  1. I stumbled upon Sharon Martin of Beck Valley Books when I was seeking book reviews for my newly published book. She mentioned that she belonged to a group who did Book Tours and asked if I would be interested. Having already signed up for two other book tours, I was not sure, but thought I would give it a try.

    Sharon's Tour turned out to be one of the best things I have done to promote my book! Her reviewers posted as scheduled - we lost one due to the power failures caused by Hurricane Sandy but Sharon immediately had another blogger step in to cover it. Her bloggers wrote intelligent reviews making me believe they actually read the book and posted them all around the web on Amazon, Goodreads and Nook as promised. They were not all five star reviews, and I appreciated that. The reviews were honest. This may not seem heroic or remarkable to anyone other than someone who has had a less than professional book tour. I have had both good and bad tours and Sharon stands head and shoulders above any of them. Sharon's Book Tour for DOG-MA, THE ZEN OF SLOBBER was stellar!

    Sharon is also a wonderful tour manager sending links to me everyday for the current day's tour and posting to Twitter, Facebook and other places in cyberspace. I do not know why, but Sharon's tweets get retweeted at a much higher rate than other blog tour hosts I have used. She stays on top of the job, keeping it fresh. I gained many new Twitter followers, developed new author relationships I would not have otherwise found, sold plenty of books but mostly I found a new dependable colleague. We already have another tour planned.

  4. Absolutely one of the best things I've done to promote my book...it's like my Facebook and Amazon pages have received stunning makeovers. They're positively glowing with vitality and excitement!

    Sharon was a dream to work with, just uber-helpful, even going so far as to help me build a better blog. That reminds me, I still have some changes to make! She keeps you posted every step of the way. I just love that, because indy marketing is lonely work. I often feel I'm painting a house with a nail polish brush. It's nice to have an angel like Sharon show up with great treats day after day. Emotionally I really needed this. It came at just the right time. Marketing can be so frustrating. After all, I'm a writer, not a marketing genius. When you discover you've wasted more money and valuable writing time on marketing that just didn't pan out, it can really drag your spirits down. Beck Valley was time and money well spent, every last penny. Thank you Sharon, from the bottom of my heart. I know Swallowtail will continue to benefit from all your hard work for years to come. I'm really going to miss your cheerful daily emails!

  5. Sharon Martin and Beck Valley Books were highly recommended to us by Barbara Brunner, for doing a book tour for us. So glad we decided to go with Sharon!

    We have since done two book tours for our book "If I Should Die Before My Dog". Sharon did such a wonderful job for us on both tours. She makes it so seem so easy and takes her job very seriously. Not to mention taking the stress out of your books promotion. Her daily emails kept us informed, the bloggers she finds for each tour are wonderful. They give honest reviews, posts are done on time and posted to Amazon, Barnes and Noble and many other places that we didn't expect. We too, through Sharon have met many wonderful people.

    It is amazing how much our two tours have helped in selling "If I Should Die Before My Dog"!

    We will do another tour or two with Sharon, through our book tours she has become a valued friend, I don't think you could ask for more!

    So, a huge thank you Sharon for all you have done for us!

    1. Cathy it was wonderful working with you, your book is such an important book to all the dogs out there, making sure not only that they are cared for when their life changes but allowing their current owners to share all their personal habits and special ways to the new owners. Not only that it is beautifully done, my hope is for most dog owners to have a copy.

  6. I don't often go outside of my own resources for blog tours, but ten minutes after chatting with Sharon, I knew I had met someone who would handle my books like they were her own. She's efficient, organized, and professional. Sharon has delivered everything as promised, in a timely fashion, and is quick to address issues. I highly recommend Beck Valley Books for any author's blog tour needs.

    Thank you, Sharon! Truly a pleasure doing business with you!

  8. I unreservedly endorse Sharon Martin of Beck Valley Books for the direction, support and services she provided me as a fairly new self-published author. Sharon was very thoughtful of my financial limits and really put together a fabulous tour package.

    She managed to pull off a complicated book tour which included 22 blog stops over a period of eleven days, and a very successful book giveaway! Sharon is a caring, experienced and motivated book tour organizer and promoter who really gets the needs of the Indie author desiring maximum exposure. I very much enjoyed connecting with various book bloggers, all sharing a common passion; a fantastic opportunity to meet other writers and new readers.

