That Day and What Came After by Rebecca DanielsI just completed my third tour (for three different non-fiction books) with Teddy in the past several years. She is a terrific organizer, her hosts are great, reviews are thoughtful and detailed, interviews and guest posts are fun, and the tour got info about me and my books to a much wider audience than I could have done without her help. I highly recommend her services. Rebecca Daniels, author of Keeping the Lights On for Ike, Finding Sisters, and That Day and What Came After

On the Rails by Rosemary and Larry Mild“Aloha, Teddy! A thousand thanks to you for arranging our ON THE RAILS book tour. It was a lot of challenging work, which we delved into wholeheartedly—to be fresh and original and not repeat ourselves. You did a fabulous job of scheduling and balancing the requirements for the interviews and excerpts. And when we got the awful news that one or two reviewers thought our historical references were inaccurate, you guided us through precise responses that documented our correct history. We are also indebted to our publicist, Maryglenn Warnock, for sending us to you!”-Authors Larry & Rosemary Mild, authors of  On the Rails: The Adventures of Boxcar Bertie

Pistol Rose and the Wedding that Sparked a War by Michael Ryan Hahn“It can be a frightening place to try and get your book noticed. The more you research, the more you may find that to be true. But Teddy Rose’s Premier Virtual Author Book Tour is a lantern in that darkest storm, a match that could light a fuse, a keg of dry powder in the flood–if you’re ready for that. She provides a fantastic instrument for you to use: a good beginning. You’ll ultimately get a collection of reviews from people who you’d otherwise never know, that reach readers who you’d otherwise not. You may get to do some interviews, and share excerpts of your book. All scheduled, all laid out with precision to attract the most eyes possible. It’s not a review mill; it’s curated. Teddy is a matchmaker. It’s like a warm handoff and an introduction to an essential part of the publishing world. Authors need reviews like carpenters need referrals. Teddy can get you going. I can’t recommend her tours highly enough.”-Michael Ryan Hahn, Author of Pistol Rose and the Wedding That Sparked a War

Campbell Sisters by Eileen Joyce Donovan“Teddy recently organized a blog tour for my novel, THE CAMPBELL SISTERS. I cannot recommend her enough to anyone who it thinking about a blog tour for their book. She’s professional and follows through with all the bloggers to make sure they have honored their commitment. And she kept me informed every step of the way.
I’ll definitely be in touch with her when I launch my next book.”-Eileen Joyce Donovan, Author of The Campbell Sisters

Charred by G.P.  Gottlieb“What a pleasure to meet Teddy Rose, who organizes book tours, corals reviewers into submitting, and simultaneously placates nervous authors. When a reviewer went ballistic because my latest mystery is set in 2020 during the pandemic, Teddy Rose calmly thanked and dismissed her from reviewing it. These are quality reviews on her tour, and the blogs (that invited guest posts) are top notch as well.

Thank you for making the experience so fun and easy, Teddy Rose! I’ll be back when my next book is ready for publication.”-G.P.  Gottlieb, Author of Charred, Book 3 of the Whipped and Sipped Series

 

Dead Reckoning by Lea O'Harra“I would recommend Teddy Rose’s Premier Virtual Author Book Tour unreservedly. When I enlisted her help to publicise my recently published crime fiction novel Dead Reckoning, I found she far exceeded expectations. Teddy Rose is the soul of professionalism. On our first beginning to work together, she provided me with a tour schedule, a shipping/email list of the paperback or e-books I needed to send to reviewers, and an author task checklist. She always kept me posted on what I needed to do, having every detail of the tour she had arranged at her fingertips and responding promptly and helpfully to all my queries. She kept me meticulously informed about any changes to the schedule, informing me, for example, when a review might be posted later than proposed because of a blogger’s illness. I was also impressed by the variety of reviewers she had corralled to comment on my book and by the thoughtfulness of their remarks. It’s been a pleasure and a privilege to work with Teddy Rose, and I hope to do so again in future.”-Lea O’Harra, author of Dead Reckoning, Imperfect Strangers, Progeny, Lady FirstWebsite: http://leaoharra.com/

Teddy Rose and ‘Premier Virtual Author Book Tours’ proved me wrong by delivering an enviable virtual book tour package. The number of scheduled tour stops, details of the tour activities, and the timeliness of the tour were impressive. The reviews posted on Goodreads and several websites by the tour hosts about SOULFUL RETURN were incisive. The ‘Premier Virtual Author Book Tours’ is the best publicity I have had since the release of my novel SOULFUL RETURN. I am grateful to Teddy Rose and all the tour participants.”-Fidelis O.

