Authors In Media:  Marketing Your Book and Message in Media

Mary will be sharing her unique Media I.M.P.A.C.T. Method™ which lays out her strategic step-by-step approach to marketing a nonfiction book successfully in traditional Media.

This webinar will be presented by Authors in Media founder, Mary O'Dohonue.

With 12 seasons on The Oprah Winfrey Show, as a Post Producer and Associate Director, plus years on NBC Nightly News, The Today Show, and Meet the Press, and stints in local TV news and radio, Mary is the definition of a Media Insider.

But her decades of experience in media haven’t all been behind the scenes. Mary is also a bestselling author and parenting expert who has been featured in television, radio, print and online interviews. In fact, a single media interview catapulted Mary’s book When You Say Thank You, Mean It to bestseller status on Amazon in 12 hours, not only becoming #1 in Parenting but also breaking into the top 100 overall out of millions of books.

That’s right – one strategic media interview can turn your book into a bestseller.

As a media insider and bestselling author, Mary is uniquely qualified to teach you how to become the “go-to” expert in Media – and you don’t have to hire a publicist.

Please note – Mary works primarily with NONFICTION authors and the event will be geared to that. Fiction authors may take some great points from this, especially if you have a theme or relevant topics that you can discuss in the media – outside of the fact that you've published a book.

Sponsor Spotlight: Authors in Media

Sponsor Spotlight: Authors in Media

by | Mar 2, 2021

One moment in the media spotlight can make all the difference for nonfiction authors. It can take you from being a first-time author to a sought-after expert if the media spotlight is positioned just right. And with all that attention, your book sales are bound to get a big bump!

The real question is, HOW? Most authors have no idea how to harness that power to expand their audience, boost their credibility, and actually move the needle on book sales. Without extensive – and expensive – media training to get those insider secrets about how to take it to the next level, the moment can pass the average author by.

It’s situations like this that make me so grateful that I met Mary O'Donohue, from Authors in Media. She’s an expert who can help authors transform their careers through great publicity, and she’s sponsoring the 2021 Women in Publishing Summit. We are super-excited to hear her exclusive insights at the Summit and beyond!

Who is Authors in Media?

How did she get the inside info to propel authors to center stage? Mary was a producer for THE OPRAH WINFREY SHOW for 12 years. She’s also a best-selling author herself and helps authors use traditional media to increase their influence, impact, and income. As a best-selling author herself, she knows the importance of using the power of media to promote your book and your message.

While media exposure is great for any author, it’s especially helpful for nonfiction authors. The media landscape can be confusing and complicated, and it’s full of traditional gatekeepers, putting indie authors and new writers at a particular disadvantage.That’s where Mary comes in. She has access to behind-the-scenes secrets and insider tips on how to pitch your work, present yourself to each different media source, and how to work with them once you’re booked to ensure you get asked back. Knowing the rules of the game makes all the difference when you’re pursuing traditional media, and that’s exactly how Authors in Media has helped so many writers grow their careers.

Why We Love Authors in Media

We’re excited to welcome Mary of Authors in Media as a sponsor of this year’s summit. Media can be an essential tool for any author, especially nonfiction writers. A lot of experts focus on social media and what it can do for you. And sure, social media is the shiny new object. But Mary takes a step back and shares how traditional media can help propel your book forward – if you know how to use it. Our interview with Mary was exciting — we talked for over an hour about authors and media opportunities. She really gave me a TON of awesome strategies to share with my clients, and I know she’s going to get you all thinking, too. The interview will be available during the Women in Publishing Summit and it’s one you don’t want to miss. Mary and her company has been a great asset to our sponsor lineup this year and we can’t wait to share the interview!
