Testimonials

  • "Alyssia was a dream to work with from the beginning of the campaign for my book, through its end. An excellent communicator, she explained what she’d do throughout the seven-month process, and she followed through on each point in an organized, professional manner. She wrote a strong press release, as well as pitches and personalized emails, and she made submissions that yielded results. She provided weekly updates and together we set weekly goals. My book received numerous reviews in places I couldn’t have accessed on my own, like The Washington Post. Alyssia’s advice also led to multiple interviews and profiles, including one in the LA Times. Her technical and marketing skills are impeccable. She offered guidance on social media outreach and she provided website updates. Alyssia is intelligent, dependable, and a pleasure to interact with. I hope to have the opportunity to work with her again."

  • "Alyssia Gonzalez was the publicist for the launch of my debut memoir, Now You Are a Missing Person (Moon Tide Press). She did a magnificent job of getting the word out! Alyssia is dedicated, calm, creative, motivated, diligent, kind, trustworthy and BRILLIANT. She conceives great ideas, thinks ahead and always follows through. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for support in launching their book!!"

    — Susan Hayden, author of Now You Are a Missing Person

  • "Alyssia built an entire book publicity and marketing department for Level 4 Press, then handled all aspects of that work. This included supervising a staff of three, working with a half-dozen editors, and working with partner stakeholders (e.g., distributors, writers). Her work was quite broad, encompassing advertising (print, TV, on-line); social media; metadata maintenance; promotions; and publicity. She's very process focused, works well with people, very smart (fast learner), and a metaphorical rock that you can count on. I highly recommend Alyssia."

    — William Roetzheim, CEO of Level 4 Press

  • "Alyssia worked for me for a short time but did an amazing job. She did everything from organizing my social media to strategizing next steps to grow my audience to managing all of my ads across various platforms to reaching out to different book conferences to get me a signing or speaking spot. Alyssia was wonderful to work with—always quick to respond to any questions and open to any ideas I had. She encouraged me to push beyond my comfort zone to see if I could reach readers that had yet to see my books. Any author or publisher would be lucky to have such an intelligent, diligent, and all-around awesome person on their team."

  • "It’s a pleasure to work with Alyssia. She has a lot of book industry savvy and marketing skill. Her research on comps for my novels provided a lot of insight, and she suggested concrete steps for positioning them in the market—everything from book blurbs, to covers, to metadata, and even marketing strategies. She didn’t simply repackage a cookbook solution and fill in the blanks with my details. Her work was thorough, careful, and tailored to the unique challenges of my mutli-genre work."