She is a real professional and found great sites and reviewers for my book, and responded to questions I had very quickly. I felt like the reviewers really took time to write thoughtful things about my novel, and the reviews and Teddy’s support helped me spread the word about the book. I hope to work with her again in the future. Thank you, Teddy!”-Christopher Tuthill, Author of The Osprey ManWebsite: https://christuthill.wordpress.com/

Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cjtuthill/All the Rivers Flow into the Sea by Khanh Ha“Just like demystifying Chapter One, you can demystify virtual book tour coordinators in your crusade to find a cure for your just launched book.  But there are so many book tour coordinators as there are auto repair services in the Yellow Pages. Coordinators with tunnel vision, then those with lots of baggage.  So, you need a visionary coordinator, like Teddy Rose,  who can shepherd your work to the promised land you have envisioned.How does she do that?By relentlessly pursuing the bloggers, the reviewers to form your cortege, by prodding them along, and then keeping them on time with their reviews and posts. It’s like building one brick at a time until your Mayan Temple is constructed in all of its grandiosity you have imagined.But knowing what and how to orchestrate her task is the difference. And be an author’s caretaker. To be able to help an author is magic. The best coordinator knows how to pacify an author with care and advice. The rest is up to you to enact the magic. Remember: A shrink doesn’t fix you.There are many virtual book tour coordinators. But only a few can make a significant impact on your work. Among these select few—if you are fortunate to find them—is Teddy Rose.”-Khanh Ha, author of Flesh, The Demon Who Peddled Longing, Mrs. Rossi’s Dream, A Mother’s Tale, & All River Flow Into the SeaWebsite: http://www.authorkhanhha.com

It was a great recommendation. Teddy took care of all the nasty details (she is extraordinarily organized) arranging reviewers who would read and then write about my book on their blogs and websites, freeing me up to concentrate on final edits and the next book. And yes, when it’s time, I’ll be reaching out again to Teddy Rose!”-David Kruh, Author of Inseparable: An Alcatraz Escape Adventure.David’s Website: http://https//inseparablealcatraznovel.com/

Evita and Me by Erika RummelI highly recommend Teddy Rose’s blog tours. She is a wonderfully efficient planner and coordinator, and it’s great to have her help in promoting my books. I love writing novels, but hate marketing them. Yet that’s an essential aspect of publishing, especially with a small publisher. Teddy got the word out and helped me find an audience for my novels. I have used her services three times now and currently having her set up a tour for my latest novel, The Loneliness of the Time Traveller.  I will definitely use her services again.”-Erika Rummel, Author of Evita and Me

Time and the Tree by Róisín Sorahan“Teddy Rose is a pleasure to work with. She’s the ultimate professional. Every aspect of the book tour was coordinated seamlessly. I found her insights into the blogger community hugely valuable, and leaned on her honed advice. She’s a pro both at guiding the author, and liaising with tour hosts to maximise the experience for both.”-Róisín Sorahan, Author of Time and The Tree

Finding Sisters by Rebecca Daniels“I just completed my second virtual book tour with Teddy Rose (one in 2020, the other in 2022), both of them godsends during Covid times when in-person author events simply weren’t being booked. Both tours were a terrific experience for me. I enjoyed doing the interviews and guest posts with tour hosts and was delighted when I got a thoughtful and excellent review at each new tour “stop.” Teddy does a great job of keeping things running efficiently, and she always posts each new review on her own social media as well, which helps my efforts to get the books in front of new audiences. At the end of my latest tour, there were almost 1600 readers in the US and Canada who were interested enough in my book to enter the giveaway drawing. Best of all, she’s professional, efficient, enthusiastic, and a pleasure to work with throughout the entire experience of planning and executing each tour. Even when Covid is no longer a deterrent for in-person events, I would recommend a virtual tour with Teddy Rose to get the word out about your new book.”-Rebecca Daniels, Author of Finding Sisters and Keeping the Lights On For Ike

Mockingbird in Mark Twain’s Hat“My virtual book tour was a magnificent success with Teddy Rose and Virtual author tours. Writing the book is really the easy part compared to marketing it, and here you have a partner and a friend who will help you promote it, and grow your readership. As of now, Mockingbird in Mark Twain’s Hat, which was put out through small press Waterside, has exceeded any royalties I’ve had previously, and the tour has supported the story finding its ideal audience. Especially with a children’s book, that’s tough. Here, I have full confidence that working with Teddy was the best possible marketing investment I could have made, and certainly the most heart-warming. She really cares, and it shows. I highly recommend her services.”-Kaia Alexandria, Author of Mockingbird In Mark Twain’s Hat and Written In the Ashes

