Bittersweet Book Tours

What is a Virtual book Tour?

They're also called blog tours but we offer promotional opportunities on more than just blogs. We offer contacts and scheduling on  podcasts, social media outlets, YouTube channels, interviews, guest posts, highlights, you name it! 

Let's Chat

Schedule a meeting with me

When I was launching my books, I would have loved some support through that crazy and exciting time.  We can tailor your virtual book tour to your needs, your audience, and your schedule.  Don't feel comfortable on video? We'll skip YouTube. Don't know what to write an article about? We'll schedule you some Q&A interviews. My contacts and I are here to help with whatever virtual promotion you and your book need. They need content and you need people talking about your book!

Save time and generate a buzz by having me arrange a ton of virtual promotions.

What To Expect

First, email me so we can have a chat over Zoom about how and when you'd like to proceed. You can tell me your preferences and what size promo you'd like. Then, I will toil behind the scenes to line up appearances for you and your book while you take care of the million other things you need to do before a book launch. While I schedule I may send you homework like interviews to fill out and guest posts for you to write and return to certain contacts. When I'm done we'll meet again and I will walk you through a spreadsheet of the schedule, each promotional opportunity, and contacts. After that,  I will stay close in case you have any questions or if something goes wrong, but you won't need me as a middle man getting in the way, so you will communicate directly with the hosts and content creators. But you can always email me and I can hold your hand through the scary parts if you need me.

Start early

I've scheduled book tours as little as two weeks away, but the earlier we start the better.  Some blogs and Facebook groups are scheduling six months out! Even if you don't have your release day, maybe just the month, email me and we can get started.

Frequently Asked Questions

Please reach us at bittersweetbooktours@gmail.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.

They're also called blog tours but we offer promotional opportunities on more than just blogs. We offer contacts and scheduling on  podcasts, social media outlets, YouTube channels, interviews, guest posts, highlights, you name it! 


Absolutely! If you have the time and no money to invest in your book, definitely DIY. I'm really offering to save you time, to take away a huge chunk of your stress, and to give you special access to my contacts that I have gathered and cultivated relationships with. I'm quite the DIYer myself, but in this case it helps to specialize because I have done this a lot, know people, and have a system down.


No way! Traditionally, authors arrange book tours before, during, and immediately after their book launches, but they don't have to. I believe in marketing to drive sales anytime! A concentrated time with lots of author appearances can help your career at anytime, but especially around a holiday that correlates with your book, the book launch, the re-release, to celebrate a new cover, or anytime you see your sales dip.


We have the full-sized tour for $150, but unlike other book tour companies, we also offer smaller packages for $75 and $35 in case you don't have the capital or if you want to try us out with less commitment.