    I strongly recommend Sharon to other writers looking to engage in an interactive and exciting book tour!

  9. I just finished my Book Tour with Sharon. What a great experience. She kept me up to date and informed of where we were in the process and the bloggers she works with did such a great job with their reviews. Such a diverse group. It was fascinating to hear the different perspectives about the same book. I would have Sharon host a book tour for me anytime. Thank you for all of your hard work!

  10. If you're like me and stumbled upon Beck Valley Books, let me encourage you to consider a tour right now. The glowing comments above convined me to e-mail Sharon to ask for more details on her book tours. I'm so glad I did. As several mentioned above, it has been the best thing we've done so far in promoting Guiamo and it was by far worth every penny. The cost was very reasonable.

    Our experience with Beck Valley Books was a positive one from start to finish. Sharon, who does the computer side of things, was quick to answer any questions I had and stayed on top of all that needed to be done. She went above and beyond in helping to promote Guiamo. Even after the tour was over, she offered to post about a giveaway we were doing as part of the Blogger Book Fair. Many companies do what they were paid for and then move on. I'm confident that Beck Valley Books will be a valuable partner in continuing to share the news of Guiamo with others.

    One of the things I was extremely pleased with was that the alexa rating for many of the blogs showed that they received quite heavy traffic. Doing a tour is great, but if no one looks at the blogs hosting, it won't do much good. We have gained many readers and many when asked where they heard of Guiamo say it was from Beck Valley Books.

    As I've told Sharon via e-mail, if we ever make it over to England, we would love to meet in person. We wish Sharon and Stephen all our best.

  11. I've never done a book blog tour before, but Sharon Martin of Beck Valley Books showed me the way into the Brave New World of book promotion! She delivered the book into hands of her network of dedicated bloggers who gave me honest feedback and left helpful reviews (not all five-stars either, but helpful nonetheless--haha).

    I'm not a social media maven by any means, so Sharon also guided me through the strange lands of Twitter and Facebook by reweeting and re-posting so many links that by the end of the tour I was getting sick of talking about my book!

    But above all, most importantly, Sharon is a total sweetheart to work with. Even though we're in different countries, she seemed to always be available to answer my questions and follow-up emails. In fact, sometimes I wondered if she was a bot--or a serious insomniac--as she always seemed to be ready to tackle any request that I had. If you're thinking of doing an online book tour, I highly recommend Sharon Martin of Beck Valley Books to show you the way!

  12. Dear Sharon,

    Thank you for another fabulous book tour! I had a wonderful experience with all the bloggers reviewing my debut novel, The Resurrection of Hannah. You are a fantastic book tour organizer, very professional and caring, really easy to work with and a great communicator, always keeping me posted on the latest status.

    I definitely saw an increase in sales of my novel during and after the tour, and the reviews really uplifted me as it is hard to "put yourself out there", not knowing the response your novel will get. I appreciate your marvelous direction, advice, and the excellent book tour you put together. Looking forward to working with you again in the near future!

    Take care,

  14. Sharon,

    Thanks so much to you and all of your wonderful reviewers!

    I've had phenomenal success from this blog tour: my new book, The Last Oracle has been named an Amazon Hot New Release and (top rated bestseller). For the first time ever, the series hit Amazon U.K.'s bestseller list and all three books have been consistently on the Amazon U.S. bestsellers list within a few days of this blog tour. Further, the number of new fans and followers due to this 7 day tour is just beyond my wildest dreams.

    But to top that all off, your service is of the highest level.

  19. Thank you Sharon for organizing the book blog tour of The Witch's Salvation. It was the first tour of the book and for me, and I didn't know what would be involved except reviews of my book. The book needed the exposure, which it got through the reviewers, but you were so organized. Every morning I looked forward to your prompt links to the reviews. If there were any problems, you quickly addressed them. The Witch's Salvation got wonderful reviews, but more importantly, exposure. I was so surprised at the number of people who entered to win a copy of the book (over 10,000!). I also got a lot of "likes" on my Facebook page and Twitter followers as a wonderful result of the tour and reviews.
    Thank you, Sharon! I will recommend you to any author who needs reviews or a book blog tour.

