What Our Clients Have to Say…

"...I've really enjoyed working with you these past 2 months. Your encouraging comments and always funny upbeat personality has been the highlight of each and every day we prepared for this tour. I'll be sad when it's all over. :( I highly recommend you to any author looking for an online publicist."
--Victoria Simcox, author of THE MAGIC WARBLE

"The "good press" about you is no lie! I'm very happy about the mention in the Chicago Sun Times! Yay!"
--Joanne Sundell, author of MEGGIE'S REMAINS

"The world of publishing has changed so dramatically that it’s imperative to go where people are reading and talking about books and buying them – which is online. Dorothy Thompson came highly recommended and she has been great!"
--Gary Morgenstein, author of JESSE'S GIRL

"This tour has been wonderful as was the first – I hope you are booked solid for August. Your presentational data is so well done and professionally presented – you truly represent us so individually and in the best light. I hope all of your clients really understand and appreciate what you provide and what it takes to bring it all together. You personalize each person (client) and really extend yourself in every way. And you are so honest and basically very up-front in fulfilling all of your activities. As I always say, “You are such a sweetheart!”"
--Angus Munro, author of FULL HOUSE - BUT EMPTY

"This has been a wonderful experience. Dorothy Thompson and her whole team are very committed to each author, take each author’s tour very seriously, and work towards maximum exposure in the right places. This is the best book promotion expenditure I’ve made in terms of return on investment. I highly recommend Pump Up Your Book Promotion.
--Phyllis Zimbler Miller, author of MRS: LIEUTENANT

"This past month has been just amazing. Thank you so much for all you did to get the word out there…I loved your emails, always sprinkled with good humor and good sense…
I look forward to VBTing with you again in October for Breast Cancer Awareness month."
My best,
--Linda Merlino, author of BELLY OF THE WHALE

"The tour’s going really well – my amazon book sales are up and the blog postings are storming up the google search pages..."
--Gabriella Goddard, author of GULP!

"I have found my virtual book tour experience to be thought provoking and illuminating. It has made me think my book and my writing in much more thoughtful manner. I truly believe that virtual book tours help writers and inform readers, and I know that I will be doing one for all of my future novels."
--Bernadette Steele, author of THE POETRY OF MURDER

"(The tour)...was 10 times harder than writing the book. Would I do it again? Sure. It was challenging but it was fun."
--Tony Robles, author of JOEY GONZALEZ, GREAT AMERICAN

"My publisher just told me that JANEOLOGY is going back for a second printing. That means sales are going strong! I’m sure much of this has to do with my blog tour. Woo hoo! I’m having fun and I guess you can’t ask for more than that!"
--Karen Harrington, author of JANEOLOGY

“I am really enjoying my experience with Pump Up Your Book Promotion. The people are wonderful to work with, and my name and my book title – well they are popping up everywhere on the web.”
–HBF Teacher, NO TEACHERS LEFT BEHIND
