanks to all the talented and motivated folks at Ascot Media for your excellent work!

Launching any product is difficult, regardless of the resources at your disposal. But if you’re a first-time author with pennies to your name, getting your work in front of readers is nearly impossible. I’m with a major publisher — and even so, there was no money for PR when it came time to launch the book.

That’s where Ascot Media came in. I heard about them from another enthusiastic author. It was a good tip. They offer a variety of plans with different service levels; I chose to handle incoming leads myself, Ascot’s lowest-priced offering.

This value-priced service was just as effective at getting press leads and queries as a full-priced agency program. There is no difference in quality of contacts — despite going this ‘cheap’ route I still found myself doing drive time radio interviews nationwide. I got so many leads there were days when I’d panic about how I was going to find time to talk to all those media outlets and still keep writing!

If you’re looking for heavy media exposure without an extravagant price tag, Ascot Media is absolutely the best resource available. You’ll get real contacts and real exposure. I recommend Ascot without reservation.

Without Ascot Media, I could tell people I’m a published author. With Ascot Media, I can show them I’m a published author — because my book is in bookstores.”

Ascot Media has been vital to the success of my book Axis Sally: The American Voice of Nazi Germany. I heartily recommend Ascot for your publicity needs. Ascot is extraordinarily professional and genuinely supportive of its clients’ needs. Trish Stevens and her team have gone above and beyond my highest expectations – garnering national and local radio exposure, as well as many features in major newspapers in the US and abroad. Ascot has done, and continues to do, a remarkable job. They get results!

Richard Lucas – Author of Axis Sally: The American Voice of Nazi Germany

In our first month with the Ascot Media Group and Reliant Public Relations, we have received dozens of responses requesting interviews for radio, TV, book reviews and appearances in connection with our book, “Nine Lives of a Marriage – A Curious Journey.” The memoir is about Hungarian Holocaust survivor, Eva Friedlander, who also survived her husband’s 45-year affair.

Eva Friedlander with Mickey Goodman authors of Nine Lives of a Marriage – a curious journey

We employed three different PR firms at our own expense before our publisher started using Ascot Media. We only wish they would have found them sooner! Dollar for dollar, they are leaps and bounds over what else is out there! We are first-time writers, so like most new authors, we wanted to do everything to get our book noticed. We paid a lot of money to one firm who specialized in TV, a lot of money to another firm who specialized in radio, and still MORE money to another firm who specialized in print – and none of them have gotten the results of Ascot Media, who got us attention in all three areas. At a fraction of the cost of other PR firms, Ascot has gotten us results that we never even thought possible. In our first month, we were so inundated with radio, TV and print requests, it was actually kinda crazy! At one point, we were doing about 3 interviews per day! And thanks to them, we also did a West Coast TV Tour (from San Diego to Vancouver) that really helped our sales.

We know a lot of people out there think that traditional PR firms are dead in the age of internet social media. That may be true for some PR firms, but Ascot is definitely alive and kicking! They know how to use the internet and their extensive e-mail list to create a campaign that really gets results. We’re struggling first-time writers and we have NEVER endorsed anyone before, but Ascot Media has our confidence and our respect. Please give them a try. You won’t be disappointed.

To Whom It May Concern:

If you’re looking to get lots of quality bookings, I highly recommend Ascot Media for the job. Each month I entrust Ascot with a myriad of authors to promote and each month I have very busy authors engaging in interview after interview.

Trish is also expert at customizing programs to suit the variety of needs of each author for his or her book. I’ve been in the publishing business, running a publicity department for almost 17 years and only wish I’d known about Ascot sooner!

I would like to say I have been more than pleased with my experience with Ascot. As my book was being published with PENDIUM Publishing, I found on their website a link to Ascot Media and what they could offer for me to publicize my book. I was hoping to find a PR firm to work with, but Ascot has been effective beyond my wildest dreams! Ascot got over 30 leads for me in the first month! I have gotten several reviews and in my first month, I have already had a phone interview on a nationally syndicated show! Anytime I have had a question or needed help, Ascot’s staff has been quick to reply and take care of my needs. I can’t imagine working with another PR firm. I plan to work with them on other projects in the future and I feel they put my work in a position to succeed. I can’t thank Ascot enough!

