"I was very pleased with the Amazon reviews Cadence Group obtained for my book. They were well-written, professional and geographically disperse. Many other reviews look and sound like friends and family, but these did not, which added to their credibility. My sense is that many store managers, librarians, book groups, etc use Amazon reviews as a resource before agreeing to schedule an author event, and these reviews were very helpful in presenting my book in a positive light.

I was also very pleased with the store outreach. We were able to schedule a number of events, both at stores and libraries. Even though not all the events were well-attended, the ancillary benefits—such as making the store employees aware of the book and getting prime shelf space before and after the event—made the events worthwhile."

"I have been working with the Cadence Group for the last several months to promote my book "Colonel Trash Truck" and the service and the response to my book has been outstanding. The publishing industry seems to be a complicated and tricky nut to crack with few people willing to give you clear, definitive information. The first time I spoke to Amy Collins and Bethany Brown of the Cadence group, I felt a weight lift off my shoulders. The best way to navigate the industry finally became clear and the recommendation on how to get my book in front of the right people was focused and aggressive. The best thing I can say about the Cadence group is that they bring an enormous amount of professionalism and expertise to book marketing. They have taken an amazing amount of guess work and stress out of my life and I am so appreciative."

-Kathy Crawley, Colonel Trash Truck

"Bethany Brown is an excellent speaker, organized, knowledgeable, and enjoyable. She brings new ideas on marketing, a fresh look at queries, and a thorough presentation jam-packed with helpful information. I recommend her and can't wait to have her visit us again."

Thanks,
Joyce

Amy Collins was just what I was looking for in a consultant and sales rep.  She quickly and effectively presented our books to national buyers who not only placed orders, but selected one of our books Little Bunny Kung Fu as the Borders Original Voice.  Amy was also available for consulting advice on covers, design and presentation, making sure out titles had the best possible chance with the national market.
 
I would recommend Amy Collins and the Cadence Group to anyone who wants the best for their business!

The Cadence Group brings new meaning to the phrase "customer service" by combining competence and the willingness to go the extra mile. Equally important to a successful partnership is the fact that they listen and execute their client's vision with precision and great style. Amy Collins is a pleasure to work with.

Amy Collins of The Cadence Group has been an incredible valuable asset to our publishing company. She is accurate, timely, considerate, and, above all, bubbling over with advice and guidance. Spending ten minutes with Amy is more valuable than hours with anyone else I know.

Amy Collins has educated me in the world of publishing and its entities. She was instrumental in getting my name in the world of books which included distribution, publishing and being shelved in book stores across the US. I can’t begin to express my delight in finding The Cadence Group and signing on with them and Amy Collins is refreshing to work with. She is honest and very knowledgeable about all aspects of publishing and the world of books.

Thank you and the rest of The Cadence Group for making my book a success. I don't know when I've worked as hard, gotten as much accomplished and had such a good time. Your professionalism pulled it together.
 
Hope you understood my dedication to you in Last Call as the 'Cyber Nag'. Truthfully, if you hadn't of been there it wouldn't have gotten done.
 
Don't let Cadence get too big to not have room for me and my next book. 
 
Again, thank you,

To have Amy working with me on my newest book, The Truth, I’m a Girl, I’m Smart and I Know Everything! is so much fun. Working with Ms. Collins is actually a dream come true for me. As an author of now my fifth book, I look back and wonder, “Amy, where were you? I only wish you had entered my life years ago!”

Amy is the ultimate professional—she knows the business of books. She is pleasant. She is honest. She keeps to her timetables. She is creative and always willing to brainstorm a new idea. She returns calls. Her fees are very fair.

As a new fiction publisher, I felt I needed a highly-regarded expert in books sales to launch my first series. Amy used her experience and contacts to sell my book, Erec Rex: The Dragon’s Eye, into Barnes and Noble, Borders, Books a Million, Ingram, Baker and Taylor, and even got it on a Christmas display! She certainly helps get small publishers the attention (and orders) they deserve.

In the time that I have worked with Amy, I have been truly impressed with her follow-up and attention to detail. She has just the right combination of knowledge, experience and perseverance. She is quick to act when the situation calls for it, making herself available at all times for such instances. She is a pleasure to work with, and I look forward to continue growing our business with her help.

In one short year, Cadence Marketing built the marketing foundation for the History Publishing Company, brand new to the publishing business, by taking it to the next plateau getting its first three books into Ingram, Baker and Taylor and a host of other important outlets. Cadence is truly a heavyweight in the publishing business.

Amy Collins was terrific. Not only did she make the process go smoothly with her expertise and knowledge of how the book industry works, but she also delivered everything she said she would on time. In addition, she pitched and pre-sold my book to all the major bookstores!

Coming from 32 years in the graphic design, printing, marketing and publishing field, it’s refreshing to work with the professionalism, candor, and expertise of Cadence Marketing Group. My needs were met, standards of quality were retained, intricate details were handled, and the end results were stellar. We worked on three projects simultaneously, creating a high-demand book series, with more titles to follow. Her ideas and guidance were superb and welcomed.

Having you manage the project with people who you knew could deliver and at good prices was worth every penny. Since we don’t produce lots of books to give these contractors (editors, designers, printers, etc.) lots of business, it is difficult to keep them on your schedule and to negotiate a good price. We tend to learn a lot through trial and error which is costly and has put us behind schedule in the past. You do such an excellent job of follow-up and really care about the success of the project; it made the whole experience such a pleasure.

Amy Collins of the Cadence Group has been a dream to work with. Her expert knowledge about the book publishing business has been essential to me in getting my three children's books self published. She is honest, easy to reach and always looking out for her client's best interest. She is able to tell you what needs to be done and guides you in a timely manner every step of the way. She will also tell you what is a waste of her client's time and, more importantly, their money. She absolutely does what she promises and I would be happy to refer both her and her company's services to anyone serious about getting their work into book form, making it available for both bookstore and online purchase, as well as marketing their product.