Child Lost by Michelle Cox“I highly recommend Teddy Rose book tours!! Teddy has a knack of matching your book with the bloggers with whom it will best resonate, and she goes the extra mile for your book. She does a great job following up with bloggers, posting daily on various platforms, commenting, and making sure the author is included in all communications. Do your book a favor and gain tons of followers in the process. You won’t be disappointed!”-Michelle Cox, Author of A Child Lost

Murphy Murphy and the Case of Serious Crisis by Keith Hirshland“It is difficult for an Indie author or new writer to get traction for his or her work. Hundreds of thousands of books are published every year and if you don’t have the name recognition or backing of a major publishing house, getting people to notice your work is challenging.

I have partnered with Teddy Rose and Premier Virtual Author Book Tours on several occasions and thanks to their excellent work my books have been noticed by thousands of readers. I highly recommend this service because Teddy’s outstanding network of book reviewers, book bloggers, and book enthusiasts guarantees that your work will get noticed. There are no guarantees in life but one thing of which you can be sure is that Teddy Rose will work her tail off for you and provide the resources to get your books in front of the best book bloggers in the business.

I am currently working on my fifth book and the one thing I can already say with certainty is that when it’s finished, I’ll get it in the capable hands of Teddy Rose and Premier Virtual Author Book Tours.””- Keith Hirshland, Author of Cover Me Boys I’m Going In, Big Flies, The Flower Girl Murder, and Murphy Murphy and the Case of Serious Crisis

Eden by Jamie Lisa Forbes“Maintaining a presence on social media in order to support the marketing of my books is nearly crushing when I am trying to juggle a “day” job and family.  And  I also want time to write!!  Teddy Rose has been a godsend to me.  Her knowledge of social media and author platforms is extremely.   I don’t have the time to investigate these avenues.  Her posting on my behalf always intuits my interests and my philosophies exactly as if she had sat next to me when I wrote my books.  Her representation of my books is as good, if not better, than what I can do myself.  I am always delighted when I access a post she has done for me and it is a perfect reflection of the landscapes and the ideals that my fiction represents. I also just completed my third virtual book tour and it went well in Teddy’s expert hands! It expanded the readership of my website, sold copies of my new novel, Eden, and also sold more copies of my two previous books as well.  THANK YOU TEDDY!”-Jamie Lisa Forbes, Author of Unbroken, The Widow Smalls, and Eden.

Feast by David Vorhees“I want to thank Premier Virtual Author Book Tours for putting on a wonderful tour. I thoroughly enjoyed it. I know they try to pair a book with reviewers who will enjoy reading it but, as in life, there is no guarantee they all would have liked it but it seems they all did. I consider this tour rousing success. Thank you and thanks to all the reviewers. I hope to work with you again on my future works.”-David Vorhees, Author of The Feast: And Other Horrifying Tales

Mrs. Rossi’s Dream by Khanh Ha“My third virtual book tour with my new novel Mrs. Rossi’s Dream ended on a high note with an added bonus as giveaway that gathered 2357 entries, a record breaking high mark for a single book tour, thanks to Teddy. This was my third book tour with her as my coordinator, which attested to her credentials as one of the top coordinators in the business. Teddy’s system worked almost flawlessly. She kept me informed promptly when things veered to the left; and things that went awry were always corrected without a hitch. I was alerted to news about my book reviews and related news on social networking and other media outlets and platforms. Above all, Teddy is a warm and caring coordinator, and that is who you want to be your ally while you’re on a book tour.”-Khanh Ha, author of Flesh, The Demon Who Peddled Longing, & Mrs. Rossi’s Dream

Water’s Fine: Suspense Novel by Janice Coy“A Premier Virtual Book Tour was recommended to me by a fellow author, and I want to pass that recommendation on to you. I was very happy to have Teddy Rose in my corner on my first virtual blog tour. She was very organized and proved to be a great tour manager putting my book in front of reviewers and bloggers who were interested in my genre. I only had to follow along with her detailed instructions. She stayed on top of every tour stop, providing me with necessary links, blog post advice, and encouragement. It’s nice to know there are people like Teddy Rose who can help authors stand out from the crowd.”-Janice Coy, author of The Water’s Fine