Thanks,

9 Tenets of a Successful Relationship (Facebook)

About a month and a half after of trying to single-handedly promote and market my newly released autobiography, reality hit me square on the jaw… I was getting absolutely nowhere in regards to exposing my book to the media outlets; the only analogy I can think of is:” it was like feeding a whale a tic-tac”. In this analogy, my book was the tic-tac and the media was the whale. I realized that I needed help… and fast! I turned to good-ole ‘Google’ on the internet. I typed in ‘Affordable publicist in Texas’ on Google search and several links popped up. I started working my way down the list… leaving message after message… after message. About the sixth one from the top was Ascot Media. Like the other calls I made, I was expecting to leave another message but to my surprise… someone answered the phone (CEO Trish Stevens). To make a long story short, Ms. Stevens had me at ‘Hello’! I signed with Ascot Media on the spot; it was the best decision I ever made in regards to getting my book out to the media main-stream! I’ve been with Ascot Media for a little over a month now and almost immediately after I signed with Trish’s firm, I’m averaging two radio show interviews per week; we also have some heavy-hitting public figures and media moguls in our sites… and they all look extremely promising! Bottom-line: I can go on and on about how much I love Ascot Media and how great of a job they’re doing for me… and that I would never work with another publicist firm other than Ascot Media! No one… and I mean no one can come close to their rates! They will literally be there for you 24/7! They‘re Media packages they provide are set up in a way where they are damn near custom-made for you; Simply put, they are the best in the business!!!

Ascot Media, from the bottom of my heart…
THANK YOU (Trish and Lisa)!

If you’re wanted by the FBI, hiding out from your in-laws, or just simply desire to remain anonymous … DO NOT CALL ASCOT MEDIA GROUP! However, if you have a book and want the world to know then Trish and her merry band of publicists can put you on front pages in major media markets and make you a familiar face on the talk show circuit. I sensed there was something special about Ascot Media the first time I inquired about their services. Now I know what it is. They don’t use some arbitrary check box to satisfy themselves that they have earned their modest fee. As long as they are on the job for you, they don’t ease up, they don’t quit, and I doubt they even sleep. So DO NOT CALL ASCOT MEDIA GROUP … I want them all for myself!

I can’t believe how much publicity I have gotten from your program. I know you told me this would happen, but I couldn’t believe it. I have heard so many empty promises before, but this is AMAZING and full of truth! In just a couple day I have had over 35 media people contact me requesting my book, information, interviews, etc. I have even gotten us booked as regulars on a major radio station.

UPDATE: 2011

I had a FABULOUS experience with Ascot Media and am continuing to use them every month since I first tried them. Since we have used Ascot we have had numerous BIG radio interviews, we are contacted by both radio and TV (major networks), and they are very cost effective.

I have referred several people to them and they are all VERY happy with the service. We now have our own radio show thanks to the continued exposure we get through them! If I had to refer for a service – this is the one.

The team at Ascot Media is the absolute best! I used their services to promote my three new books; The Tap, Burst This! Frank McKinney’s Bubble-Proof Real Estate Strategies, and Dead Fred, Flying Lunchboxes, and the Good Luck Circle.

All represented entirely different genres, and Ascot approached each one with the same energy – always managing to reach top media outlets and getting more leads than I have seen from all prior PR firms.

I also used them for assisting in the marketing of my latest oceanfront property, Acqua Liana – a $22.9 million dollar home that has been billed as ‘the greenest mansion in America,’ as well as helping raise awareness for our non-profit organization Caring House Project Foundation that builds homes and a self-sustaining existence for poor and homeless families around the world.

The versatility of Ascot’s team is evident by the diverse projects I have given them in our business dealings and how they have successfully handled them. They are never daunted by a project, but instead welcome the challenge and strive to get the best results possible. I would recommend Ascot Media and its results-oriented team to anyone wanting to promote their product, service or self.

