How to Promote Your Book on Radio
Looking to break into radio and promote your book on the air for free? Here's how.
Radio offers an excellent way for authors to create buzz about themselves and their books. A radio station can reach over 100,000 listeners. With Internet radio and podcasts, interested listeners and book buyers can find your interview online, download it to their iPod and listen 24/7, anywhere in the world.
The Federal Communications Commission reported that there were 13,500 licensed broadcast stations. With Internet Radio, this number could be double or triple.
You can make an international radio tour from your home or office and reach tens of thousands of listeners that could buy your book. The key is to find the radio shows whose listeners are interested in your topic.
One place to start is your local phonebook yellow pages. Find the local radio stations in your area. They typically love to feature local authors as a guest. Next, visit blogtalk radio to find more genre-specific shows.
