Tips for Self Promotion, Sales, and Advertising discussion

Has anyone used Bostick Communications? They supposedly have a database of over 20,000 book reviewers and assorted book-related contacts. I'd love to know if anyone has had success with their service.

Check with Absolutewrite.com, writers beware, and editors and predictors. Google search. It doesn't look good.

I've read some info on them on other sites. A few people (on review sites) say they receive books from them to review. These people apparently get a list and are able to request what interests them. Those requests are forwarded to the participating authors, who then send out the books.

From all I've read, it's a great deal for people looking to review books. I'm just curious if it has done anything for the authors.

Go for it. Might give 'em a shot myself. doesn't cost anything, don't see how it could hurt to use for review. why not. What crits I saw on it didn't say anything about their reviewing. Keep us posted.