Ascot Media has been the first PR company that we have worked with. I never expected to get the response to our book SOMETHING YOU FORGOT…ALONG THE WAY that we did. In one month we got over 80 media leads. These included requests from the likes of CNN, NBC, CBS Early Show, Fox News, Reader’s Digest, and Marie Claire, just to name a few. This has lead to 7 radio interviews, with more in the pipeline, and 17 printed reviews, not including the mentions on many websites.

Ascot Media is the second public relations company that I have used, and the difference between them and my first PR firm could not be more striking. In three months with my first PR firm (which was more expensive, by the way), I got two book reviews and about half a dozen radio interviews. In seven weeks with Ascot, I’ve had:

• a couple dozen radio interviews
• half a dozen television interviews – including my first nationally syndicated TV spot
• front page reviews on cnbc.com, foxbusiness.com, and Business Week
• a review in the largest newspaper in Canada
• multiple requests to write magazine articles
• more leads and requests for interviews than there are time to do

And that’s just seven weeks! No telling what will happen in the next several months. Ascot has been quick to respond, always friendly, and infinitely more effective than my previous publicist. If there’s any problem at all, it’s that they’ve been so good at generating leads it’s impossible to keep up! I couldn’t be happier, and I have every expectation that you will feel the same way.

UPDATE: 2011

Just an update on Ascot’s success for me – since July 2010 I have been a regular guest (3-5 times a month) on a business show on Fox Business News. You can see clips of my appearances on www.jeffhavens.com. This opportunity has opened a door that I hope will lead to many more. And none of it would have happened if it hadn’t been for Ascot. They got me more than I could have hoped for.

“Thank you, Ascot Media, for dramatically helping to increase my book exposure! You offer great value, professionalism, and responsiveness. I appreciate the quick phone calls and e-mails so that I have been able to take advantage of last-minute media exposure opportunities. You guys are the best!”

Update:
You are the best publicist! Thank you! I have booked 3 radio interviews and have 4 potential TV events from just the last two days in the 14 leads I have received. Thank you! “Clutter Clearing Choices” article appeared in the September, 2010 issues of USA TODAY p.p. 67-69 complete with photos!

Thank you, Ascot Media!!!

I’ve been meaning to write for ages to thank you for your fantastic PR efforts on my behalf in the marketing of my book ‘Emotional Intelligence: Journey to the Centre of Your Self’ published by O-Books. You put me in touch with some wonderful people and I was extremely pleased with the level of interest and the number of articles and interviews I gained. I’m sure that your activity went a long way towards the level of sales in the U.S. and the profile I achieved on Amazon. I would recommend any author interested in creating a market for their work in America to use you.

On a personal note, I would just like to thank you for your untiring work and congratulate you on the fact that you don’t appear to need sleep – I wish you could bottle it!

I look forward to the opportunity of working with you again on subsequent books.

Ascot Media Group – The Great Change in the Global Book Business

When I went looking for a publicity group to launch my coming novel, She-Rain (debuting nationally in March, 2007), I longed for what I thought an impossibility: People as professional as they are aggressive, confident, utterly tireless, devoted to blasting a title into mainstream media and equally committed to setting off a viral buzz that runs through the internet sphere as a virtual pandemic of the title/author brand. That’s an order as tall as that sentence is long. Ascot Media actually meet that standard, then go soaring over it.

Ascot respects none of the usual boundaries of a work day. When most of us sink into slumber, Ascot’s team is up, on the phone, e-mailing, planning, expanding the contact base and looking for just the topical pitch that launches titles into the New York Times bestseller zone. Too many publicity houses dwell on composing and sending news releases around shot-gun style at editors. Ascot, rising far above this boilerplate approach, builds relationships on behalf of a title and the writer. They garner the free media absolutely necessary to building a magnetic and credible brand that captures mindshare among media and key book buying demographics. There’s no substitute for a publicist who knows how to get you and your book to make news. Ascot as a team are the most tireless news generators – and buzz makers – I’ve seen in the industry.

With my publishing house, Morgan James, I get to work with the legendary Rick Frishman and his terrific publicity group. It’s a blessing. Rick, however, completely blesses my added relationship with Ascot.

