A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.
John 13:34-35

Known as the “connector,” Pam Perry knows how to pull the right people together for the right project at the right time. Her public relations and advertising career spans over two decades. A graduate from Wayne State University with a B.A. in journalism, Perry has worked in media and the nonprofit sector.

She’s had sales positions at the Detroit Free Press, WNIC FM, WXYT/WMXD, agencies like Campau Advertising and Hermanoff & Associates. She’s worked in fund raising and development – selling the vision and mission of Joy of Jesus and then The Salvation Army.

Perry was the founder of BART (Blacks in Advertising, Radio & Television), a nonprofit networking organization for African Americans in the media. Over a ten-year period, the organization hosted career conferences, award programs honoring African American heroes in the industry and held regular professional development meetings. She is also a past winner of the “One to Watch” Award from the American Women in Radio and TV – Detroit Chapter and jointly won an Emmy for her work as a producer for “The Edge with Jeffrey Miller” television show. Currently she does public relations for the publishing industry.

Her best training and experience came when she spent five years working in her husband’s marketing communications firm, Perry Marketing Group. Now she uses those skills to give back to local ministries through Ministry Marketing Solutions which is a public relations/marketing consulting firm. The website address is www.ministrymarketingsolutions.com. A consummate communicator, Perry has even taught journalism at Renaissance High School in Detroit. She also pens weekly columns in the Michigan Chronicle and Michigan Front Page. Her work has also appeared in Gospel Today magazine, The Detroit News, The Detroit Free Press, CBA Marketplace Magazine, Precious Times Magazine, Christian Covenant News and The Christian Communicator.

Her passion is Christian books and assisting writers through the American Christian Writers Association (www.Acwriters.com) where she is president/founder of the Detroit Chapter. She and her family attend Life Changers Christian Center in Lansing under Drs. James and Stacia Pierce. She and her husband, Marc have a daughter and live in the metro Detroit area.

Hosea 4:6 (NIV)




My people are destroyed from lack of knowledge.
"Because you have rejected knowledge,
I also reject you as my priests;
because you have ignored the law of your God,
I also will ignore your children.

TOP 10 PR SECRETS FOR CHRISTIAN AUTHORS

1. Pray. Ask God to show you WHO to contact and WHEN. If you are hiring a publicist, ask God to lead you to the right person. Know in your “knower” that it is a divine connection.

2. Be a database collector. I have been known to go to my 30-year reunion and add folks from there to my database. Eblasts are great. It’s called viral marketing – it spreads like virus. Have a system to stores and retrieve your names/contacts.

3. Join groups where media attend. I joined the National Association of Black Journalists as an associate member. I go to their meetings and some have become friends and it’s a lot easier to get things in the press if people know you. Go to CBA!

4. Read what the “best sellers” are doing. Go to their websites. Look at their previous hits. See if you can get their galley and see what their marketing plan entailed and modify to fit your book.

5. Ask your target market (you have defined one right) what they read, listen to and how they get their news and information – and you read the publications too. Research.

6. Go to other authors book signings. You reap what you sow and you will learn a lot in the process. They may even share their “secrets” with you. Fellow Christian authors are never competitors…. we are all in the business of spreading the Gospel.

7. Know what constitutes a best-seller. How many copies need to sell? What stores report? How to they report?

8. Contact at least two media people a day. Building relationships is key. Use your “signature” on everything. Never let something go out without your website on it!

9. Look at other author press kits. Go online and see other author’s “press rooms” on their sites. Embellish your kit to add the “best” ideas of the best.

10. Apply at least ½ the information you know about PR and marketing from conferences, books and articles you read. You’ll be ahead of the game for sure.