Moon Games by Shelly Frome“I just completed my third tour with Premier Virtual Author Book Tours.  The beautiful thing about entrusting your latest creation to Teddy Rose and her individualized virtual tours is the sense that she’s looking out for you. She’ll advise a reviewer against posting a mixed or negative review if the reviewer didn’t read the entire book.  By the same token, she’ll keep your spirits up by underscoring the value of certain highly positive responses. In short, she’s not just monitoring her schedules as efficiently as possible. She understands what it takes to pour your heart and soul into a project and have it sent out there into the blue.”Shelly Frome, Author of Moon Games, Secluded Village Murders, and Murder Run

Prophetic Mayan Queen: K'inuuw Mat of Palenque by Leonide Martin“In February 2019 my month-long Virtual Author Book Tour organized by Teddy Rose was launched. It was extremely well-organized, from the preparatory materials I was asked to submit through the scheduled blog appearances. Teddy checked each blog, making sure my book and material were up, and taking action if needed. She gave me live links to each blog, so I could visit and comment as soon as my book appeared. Preparing the materials for bloggers was fun and interesting, leading to engaging guest interviews or posts, a YouTube interview, and several great reviews. I’d had very little experience doing blog tours, and Teddy guided me through with kindness and expertise. Bottom line: these blog appearances led to spikes in book sales on Amazon, with my book reaching the 100’s ranks for both print and Kindle. I highly recommend working with Teddy for an outstanding VBT experience.”-Leonide Martin, Author of The Prophetic Mayan Queen

“I came to know Teddy Rose and her Virtual Author Book Tours as a result of a recommendation from another Australian author. Let me say right off, that Teddy exceeded all my expectations. Her work ethic is formidable, her approach honest, ethical, and highly professional. She is very personable (nothing is too much to ask, and there are no stupid questions.) Teddy has been a pleasure to do business with. Her talent at matching my book, Fractured Prophecy, to bloggers was spot on. The reviews I received were all positive, to the point, and I’m sure will help sell many copies of Fractured Prophecy in the future.
I highly recommend Teddy to any author looking to increase awareness for themselves and their products among their target audience”.  PJ McDermott

House Always Wins: Vegas Ghost Story by Brian Rouff“Thinking about a blog tour? You could do it yourself, spend a ton of time doing research, contact potential bloggers and interviewers personally, try to convince them to read/promote your book, and come up empty-handed. Or you could contact Teddy Rose and let her do it for you. Teddy has all the connections in place to quickly get you a bunch of professional reviews and other publicity on legit websites. She did it for me for an extremely reasonable fee, and a simple Google search proves how effective it was. I’ve used Teddy’s services more than once and couldn’t be happier. She delivers.”Brian Rouff, author of “The House Always Wins,” “Money Shot” and “Dice Angel”

Fire Priest (Pawn of the Gods, Book 1) by Stephen Murdoch“I recommend Teddy Rose and Virtual Author Book Tours highly. Hundreds of thousands of traditionally and independently published books come out every year. Publishing is a remarkably noisy space, so getting reviews is difficult for the vast majority of authors. That’s where Teddy and her contacts come in. I had just two reviews for my first novel, ‘The Fire Priest’, before I signed up with Teddy. Now I have almost 20 on various sites, and all of them independent, not paid for, and positive. Those reviews are very important building blocks for an indie marketing campaign. Teddy is a delight to work with. She responds to emails promptly and professionally. She delivers on the services she promises. Five stars for Teddy!”-Stephen Murdoch, Author of The Fire Priest

Secrets Abound Missing Lake by Tanya Fyfe“As a fairly new writer I had never heard of a book tour until I connected with Teddy Rose. She patiently explained the process and answered all of my questions in a very timely manner. I was pleased with her professionalism from the start and also her personable and friendly nature. We were able to put together a fun, positive, 10-stop tour. I still wasn’t really sure what to expect when the tour began but everything fell right into place as Teddy had explained it would and away we went! I have had to explain to my own network about how the tours work, likening it to a band on a concert tour only in this case, the tour stops are virtual. Just like a new city, each tour stop is unique with its own style and way of presenting and discussing my book. Through this tour I have learned a lot more about social media (I’m trying to remember to Tweet, honest!) and better marketing and promotion, which is largely thanks to Teddy Rose. I will definitely do another tour with her when I write my next book and I have already recommended her very affordable services to other writers learning about marketing themselves.”-Tanya Fyfe, Author of Secrets Abound Missing Lake

Chords of War by Christopher Meeks and Sam Gonzalez Jr.“For the modern author comes something called “the blog tour.” It’s a string of websites that rally around your new book. Day after business day, one website or another focuses on your book, and this can go on, ideally, for two weeks or more.

