Andréa Córdova – Publicist

I'm a passionate publicist with a deep love of books, media, and research. I've worked on a wide variety of genres and can show results.

Overview

I have over 7 years of public relations experience - 5 years in a boutique public firm working on music and 2 years in-house working on book campaigns. I work closely with clients to conjure a PR plan that amplifies the book and meaningful press for the author.

I've secured top media including Amanpour & Company, Associated Press Television News, and print coverage in New York Times, The Economist, LA Times, Vanity Fair, Washington Post and radio including NPR, NPR Weekend Edition and NPR Latino USA.

I would recommend Andrea. She has an extensive list of public relations contacts. She will get your pitch into their inboxes. My book ended up getting a mention in The Millions and may tentatively get a nod from the Amazon Book Editor. For a self-published author, I wasn’t expecting attention from publications that large. Definitely worth working with Andrea.

Although we did not have the success we hoped for (mine was a niche audience), Andrea was diligent, consistent, considerate, and communicative, especially considering our project spanned most of the length of the pandemic. Andrea was open to new ideas as well as flexible and sincere.