LETTER OF RECOMMENDATION
As an author who has published nine novels, including three NY Times best-sellers, my biggest challenge with each new book is to generate publicity. What many new authors fail to realize is that today’s book sales affect tomorrow’s publishing deal, and if you are not doing everything you can to generate sales, then there may not be a next book deal. The challenge in hiring an effective publicist is that all of them talk the talk, but very few actually walk the walk. Bigger firms usually delegate tasks, sending out mass e-mailers, then following up by e-mail, sending the author a tally sheet of everything they have “done.” Publicists conveniently confuse activity versus accomplishment, and the results can be awful…and awfully expensive.

My experiences with Ascot Media have been far different. The owner personally oversees each campaign. They are cut above the rest of the class, and having run my last three campaigns in the last two years, has proven to be a very wise investment. Ascot’s PR campaigns, simply put, are less expensive yet much more effective than any other plan I have known over the years.

The team members are extremely dedicated and always available.  I am glad to have found Ascot. They reach out to hundreds of thousands of media outlets weekly, and the amount of interviews that come in from the press release distributions are very high.  I receive on average about 15-25 radio or TV interview requests during the campaign.  Never has any PR firm been able to do that for me in all my years of writing.  I highly recommend Ascot Media Group.

I’m a first-time author. I have been published twice in academic journals related to my profession, but just recently had my first book published on a personal topic that I’m very passionate about. I worked for months to promote my book, but it wasn’t until my publisher suggested I work with Ascot Media that my book finally grew wings and took off. Thanks to Ascot Media, within three short months, I have been on numerous radio interviews, including two nationally syndicated shows. I have my first television appearance next week on San Diego Living and then KTLA television in LA. Next month I’ll be in NY doing another television show and a nationally syndicated radio show. Thank you Ascot Media! I couldn’t be more thrilled with your results! I highly recommend Ascot Media to anyone wishing to promote their book, concepts or ideas.

“I was dubious about paying for publicity, but since none of my previous books had made much of a splash, my co-author and I signed with Ascot Media for “Travel Within: The 7 Steps to Wisdom and Inner Peace.” Within weeks, we had interview requests from affiliates of all three major TV networks (ABC, CBS and NBC) plus Fox News. In the last three weeks alone, we’ve done 14 radio, TV and newspaper interviews, with our voices heard coast to coast in the U.S. and throughout Europe. We’ve also done 10 signings and lectures and had 31 requests for review copies. At one point last week, “Travel Within” was selling faster than over 99% of all titles available on Amazon.com. Ascot Media has exceeded our wildest dreams.”

Dave Cunningham – Co-Author, “Travel Within: The 7 Steps to Wisdom and Inner Peace”

Ascot Media has been the best choice I have made for promoting my book. I am very pleased with the amount of contacts received with each press release distribution. I have received countless leads from National and Local TV, Radio, and Magazine outlets which has truly benefited my book sales and established my mark as a reputable author. This really has been excellent exposure for me and my book which has led to several great opportunities.

The staff at Ascot Media has exceeded my expectations when it comes to being professional and personable. They are always so quick to respond to any questions I have and go above and beyond when promoting my book and distributing my press release. I have been very impressed by their frequent efforts to keep in contact daily, if not weekly keeping me up to date with current leads and contact inquiries. Ascot Media has truly been outstanding and I recommend them to anyone looking to promote their business or product.

Thanks, Ascot Media Group. I’m amazed by the blizzard of stuff coming through.

Keep up the good work!

Author of Your Roots Are Showing

From the moment I heard Trish Stevens’ (Owner of Ascot) voice on the phone, I knew I was in good hands. Any author can hire a publicist, but finding a publicist who manages to raise an already elevated level of enthusiasm is precious. More importantly, Ascot Media delivers. After the first press release for The New Jew was sent, I received more than a
dozen requests for advance copies from media outlets I never would have reached on my own. I was thrilled. I wrote to Ascot Media Group that I was happy with the response and they immediately wrote back, “There will be more!” They were right. I have half a dozen television and radio interviews scheduled, including a one-hour radio program in New York, and that is after just two months of contracting with Ascot Media.