Managing such a thing is difficult, yet this is where Teddy Rose excels. She works with a number of reviewers and gets people to commit to either reviewing a book, interviewing the author, running a guest blog from the author, or otherwise mentioning the new book. Thus, when someone does a search on an author or looks for a review of the new book, a lot comes up.

I have come to admire the quality and insight from some of these reviewers, and I’d never be able to put together so much the way Teddy Rose does. I’ve used other, less expensive tour coordinators, but Teddy brings much more to the table. She’s extremely organized and follows through on everything. I recommend her with enthusiasm.

Teddy, Thank you for the high-quality reviewers I had this time. Maybe the book brought them out in part, but you certainly have gathered a talented bunch. I will certainly work with you again. You’re the one sure cog I have in marketing. I still love your service and will keep coming back!” Christopher Meeks, author of The Chords of War,  A Death in Vegas, Blood Drama, and other novels.

Remembrance Of Things Present: Making Peace With Dementia by Peter Maeck“Careful research led me to choose Teddy Rose’s Virtual Author Book Tours for my book ‘Remembrance of Things Present: Making Peace with Dementia.’

Teddy’s responsiveness, keen insights, and attention to detail garnered sensitive, perceptive reviews for the book. Her efforts on my behalf have contributed significantly to my overall marketing program. She is a pleasure to work with on both professional and personal levels.”-Peter Maeck, Author of Remembrance of Things Present: Making Peace with Dementia

Blue Hour by Vicki Righettini“The moment I contacted Teddy I knew I’d come to the right person. Not only was she enthusiastic about my book, within days she’d lined up a 15-blog tour for me. There’s no way I’d have that kind of knowledge and access on my own. Every blogger was a good fit for the book’s content, and I was blown away by the overwhelmingly positive reviews. It was amazing watching the 5-star reviews pile up on Amazon.

As with all tours, there were a few detours, but Teddy dealt with every surprise swiftly, and the tour went smoothly. Along the way, she was quick to answer my questions and address my concerns. She was tireless in her efforts, making sure every review, interview, guest post, and giveaway immediately appeared on multiple social media sites. The 2 month tour was expertly and professionally managed, and I felt I was in good hands from beginning to end.

As an extra perk, it was a pleasure getting to know Teddy during the course of the tour. She’s warm and encouraging, and a delight to work with. Her love of books – and those of us who are crazy enough to write them – comes through in everything she does. I can’t recommend her highly enough.”-Vicki Righettini, Author of The Blue Hour

Play For Me by Céline Keating“A writer who had worked with Teddy Rose, recommended her for a blog tour. Teddy went out of her way to find bloggers who would be a good fit. In all things Teddy was thoroughly professional, supremely well-organized, super conscientious and very courteous.

She presented me with a good mix of bloggers for reviews, interviews, guest posts, and giveaways, posted frequently on social media sites, and kept on top of everything. Teddy went well beyond my expectations, especially for her reasonable fees.

I felt that Teddy truly cared about my tour’s success and went above and beyond to help me reach my goals. I was extremely pleased with the results, gaining many excellent reviews on Amazon and Goodreads, as well as great exposure. I very highly recommend Teddy’s services for anyone thinking of doing a tour.”-Céline Keating, Author of Play For Me

Munich Girl by Phyllis Edgerly Ring“My novel’s blog tour with Teddy Rose was one of the most positive experiences I’ve had in sharing my work.

Teddy is phenomenally well-organized and applies real initiative and wisdom in making each tour stop effective. I appreciated that the tour included book bloggers in both the U.S. and Canada. Teddy also amplified my book’s visibility through adept and focused use of social media.

Over a span of 12 weeks, 8 of which covered the tour, Teddy maintained highly responsive communication both with me, and with the bloggers. I highly recommend her tours.”-Phyllis Edgerly Ring, Author of The Munich Girl

Healing of Howard Brown by Jeb Stewart Harrison“Working with Teddy is a real pleasure. As a self-published fiction author, I’m not so good at handling all the marketing details, partially because I just don’t like doing it. With Teddy, I simply had to follow her directions, and the whole tour went off without a hitch. Her reviewers were thorough, fair, and enthusiastic. I suspect I never would have gotten so many reviews without Teddy’s help. I look forward to working with Teddy on my next release. Highest recommendation, and, of course, five stars!”-Jeb Stewart Harrison, Author of ‘The Healing Of Howard Brown