  20. Sharon did a phenomenal job with my Knowing Vera Review Tour. Not only did she gather a group of awesome bloggers, but she kept on top of the schedule daily. I never had to worry whether a post went out or not, and if there was an unforeseen issue with a blogger, Sharon quickly recruited a replacement blogger to host and make up for the miss. The tour went off without a hitch due to Sharon's diligence and wonderful communication.

    I loved getting a post on my Facebook page linking to the tour stop so I can easily go and comment or tweet the post. The response to the giveaway was beyond what I had hoped, and next time, I'll give away even more prizes, knowing there will be people entering. I gained a lot of Facebook likes, twitter followers and subscribers to my mailing list. But best of all, I know that lots of people will be "Knowing Vera" due to the exposure from my tour.

  22. Thank you Sharon, for organizing and implementing an outstanding blog tour that enabled an effective launch of my book FAIR DISCLOSURE. The 20 reviews produced by the bloggers helped to frame the book. Your daily updates in Facebook and Twitter and other resources publicized the book and its main points and positioned it for further publicizing. Your service in keeping me informed enabled me to also publicize the daily reviews. I appreciated your design of the blog tour logo. Bottom line: your service and perseverance to assure that the tour ran smoothly enabled its success. I cannot express my appreciation enough. But there's more.

    And then there was the giveaway. During the giveaway time period, I received dozens of requests to be added to my distribution list, at least 100 additional FB LIKES, more than 100 new blog followers, at least 100 Goodreads followers, more Pinterest followers than I could track, and hundreds of new twitter followers. The momentum is superb -- certainly more than I ever anticipated.

  28. Beck Valley Book Tour, run by Sharon Martin, was one of the best decisions I have made as a self-promoting author. During the tour, my book rose to top 10 in Family Memoirs on the Amazon Best Sellers list.

    Sharon was professional, knowledgeable and much more punctual than I. It was a delight to read the reviews each day, which were posted all over the web (blogs, Amazon, GoodReads, Google+, and more).

    I would highly recommend Sharon’s book review tour for anyone looking to take their book to the next level and get it in front of prospective readers. Thank you Beck Valley Books – I wish the tour would never end.

My book tour was, in my opinion, wildly successful. I was able to connect with hundreds of new readers and some excellent bloggers.

  31. Hi - this is Robert Doran checking in,

    I would like to thank Sharon Martin and all of her affiliates at Beck Valley Books for the wonderful job they all did with this promotion. Most of the reviews that came in were very gratifying. For the few that were not quite as gratifying, I would like to offer my thanks for having read my book and for giving the book your honest and authentic review. I would especially like to thank Sharon Martin, Sharon was really my only direct contact and her handling of the various bumps and glitches that came up as the book tour proceeded was spectacular. She made the process effortless. I will recommend Beck Valley Books to every author I know.

    I would also like to thank all of the respondents to the book give away. And for those who did not win one of the free signed copies, I will make this offer: if you get the ebook and like it enough to render decent review, email your review to me at Robert-Doran@comcast.net. To the first ten respondents, I will send a signed copy of the first edition (which has some typographical errors.) Beyond the first ten signed copies, as the cost of shipping may become prohibitive, I cannot promise this to everyone who responds but I will consider doing more as I gain a sense of how much it is costing me.

    I would also like to recap that I am recovered from my illness today and I have been married to a wonderful woman for something like seventeen years now. I did not write the book to wallow in my sorrows, or out of any sense of retribution. It is my earnest belief that to not discuss unsavory topics is tantamount to keeping them in darkness. It is my conviction that we need to explore our darkest emotions as a way of resolving them. In my experience, my illness only festered in that darkness, and I truly feel that my willingness to reveal what was happening inside of me was what lead to my recovery. I would earnestly beg anyone who is plagued with heinous thoughts to get themselves into therapy. You are not responsible for the thoughts and feelings that come over you in response to a bad experience, but you are responsible with what you then do in reaction to those thoughts.