Ascot Media’s intro plan is a perfect way to venture into a relationship with a publicity company. They make the initial contact with the media, and I follow up with the responses. It is good to know that, at any time, I can increase my level of service to a full publicist plan. It is clear that they are committed to making my book known to the public. The icing on the cake is they make the entire process fun. With their energy and spirit, I am constantly reminded how lucky I am to be here.

Ascot Media has proven their worth over and over to me, with getting me on many radio interviews, newspaper reviews, and even recently on Fox and Friends. They are worth every penny and more.

Recommendation for Kim McCall and the Ascot Media Group

When searching for representation throughout the media world, diligence and relentless effort are key, but follow up with meticulous attention to detail are the real secrets of success.

Kim McCall of the Ascot Media group is the follow up queen. Kim, Trish Stevens, and their associates have broken all barriers to the carefully guarded media world and have not only hurdled the maze of traditional safeguards but have made friends with the media gatekeepers!

After communicating with several authors regarding publicist firms, there can be little doubt as to the fast-paced results from Ascot Media, and how far ahead of the norm, Kim McCall and Trish Stevens are.

The following is a testament of a newly published author and the publicity story of Lost and Found.
After contacting every newspaper and magazine nationwide, advanced reading copies were dispersed and 18 rave reviews were collected prior to publication. Book cover-art was then the focus and Ascot was relentless until the cover art was perfect. After publication, nationwide radio interviews followed along side numerous press releases. Television interviews were next, local and network, with Fox and Friends opening even more doors that were quickly pursued by the clever ladies at Ascot Media.

After 11 fast paced months with the Ascot Media Group, I find that not only am I well represented by the best in the business, but the experience is as fun and exciting as if I have my very own Jerry McGuire working hard to, “Show me the money!”

From Author, Tom Williams

My name is Bill Forstchen and I’m the author of over forty books. I will admit up front that I can be considered insane for at least two reasons. First, that I would actually sit down and write forty books. Second, for the longest time I believed nearly everything my publishers told me. . .especially when it came to marketing.

Whether you are just getting into the business, or an old hand, we’ve all shared that incredible thrill of opening a letter after months, perhaps years of waiting and read. . . “Dear author, we love your book and want to publish it!”

Those first months are like a honeymoon. . .all those wonderful promises of life long love and devotion. “We are going to put you at the top.” Or, “You’re our A list author and wait until you see how we sell your book.” “We’re building your future and we’ll be partners for life!”
Some honeymoons actually do work, but for most of us in this business, you quickly discover that. . well, the day after publication your beloved “spouse and life long partner” no longer respects you. . .in fact can not even remember your name. . .and something seems to be wrong with the joint bank account! And hey, where did she go. . . all the furniture in the house is missing and even the house is gone!

So consider this next paragraph to be a little “infomercial” for Ascot Media Group:

“Having problems with your publisher. Tired of walking into your local book store and you can’t find a single copy of your work? Have you been sitting by the phone for months waiting for someone, anyone to call for an interview and all you hear is a dial tone? Did your publisher promise “on the souls of his grandchildren” that they’d turn you into a best seller and you find out he has no grandchildren! Then call Ascot Media Group today.”

Seriously though. Publishing is one helluva brutal business. We, the authors get into it for a lot of reasons, but I think one common denominator above all else is that we love books, we love writing, and there is the streak of the idealist in us. Publishers? “It’s not personal, it’s business.” And that business rarely considers you the individual. You are just one book of a hundred or more they might market this year. Sure they will have the one or two fair haired favorites that some attention is lavished on, but for most of us, enough copies are run off to turn a profit for them, and that is it. Could your book have been a best seller? Maybe. . . but if the publisher didn’t plan for you to be a best seller, then dream on because it just ain’t gonna happen. I learned these hard truths across twenty five years of slowly crawling up the ladder. My success did come thanks to half a dozen books with a very famous co author and friend, but when it came to titles I still wrote on my own. . . zero effort even though my co authored books won near universal praise for story and style, my co author lavish in his praise of my ability.