Minger`s Tale by R.B.N. Bookmark“I had never embarked on a book tour, whether it be virtual or in real life.
So it was purely by chance that I came across Virtual Author Book Tours.
Teddy Rose was great, she guided me through the complex (for me anyway) world of book reviews and the do`s and don`ts.  The 10 blog book campaign she organised on my behalf was well thought out and professionally executed. I felt throughout the book tour I had Teddy`s help and support if ever I was in doubt about anything or just needed help.
I am very happy with the results and I sincerely hope Teddy continues with her fantastic work in giving selfpublished authors an opportunity to connect with bloggers and readers where ever they may be.”-RBN Bookmark, Author of A Minger`s Tale

Written In the Ashes by K. Hollan Van Zandt“Thank you so much, Teddy, for putting together yet another brilliant tour! A blog tour is something I would not encourage any author to undertake without your expert guiding hand and professional coordination. You get five stars from me! My publisher was impressed with my effort, and the sales have shown it. Thank you. I highly recommend your services.”- K. Hollan Van Zandt, Author of Written in the Ashes

White Lies by Susan Barrett“Dear Teddy,
Thank you for being such a efficient and caring host for my tour.  You were a constant and reassuring companion at my elbow, and helped me learn how to use social media and my website more effectively.  I was pleased with the number and quality of the reviews I received.  I enjoyed responding to questions.  Best of all, the video interview with Michelle kicked off the tour to a great start.”-Susan Barrett, Author of White Lies

My Grandfathers Pants by Tegon Maus“Are you a writer?  I am… tough isn’t it?  Oh, the writing part is more than okay but once you finish…  then, then unthinkable. Now you have to sell it and that means it all boils down to you!  I’ve done everything to engage in Social Media and you know what?  I suck at it… big time.  So I did what any brilliant writer does, I hired someone that does it FAR better than me. Enter Teddy Rose!  I tried for six months to get a few You-Tube reviews for my books. I sent out dozens and dozens of them without so much as a single flicker of interest. Once I signed up for Teddy’s You-Tube Service I had five very cool You-Tube reviews for my book in no time at all! I can’t tell you how happy I am with her service!  The price was right, the reviews were great and it all happened so fast that I will defiantly do it again! So if you suck at it like I suck at it then you need Teddy Rose to make you a brilliant writer too!!”-Tegan Maus, Author of My Grandfather’s Pants

Lost Diaries of Elizabeth Cady Stanton by Sarah Bates“Teddy Rose who operates Virtual Author Book Tours, delivers in more ways than I expected. Not only does she have the insider expertise I needed to reach historical fiction book bloggers, she chose individuals who were interested in the specific era and characters in my novel. She worked tirelessly on my behalf, being thorough and detailed, giving me tasks to perform and a timely schedule in which to do them–including gentle reminders! Teddy was cheerful and creative, always with reaching my readers in mind. I will defiantly use her service again.”-Sarah Bates, Author of The Lost Diaries of Elizabeth Cady Stanton

Zeena Nackerdien“I was not quite sure what to expect on my journey as a scientist/patient advocate-turned author. However, Teddy gave great support throughout the tour. After languishing unnoticed on the Amazon digital shelves, she amplified my voice through several blogs and made helpful suggestions to improve my author journey. Teddy’s thorough follow-ups and readiness to adapt at a moment’s notice ensured a successful tour. Thank you for lifting me out of the social media doldrums and into the spotlight. Here’s to many more virtual book tours.”-Zeena Nackerdien, Author of The Heroine Next Door

Monday, Sunday“Teddy Rose and her team did a fantastic job putting the book tour together for my novel, ‘Monday, Sunday.’ Since I had never done a book tour, I didn’t know quite what to expect. Teddy was there every step of the way, explaining the process, clearly outlining the schedule and expectations at every point. She exceeded my expectations by putting together tour stops with bloggers who specialized in my genre. I was impressed by the quality of the bloggers who clearly had put time and thought into reading my novel, asking specific questions and offering their opinions. My favorite part was the interviews that were conducted. Such challenging and intriguing questions!  I’m grateful that Teddy took the time to connect me with these talented readers and bloggers.
I’d highly recommend Teddy’s services for anyone thinking of doing a tour. Not only is she the consummate professional, but I came to know her personally as well, and she is a kind, caring person whose thoughtfulness, wit, and insight show in everything she does.”-Fenton Grace, Author of Monday,Sunday

NR Bates“As a debut novelist my experience with a virtual book tour has been highly successful. Teddy is a delight to work with…she is very knowledgeable and wonderfully helpful during the coordination of the book tour (e.g., pre-tour preparations, reviews, interviews and posts, social media communications and giveaways). The purpose of my book tour was focused on improving new author exposure and visibility, and it achieved more than I expected. The highlight…Teddy was a gem to find. I highly recommend Premier Virtual Book Tours and I look forward to Teddy hosting my next books on future tours.” NR Bates, Author of At the Sharp End of Lightning.

