About Literally Public Relations Ltd

Literally Public Relations Ltd, commonly known as LitPR, is a specialist public relations agency based in Ashford, United Kingdom, that focuses exclusively on the book and publishing industry. Founded in 2012, the agency has built a strong reputation for helping authors—particularly self-published and indie authors—navigate the complex world of media engagement and book promotion. Over the past decade, the team at Literally Public Relations Ltd has managed more than 400 campaigns, covering everything from horror and cookery to YA fiction and self-help.

Services and Specialties

Literally Public Relations Ltd offers a focused suite of services tailored to the publishing sector. The agency's core offering revolves around media relations and publicity for books, authors, and literary events. Their expertise includes:

  • Book tour planning and execution (virtual and in-person)
  • Media pitching and press release distribution
  • Author brand building and personal branding
  • Book review tours and securing reviews in relevant outlets
  • Media outreach for book launches and campaigns
  • Consulting on book marketing strategies
  • Direct-to-consumer (D2C) marketing support
  • Media and communications training for authors

While many PR agencies offer general services, Literally Public Relations Ltd has carved out a niche in literary publicity, drawing on the founder's background as an NCTJ-qualified journalist and a Fellow of the Chartered Institute of Marketing. This combination of journalistic insight and marketing expertise allows the team to craft pitches that resonate with editors and producers.

Who They Help

The agency primarily works with authors, from debut novelists to established writers, as well as publishers and literary organisations. Their client base includes a significant number of indie authors who require support in building visibility without the backing of a traditional publishing house. Literally Public Relations Ltd also serves self-published writers looking to break into mainstream media, offering services like media contacts lists and strategic advice on timing and messaging. The team's experience spans genres and formats, including print books, ebooks, and audiobooks, reflecting the changes in the publishing landscape over the last decade.

Approach and Philosophy

Literally Public Relations Ltd takes a hands-on, creative approach to each campaign. The agency's team brings together more than 100 years of combined experience in journalism, marketing, and PR. They emphasise the importance of understanding the author's voice and the book's core themes before developing a tailored outreach plan. Rather than relying on mass mailouts, the team focuses on building relationships with relevant journalists, bloggers, and influencers in the literary space. This method has helped the agency maintain a steady track record of securing coverage for clients across a wide range of media outlets.

The agency also adapts to industry trends. Since its founding in 2012, Literally Public Relations Ltd has navigated the rise of indie publishing, the growth of audiobooks, and the challenges of the global pandemic, which shifted many book tours and events online. This adaptability is a key part of their service offering, ensuring authors can reach their audiences regardless of external circumstances.