A good buddy in the business, a consistent NY Times best seller had been hammering me for years about the main step to success. To hell with what your publishers promise. Most of it is hot air, (he also references what can be found in pastures as well). If you study how the top players made it. . . they had their own publicist. That is the key. Someone who works for you and with you. Someone who has a stake in your success, someone who is a pro who knows marketing, which frankly very few of us authors have a real grasp of.
My friend is right. Long before publication of my latest book “One Second After” early reviewers were telling me that my book was absolutely my best ever, and that beyond that it was an important book with an important message. But yet again, all those early honeymoon promises from the publisher. . .yeah right. I could see the book was heading for oblivion.
Well this time I decided to fight back and fight to win.

My best seller friend pointed out Ascot Media to me and I gave them a call.

A few emails, a half hour on the phone and we had a contract.

Why? Well let me say something about her contract first. I’ve heard a lot of horror stories about alleged publicists that lock you into a six month or year long deal for a lot of bucks and then you never hear from them again. Successful or bomb, you still must pay them every month. Ascot Media is more than happy to start for just a month or two and openly says “try my team out and if you are not happy you are not tied in.” That was refreshing, it put the performance demand on her right up front. Second, Ascot offers several different packages and there is no “hard sell,” on their part. Ascot Media is frank and open, laying out the benefits versus cost of each. Ascot is more than happy to provide referrals from other people in your particular line that have worked with their team and urges you to feel free to call them for an evaluation and advice. And finally, well there is just something about Ascot Media that won me over within a few minutes. I figured if they could do that, then this is a professional group who understands selling and the market.

I am writing this after only a few weeks of our working together. I am deeply impressed. I find emails from the Ascot staff time stamped at 3:00 AM setting up a potential interview. Their press releases are hot and they know how to peg the right spot in the market.

I think Ascot Media Group is a winner and they can make you a winner too.
In closing. If you had to chose between trusting a publicist in your publisher’s office who works for the corporation, or a publicist who works directly for you. . .who would you believe first?
Feel free to call me at any time if you wish to talk it over. If you want to hear some horror stories about being an author or feel like sharing a few of your own, I’ll get out the scotch or whatever you prefer while we talk.

And then sign on with Ascot Media.

Sincerely,
William R. Forstchen
Author of over 40 books

I highly recommend Ascot Media for all your publicity needs.

To Authors and Publishers

We want to take the opportunity to recommend Ascot Media Group to both publishers and writers who are looking for a marketing team to help promote a book. The Cults of Relativity is a book geared toward unique audiences. Ascot Media Group and their viral marketing took the extra effort to find the audiences interested in the technical side of Dark Energy and Relativity. The fact that the book also deals with how Dark Energy is tied to biotechnology made their job that much more difficult. Their effort to work on press releases until they found the one that caught the public’s attention was noteworthy.

Ascot Media  has a natural talent for lining up interviews. We both have worked with several other ad agencies in the past, and none have equaled Ascot Media’s performance. We highly recommend them.

I am an American author that lives in France, though I visit the United States often. I recently hired Ascot Media Group to handle the publicity for my book Storm Over Morocco which is about how I was imprisoned by a group of brainwashing militant Muslims.

Ascot Media Group are a very efficient and loyal team. I was surprised that by the end of the first month of working as my publicists, they hadn’t wasted any time in setting up 5 TV appearances (including one radio interview), across the US, of which three were broadcast live, including 2 Fox News interviews. I’m looking forward to my next TV tour that is presently being arranged by this team. I highly recommend them to anyone needing a jump-start on publicity.

As a brand new author, I was admittedly quite overwhelmed not only by the nuances of the publishing world but even more so by the marketing required for a new book title by a previously unpublished, although known, writer.
And then ASCOT Media came into the picture.

The ASCOT Media team has embraced my project and made it as important as if it were their own. And my scheduler, Monica Foster, has dedicated her self to the success of the message of The Santa Letters with a passion equal to my own.

Their offices are out of southern, Texas and it was interesting for me to note that not even a natural disaster like hurricane Ike could deter their efforts as they got back to work as soon as they could and rallied behind me. It was humbling to hear their cheerful voices void of complaints as they rose above the chaos that surrounded them and got to work not wanting to disappoint me.

