World History Encycopedia's vast library of content is now being published in the shape of printed books and eBooks. While our own audience loves the books, we need your expertise to promote our books to new audiences.
We want to design and execute a targeted, hands-on promotional campaign for our two physical books: The Forsaken 14th Century: A Global History and The Romans: Antiquity's Ultimate Transformative Culture. As an evolving, AI-driven web shifts search behaviors, our physical book catalog is a key pillar in building deep, direct brand recognition that bypasses the AI summary middleman.
Apply at the bottom of this page.
You will actively own and execute the day-to-day campaign work, specifically focusing on:
Book Promotion: Drive targeted campaigns to boost the visibility of our physical catalog, including establishing outreach to digital book reviewers and running micro-influencer gifting loops (e.g., BookTok, Bookstagram, BookTube).
Public Relations: Craft compelling pitches and directly contact journalists, history podcasters, and book-related newsletter editors to secure review coverage, features, and interview spots for our team.
Please note that this is not a high-level consulting role. We need a resourceful, hands-on doer with at least five years of marketing or PR experience who can create the immediate outreach framework and handle the actual day-to-day execution to scale up our book sales and awareness.
You are able to commit at least 5 hours per week to this position.
Proven marketing or public relations experience of at least five years, preferably in the book publishing industry
Experience with both digital and non-digital marketing activities
Strong strategic thinking and creative problem-solving skills
Proficiency in digital marketing tools and analytics
