Can A Book Tour Be As Close As Your Phone?

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) January 25, 2006 --

Book tour promotions have a new look. It's no longer just TV, radio and print interviews. The reach of the Internet has enabled authors to connect more directly to readers. Virtual book tours are emerging as one of the newest trends in book promotion. This allows authors to promote their latest books not only in a set number of cities but internationally. Futuristic author Regan Black has joined the ranks of best selling authors with her 'Invasion of Justice' virtual tour. Authors such as Mark Victor Hansen 'Chicken Soup for the Soul' series, Dr. Wayne Dyer 'Inspiration', Dr. Stephen Covey 'The 8th Habit', Mireille Guiliano 'French Women Don't Get Fat' and Frank McKinney 'Make it Big!' have all recently used virtual book tours to promote their books.

'Invasion of Justice' author Regan Black described her first virtual tour, "The reach and connection was amazing. There were readers from Texas, Wisconsin, Maryland and South Carolina on the call. The call host used reader questions from my book tour website www.askreganblack.com for the interview. It was a great experience and I'm ready to do it again."

Combining Internet websites and teleconferencing the virtual book tour allows authors to connect with readers not only locally but also internationally. Developing personal relationships with readers helps book promotion. According to Alex Mandossian (www.TeleseminarSecrets.com) teleseminars have an intimacy that promotes and encourages relationships. Mandossian, a marketing expert, has interviewed many authors on their virtual book tours Mark Victor Hansen, Dr. Stephen Covey, and Mireille Guiliano.

The next stop for Regan Black's 'Invasion of Justice' virtual book tour is January 26th. Readers can register by going to www.askreganblack.com.
