PR & Speaking Engagement Outreach
Budget: $30 – $250 USD
My four recently released titles—covering Yoga philosophy, the Mahabharata, the Ramayana, and selected hymns of the Veda—need to reach audiences in the very places where thoughtful readers gather. The single most important outcome for this campaign is to secure speaking engagements: keynote slots at literary festivals, university departments, yoga conferences, cultural centres, corporate wellness events—any forum where long-form conversation is welcome.
To make that happen, I need a public-relations partner who can:
• Craft a concise press-kit that positions me as both scholar and engaging storyteller.
• Identify and contact decision-makers at relevant venues, then follow through until firm dates are on the calendar.
• Build a complementary social-media presence, using YouTube as the primary channel for trailers, lecture excerpts, and live Q&A sessions; feel free to suggest cross-posting to other platforms if it strengthens outreach.
• Coordinate the logistics—briefing notes, promotional copy, and media assets—for each confirmed talk so hosts can market the event with minimal effort.
Acceptance criteria
1. A vetted list of at least 40 targeted venues with contact status indicated.
2. A minimum of 10 confirmed speaking engagements (virtual or in-person) scheduled within the next six months.
3. A YouTube content calendar and three finished video assets ready for publication.
4. A press-kit (PDF + editable files) including bio, book synopses, high-resolution covers, and sample interview questions.
If your network and media instincts can translate the depth of these texts into memorable public events, let’s set the plan in motion.