I have not only been blessed with a super publicity group but with friends who embrace my passion and do everything they can to help me share my vision. If you want a publicity company that will not only put their best foot forward but will stand behind you 150%, go to ASCOT Media.

To Whom It May Concern:

My name is Steve Alten and I am the N.Y. Times best-selling author of seven novels. I have worked with no less than a dozen publicists since my first novel, MEG, hit best-seller lists in 1997 and have been frustrated by the mixed results and wasted dollars spent. For my eight novel, THE SHELL GAME, I hired Ascot Media Group to do a viral internet blitz. The results have been incredible.

Ascot targeted websites, blogs, and organizations that believe in the message of The SHELL GAME. They received requests for advanced reading copies from over 300 groups representing tens of thousands of supporters. A month prior to the book’s release, the publisher presold 37,000 of the 40,000 first prints. During the first month of its release, The SHELL GAME hit numbers 33 and 31 on the NY Times best seller list.

In addition to the viral campaign, Ascot targeted the media in the thousands, resulting in radio and television interviews that also helped push me on to the NY Times best seller list.

I highly recommend Ascot Media to anyone looking for a big return on their advertising buck.

Letter of recommendation for the Ascot Media Group

Dealing with media is not unlike walking through a large and very old house with darkened hallways and many locked doors. There are obviously actions occurring behind the closed doors but to the outsider these sacred doors can be impenetrable as bank vaults.

With Ascot Media, the old scary house suddenly becomes an open house with everyone that was so untouchable and locked behind blocked barriers suddenly becoming accessible and approachable.

There can be no doubt that the Ascot Media Group are true shinning stars in the publicist field and relentlessly rely on techniques that most other firms consider too much work. The Ascot Media Group is unstoppable in their conquests for their client’s goals and show kind attention and patience when guiding newcomers through the mysteries of the media world.

I cannot recommend strongly enough the Ascot Media team.

Tom Williams: Scripts columnist, feature article writer, and author of “Lost and Found”

My experience with the Ascot Media Group was excellent. The press release was promptly and collaboratively done and quickly sent, there’s a protocol for responding to review requests, and we had a broad range of interviews — including one from Europe.

In my opinion, Trish Stevens was most professional, as were Ascot’s associates.

Can you hear me applauding?

I used the services of Ascot Media News in 2013 and it was so successful marketing my book on lung cancer that I decided to use them again (2018) for my recent cancer prevention book. I started this recent service less than two months ago and have averaged more than one query a day and have some large opportunities scheduled. One program on cancer in California will be broadcast to 18 states and 37% of the population. Trish, Kimberly, Lin and others are wonderful to work with and always ready to help in any way they can. For me, this is the only way to successfully market a book.

Best thing I did to gain exposure for my business and brand

Ascot Media Group gained me local, regional, national, and international exposure. These exposures resulted in numerous interviews of both radio and TV. Ascot Media Group has been extremely responsive and has generated a lot of interest for my brand. To say I am pleased with them would be a drastic understatement. On a scale of 1 to 5, they are a 6.

Ascot Media was my first foray into PR for promoting my book, and I am very happy with the choice! The Ascot Media team delivered on their promises as I was able to get great exposure for my book through numerous radio interviews, blog posts, and reviews. In addition, the team was a pleasure to work with and very responsive to my questions and supportive of my individual needs. I highly recommend Ascot Media!

Ascot Media, notably with Trish and Kimberly, provides a heavy weight one-two punch for promoting authors. They don’t waste time and improved exposure of my book by 500% as well as found interviews as early as the very day I signed a contract with them. In performing essential publicist tasks for me, their work has helped to propel my book, “Love and Terror in the Middle East” to world class status, through mainstream TV, radio interviews, as well as reviews. That has happened also due to their follow-up promotional efforts, etc. during my world author tours (visiting at least 36 US states, Montreal, Canada, and other regions). They are absolutely relentless in their promotional efforts and are very diligent in returning communications (usually that same day and even the same hour). Finally, Ascot Media has several very reasonable packages, and Trish, its owner, stretches her already very flexible business practices to craft a custom-made package for customers and works with them very, very closely to assure her promotional efforts will be very successful. And they always are!!