    1. Thank you so much Robert, I completely agree that the best course of action for anyone feeling the distress of darkened thoughts is to allow yourself to accept that they happening and they are not your fault, the help and support that is now available to everyone is tremendous.xx

  33. Dear Beck Valley Tour Peeps -
    You did an amazing job with my tour. I felt like a real star. You blasted my novel all across the internet and made me feel proud of my book. The time you took to read my book and review it, post it, and share it on social media sites went above and beyond my appreciation. As an independently published author, I find it difficult to get the word out about my work, but you made it seamless, natural, and fun. I will recommend you to other authors. I feel blessed that I made it into your network and look forward to the next promo. (I guess I better get in line!) Word of mouth works the best and that's why you rock! Authors love your service.
    Hugs and best to all of you,

  34. Beck Valley Book Tour Reviewers, Bloggers and Giveaway Contestants,

    Thank you SO MUCH for the very professional, organized and fun blog tour of my Award Winning. Best Selling memoir I Will Never Forget-A Daughter's Story of Her Mother's Arduous and Humorous Journey Through Dementia.

    I definitely will (and have) recommend this tour to other authors and colleagues. It was competitively priced, comprehensive and a great use of social media.

    Thanks again.

    I would love to hear directly from anyone who may be interested. elainep@iwillneverforgetbook.com

  35. I loved touring with you! I wish we could tour together forever, the experience was so positive. I'll have to hurry and finish my current WIP, so we can! In the meantime, I'll be referring all my author friends. Best to you! ~Lee Fullbright (The Angry Woman Suite)

  36. The Beck Valley Book Tour for The Girl in White Pajamas is now coming to a close. It has been an honor to be reviewed by this group. Each blogger was highly professional, knew the subject matter and contributed their blogs and posts in a timely manner. I look forward to the next tour of The Girl in Black Pajamas.

  37. Another fabulous book tour by Beck Valley Books! I have had three book blog tours with Sharon and her wonderful team of bloggers, and every time it was extremely well put together, professionally executed, ran very smoothly, with thoughtful and honest reviews. It is always a pleasure working with Sharon and she produces exactly what she says she will do, and pulls everything off in a timely manner. I've tried another book tour at a different site just to mix things up, but ran back to Beck Valley for follow up tours because nobody can beat the tours Sharon pulls off. Thanks so much, and I will be contacting you when my third book is done.Blessings to everyone on the team!

  39. Dear Sharon and the Beck Valley Book team,

    This was my first book and obviously my first book tour. I sincerely appreciate all the guidance and assistance you gave me along the way. You made the process both fun and easy. You are truly dedicated professionals in your field. Whenever I had any questions or concerns, you were always available. You are organized, efficient and operate in a timely manner. You were referred to me by another author and I have already referred you to two up and coming authors I know.

    I wish you and yours love and happiness each and every day and I wish you all the best with everything you do.

    Thank you so much again, Jim Cullum

  41. I've done a couple of book tours but Beck Valley Books is by far one of the best ones! Sharon updated me daily with links to the day's tour stop. I had over 8,000 people enter to win the giveaway. Also, nothing beats seeing your book review number climb on Amazon. I now have over 50 reviews! I HIGHLY recommend Beck Valley Books. When my next book is released, Beck Valley is the first book tour I'm going to book!

  42. My second tour with Beck Valley Book Tours has just been completed, and like last time, it's been a wonderful experience. Sharon is organized, sending me links each day to the blog post; the bloggers she works with are articulate and write honest and helpful reviews; she tweets each day's post and her posts are retweeted--bringing awareness to even more readers; she handles the giveaway, making it easy for me to simply send the gift card to the reader; the number of reviews I have on Amazon, B&N, Goodreads, etc has grown exceptionally. Sharon is a true professional, and I couldn't be more pleased or more happy.

  43. The best compliment one can give to a service or product is to buy it again and again. That's how I feel about Sharon Martin's Beck Valley Web tour. The tour publicized my debut collection of stories, CHANCE MEETINGS, with such thrust that it is still having a snowball effect on the social media. The reviews on various blogs led to exposure that I had not expected. Sharon Martin is not only professional but also interacts as if she has known you for years. She does her job with passion, urgency and care.
    Touring with her has been so pleasurable and beneficial that for my next book I am again going on a Beck Valley tour with this extraordinary tour guide.