Tegon MausI have had my share of book tours, interviews, radio spots, newspaper articles, public appearances and everything that lies in between when it comes to talking about my books. Everyone is tired of hearing yet again about my wonderful books. Friends pretend to not be home when I come to call… Jehovah Witnesses cross the street in an effort to avoid me.

If you find yourself in this situation I highly recommend you contact Teddy Rose. Her service brought me fame and fortune… okay so you don’t know who I am so maybe not fame but with everything I’ve sold before her help I had no need to remove my shoes. After my last tour under her tutelage I sold hundreds of books !  This is no idle brag… my sales have never been what one might call robust but with Teddy Rose to help me on this last tour I literally saw my sales jump into the hundreds and hundreds.

Teddy is tenacious in her representation of my work and tireless in her efforts to promote me. She is an unstoppable engine of experience, a friend, and mentor.  She has gone to extraordinary lengths to accomplish this for me as well as those that seek her service. I cannot recommend her more highly or thank her deeply enough.

I still can’t see my friends and relatives… but the Jehovah Witnesses have started to come around again!”Tegon Maus, Author of Service Before Self and Bob

Teddy Rose follows up on everything so that the author receives the tour he or she expects. I highly recommend Virtual Author Tours and look forward to contracting with the company on my next book.“-NLB Horton, author of best-selling Kindle book When Camels Fly, and top 100 sub-genre book The Brothers’ Keepers.

I Stand Corrected New Cover

“I was searching online for tools to market my first novel in English and I found Virtual Author Book Tours. I had no idea what a virtual tour would do for the book but after reading the testimonials, I signed up for it. I have to commend Teddy for the way she has everything so organized and is on top of schedules being met. She also offered valuable advice and encouragement. I would definitely use her services again as I feel that I got a lot of positive feedback for my novel and I think this is very important for an emerging author. PATRI “LA TRANQUI”.- Patricia Asedegbega, author of ‘I Stand Corrected.

 
“An author needs eyes on their book and reviews to draw in more readers. We all know how difficult it can be beyond family, friends coworkers and social networking. Sometimes all your efforts bring zero results. Teddy Rose has put together an amazing experience for authors with Virtual Author Book Tours.
Teddy Rose is a whirlwind of a tour operator. She takes control quickly, lines up the bloggers, keeps everyone on track for their tour dates, and she coached me as to what I needed to do and provide. Teddy picked the very best when she chose these bloggers. I enjoyed the interviews and question and answer sessions. It was a lot of fun reading questions and providing answers.
 
If you’re still working the day job (or not), or just don’t have the funds it can be difficult to have book signings across the country. With Teddy Rose’s Virtual Author Book Tours you get the best of both worlds: book reviews from bloggers while you sit in front of your computer! How could that get better? This is my second book tour with Teddy and once again, it went off without a hitch. I love it when new readers discover my work, especially bloggers — they expand your audience exponentially  with their reviews.
I highly recommend Premier and Teddy Rose. It’s all about personal service and heart. Teddy has all of that and more.” – Dawn Greenfield Ireland, author of Hot Chocolate Bitter Chocolate

“It is my pleasure to recommend Teddy Rose and the services of Premier Virtual Author Book Tours. From my first contact to the recap email, Teddy was professional, organized, and always on top of each stop on the book blog tour. 

In the process of my book’s tour, we encountered two hosts that had extenuating circumstances are were unable to post reviews/giveaways on the pre-set date. Before the end of the day, Teddy had contacted the hosts, made alternate arrangements and had addressed the issue. All I had to do was sit back and watch Teddy work! After all the thought, planning, and stress involved in writing the novel, the book blog tour with Teddy was a breeze! 

I also found Teddy’s pricing to be fair and a solid investment for the amount of exposure my novel received. I highly recommend her services and plan to use them again.”- Stacy Overman Morrison, Author of Comfort of Fences

“My virtual book tour was very well organised and fun to be part of as different bloggers across multiple genres read, reviewed and shared their opinions about my book. As a new author I gained many valuable reviews from respected reviewers across multiple countries, who actively used social media to share their opinions.

