TERRY CATER

TERRY CATER – Publicist

I publicize your books with a quick 6 week roll out or a longer collab over a few months. I score you TV, podcast and radio interviews.

Overview

I have almost 20 years of experience in book publicity and before that I was in the trenches working in network TV newsrooms. I get what publicity takes! Authors appreciate my publicity experience and newsroom knowledge.


I've founded 2 publicity and media production companies in New York City. My first company had a successful 18 year run and was considered one of the leading production companies in the country. And now I aim for another successful 18+ years.


I have helped thousands of experts climb to the top of bestselling lists, amplify their profiles and increase their businesses. My roster of clients include:

*U.S. Presidents, A-list celebrities, C-suite execs, doctors, professional athletes, and experts in various industries

*Bestselling authors and debut writers of fiction and non-fiction

*The biggest publishing houses, hybrids, independents, and self-published

*Folks just beginning their career journey and then come back once they become well-known

*Just about everyone in every field and in every genre


I give you personalized white-glove service from A to Z. I shadow you every step of the way. After a discovery call, I map out our collaboration including writing all your press materials. Once I gather all the information that I need from you, I’ll go after the media. I pitch and secure interviews and placements through my extensive list of contacts so you can guest on shows. You will appear on radio, TV and podcast shows and programs. I handle all the scheduling and the production. All you have to do is sit back and relax until it’s interview time.


My authors have appeared on:

*TV: national network shows as well as morning and midday shows across the country which are affiliated with the big networks like ABC, CBS, NBC, Fox and CNN

*Radio/Podcasts: local drive time shows and radio shows spanning such networks like NPR, Sirius-XM, and Business Talk Radio as well as podcasts that live on iTunes, Spotify and iHeartMedia.


And I make sure you are camera-ready. I've trained hundreds of experts with every type of personality and with varying degrees of media experience - some seasoned who need a refresher course and some first-timers who haven’t a clue. Whichever category you fall under, you will be media-ready!

I had the pleasure of working with Terry for my book, and I couldn't be more impressed with her dedication and results. She went above and beyond, securing far more radio and podcast interviews than I anticipated in a remarkably short time. Her work ethic is outstanding, and she was always available - checking in on each interview and providing support throughout the process. Not only is she hi...
