OTRPR announces innovative partnership with UK publicity firm, Literally PR
New York, NY (July 20, 2015) — Over the River Public Relations has been working on a collaborative and innovative partnership with a like-minded book publicity firm in the UK. Our aim is to provide authors a reliable and effective extension of the successful promotional campaigns OTRPR offers in the US. To that end, we are pleased to announce our partnership with Literally Public Relations Limited, a public relations company that offers a refreshingly different, creative and competitively priced approach to securing you and your books the attention they deserve.
“We aim to support authors, publishers, writers, brand owners, consumer goods businesses, chefs and technology companies of all shapes and sizes as they share their unique story with their perfect target audience. We achieve this not just through excellent and innovative PR strategies that have been tried and tested by our team over many years; we consider the entire process. We look at the role of the client/face of the company, the personality of the book/brand and the story behind the story. We assist with brand creation, profile development and, if required, we build a name for our clients as respected authors with a voice to be heard.”