    1. I am blown away by your kind words Madhu, that means so much to me, thank you so much xx The wonderful thing about doing the book tours is that a book will pop up that is so special and has so much meaning that it connects with everyone who reads it, which is exactly what happened with Chance Meetings, I loved reading everyones reviews, can't wait to read your next book!!

  44. This was a fantastic book tour - the best and most well-organized I've experienced. Every reviewer posted. I received many additions to my mailing list and subscriptions to my youtube channel. Even better, my book sales jumped. I highly recommend this excellent service.

  46. This was my first online book tour, and I couldn’t be more delighted with the results and how well organized it was. The dates for the blog stops were set well ahead, and all posts were done in a timely manner. Each blogger had an established platform with followers. They each cross-posted on more than one site, and I was emailed links at the beginning of each day.

    I gained followers on Twitter, Pinterest, Goodreads, and my own blog. My gift card giveaway attracted more than 12,000 entries. Will I be back? You bet! Thanks, Sharon, for a great first tour experience!

  49. I loved the Beck Valley Book Tour! I cannot thank Sharon Martin enough. The tour was recommended to me by Kathleen Shoop, who also writes historical fiction. I reached out to Sharon to get on her calendar to time it with the release of my book, Return To Me. Everything was easy to follow and professionally done - from the ad Beck Valley created to the organization of the reviews and giveaway. What made this so effective was the successful way Beck Valley Book Tour matches the book to the reviewer. Not only did I wake up to a new review each morning during my debut month, I was able to connect with new bloggers and readers! Every day I gained new followers on Twitter, Facebook, and my author website. I now have a wonderful number of reviews on Amazon, B&N and Goodreads that further boost my visibility. Thank you, Beck Valley Book Tour! I'm already signed up for my next one.

  51. Sharon is an absolute goddess! She is a dream to work with, professional, helpful beyond measure plus working with her is one of the best things I've done to promote my eBook. I received tons of glowing reviews as well as exposure to different audiences around the world.
    During my blog tour, Sharon kept me posted and up to date daily on reviews, blog posts, and giveaways. She was always cheerful and positive… very infectious. My Beck Valley tour was top-notch. I will continue to benefit from all the hard work Sharon did with the tour and will totally work with Sharon again and again.

  53. Working with Sharon and her bloggers is a treat! Sharon's friendly and organized. She follows the tour and comments at each stop. She promotes the posts on social media as well. I wish all blog tour companies were run like Sharon runs hers. And her bloggers are also super. If they signed up to review a book, they not only follow through on their commitment to post to their blog, but they are prompt about posting to the retailers.

  54. I want to thank you for all of the work you do to make your tours successful. I have toured with others, but your coordination is superior. You make certain there is a review each day, even if a host fails to post, and you always send the links, not just to the host's site but to Amazon, Nook, and the other sites as well. Not all coordinators do these things! Thank you so much!

I love that you were so prompt to reply to any questions and to keep me up to date with what was going on. The links that you sent to each blog post and reviews each day was amazing. Having my novel shared on social media frequently was a treat. Thank you for making this book review tour an enjoyable experience. And thank you to all of the people who read and reviewed my novel, posted on their blogs, shared on social media and put the reviews on the online book stores. So very much appreciated.

  58. Beck Valley Book Tours is the most organized and well run book tours I've encountered. Sharon does a wonderful job in attending to the details, which I truly appreciated. I received the links every day and reviews were always posted in a timely manner. On one occasion when Sharon was unable to confirm with a review, she ran promotions instead.

    I have experience an upsurge in Facebook views and follows on my blog. It was a great experience and Sharon is wonderful to work with. Thanks for all of your wonderful work!

My number of followers increased on both Twitter and Goodreads, people signed up for my newsletter through my website, and I gained a lot of great exposure.

    The bloggers gave thoughtful reviews and it was interesting to read their reaction to the book - and to see what parts they responded to. I would highly recommend this book tour! And I look forward to signing up again in the future! Thank you Sharon for all of your work!!!