My book gained valuable reviews on Amazon and my guest posts were very well received, resulting in increased traffic to my webpage. In all, it was a great way for me to interact and share my story and I would like to thank Teddy and her amazing network of bloggers for all their help.”Allistair McGuinness, Author of Round the Bend

“I have used several book tour companies, and Teddy Rose’s Premiere Virtual Author Book Tours is by far the most professionally run and organized. Teddy is a pleasure to work with, and she is on top of every single detail. If you are an author and want to get out word about your book, I highly recommend Teddy’s book tour services. I will be using her services again, and again, and again…

In fact, I was planning on doing another tour for books two and three of my Loving Husband Trilogy.”Meredith Allard, Author of Her Dear and Loving Husband

“I thought the book tour was great. I couldn’t believe the positive response overall to my novel! It was incredible to have strangers who did not know my area or much about me or the story to enjoy it so. It reinforced something in me as a writer — that I can do it. I don’t always know but as I often say the proof is in the pudding. If people enjoy the story, it is that much closer to being a ‘real writer’ and that was my hope for the book tour.

I think the exposure has been very good. I look at the bloggers followers — have many, plus the additional comments on Goodreads and Amazon.

I think this is better than a book signing tour. Those days are probably disappearing for authors in general as social media dominants. It is an honest medium. 

I think you did a professional job, you were on top of everything and you steadily used social media. I appreciate that you will continue to do so as there are other possible reviews. It has been wonderful to work with you.”Kimberly Young, Author of The Eight Wonder

“I can only rave about how great it was to work with Teddy on my blog tour. I really appreciated how organized she is and how much easier she made the entire process for me. I also know that a lot of people will not review self-pubbed titles. Working with Teddy gave me an “in” on a lot of blog sites that otherwise would not have looked twice at my book. I definitely plan to work with Teddy on future blog tours.”Camille Picott, author of Sulan.

 

“Being part of “Virtual Author Book Tours” was the best decision I made as an author and book marketer.  I had no idea what to expect — I just knew that I had a wonderful book and it needed exposure.  Teddy Rose supplied that— and so much more.  From the very beginning, she guided me through the process (since this was my first virtual tour) and helped me every step of the way.  I got 41 online reviews — and thousands of hits.  I have a new book coming out — and, believe me, I am going to use her skills again.  She is absolutely terrific.”Jeff Johnson, author of Things Your Dog Doesn’t Want You To Know.

“I have to tell you I was very pleased with Premier Virtual Author Book Tour.  Unlike another internet ad campaign I had used, this one did a better job of promoting the most important piece of information  about my book, which is the award.

“Okay so The Raie’Chaelia blog tour ended on September 1st and I have to say that the month of August during this tour has been so much fun!  I loved reading the reviews of bloggers who took the time to read the novel and comment on it.  Not only were these reviews extremely helpful in getting the word out about my book, they were also very constructive, teaching me about my writing habits and what I may want to fine tune as I write the second book of the trilogy.

The blog tour itself was a complete success!  I highly recommend, for both publishers and indie authors, to seek the services of Teddy Rose’ Premier Virtual Author Blog Tours!  Before the tour started, I had maybe one or two sales during the first two months the book was live. 

The fact of the matter is, it’s hard when you are first starting out and no one knows you.  It takes time and work to build an author platform and the more help you can get from friends, family, and colleagues, the better.  So during the month of August, the blog tour really helped … a lot.  Not only did I see a jump in sales, I had over 200 people contact me through my website, asking if they could review my book as well, which of course I happily let them and am still receiving reviews from these readers. 


Overall, though, this month of August was great!  I am so looking forward to finishing the next two books of the trilogy and to starting their subsequent blog tours.“-Melissa Douthit, author of Raie’Chaelia

“Hi Teddy,
 
With the blog tour at an end, I wanted to express my thanks to you for your skill and efficiency at putting the tour together.  India Black had been on the shelves for ten weeks when we started the tour, and it was the perfect time to get some fresh coverage for the book on new blogs.  I’m particularly pleased with the blogs you selected to host the tour.  While each of the bloggers have an interest in a specific genre, all are well-read across a variety of genres and were receptive to the historical fiction/mystery/romp with elements of romance which is India Black. 
 
I was pleased, too, with the large number of followers of these blogs, ensuring that India got exposure to new readers.  The bloggers did a wonderful job of asking interesting questions or proposing interesting topics for guest blogs, which gave me the opportunity to share my views of the historical era and India’s character.  As one of those obsessive types who value organization, calendars, and to-do lists, I was thrilled at how rapidly you put together the tour and the schedule of posts you provided me, along with a list of special topics each blogger wanted to cover.  In short, I couldn’t be happier with the way things turned out, and I would not hesitate either to use your services again or to recommend you to other writers considering a blog tour.”Caral Carr, author of India Black
