To Whom It May Concern:

I am the Publisher at Cedar Fort, Inc. We have a backlist of 1700 titles and currently publish 120 new titles each year. We have been using Ascot Media Group since August of 2007.

The ability of this group to key in on certain market segments is nothing short of fantastic. The specific effort of Trish Stevens and her group resulted in one of our authors getting onto the NYT bestseller extended list.

We are very excited about our future with Ascot Media Group. You are more than welcome to call me as a reference.

Thank you,

Lyle V. Mortimer

To Whom It May Concern:

My name is Steve Alten and I am the N.Y. Times best-selling author of seven novels. I have worked with no less than a dozen publicists since my first novel, MEG, hit best-seller lists in 1997 and have been frustrated by the mixed results and wasted dollars spent. For my eight novel, THE SHELL GAME, I hired Ascot Media Group to do a viral internet blitz. The results have been incredible.

Ascot targeted websites, blogs, and organizations that believe in the message of The SHELL GAME. They received requests for advanced reading copies from over 300 groups representing tens of thousands of supporters. A month prior to the book’s release, the publisher presold 37,000 of the 40,000 first prints. During the first month of its release, The SHELL GAME hit numbers 33 and 31 on the NY Times best seller list.

In addition to the viral campaign, Ascot targeted the media in the thousands, resulting in radio and television interviews that also helped push me on to the NY Times best seller list.

I highly recommend Ascot Media to anyone looking for a big return on their advertising buck.

Letter of recommendation for Trish Stevens and the Ascot Media Group

Dealing with media is not unlike walking through a large and very old house with darkened hallways and many locked doors. There are obviously actions occurring behind the closed doors but to the outsider these sacred doors can be impenetrable as bank vaults.

With Trish Stevens and the team at Ascot Media, the old scary house suddenly becomes an open house with everyone that was so untouchable and locked behind blocked barriers suddenly becoming accessible and approachable.

There can be no doubt that Trish Stevens and her team are true shinning stars in the publicist field and relentlessly rely on techniques that most other firms consider too much work. The Ascot Media Group is unstoppable in their conquests for their client’s goals and show kind attention and patience when guiding newcomers through the mysteries of the media world.

I cannot recommend strongly enough Trish Stevens and the Ascot Media team.
