Over 410 million listeners have enjoyed ArtistFirst Radio in just the past 64 months!

ArtistFirst Radio's "Author Assist Host: Karina Kantas" is a LIVE one-hour prime-time worldwide promotional radio show on the ArtistFirst RadioNetwork, broadcast about independent authors, their books, their lives and their struggles as an indie author. It's a comfortable fun chat with some music thrown in for good measures.

There is also a Q&A session where Karina will be answering promotion and marketing problems.


ADVERTISING OPPORTUNITIES
~ 30-second radio ID gets played on the break of my show -
~ Get you book/graphic banner posted on my show page on the artist first radio network -
https://www.artistfirst.com/kantas.htm
~Your book to be mention on air.
~ Author will have a professional, recorded ad created for them and it will be added to the network and be played in between broadcasts throughout the weeks. So it will be added to the advert roll.


There is so much competition for authors especially on social media that it's getting harder to be noticed. Narration is used to sell audiobooks. But what about using narration as a promotional tool?
I narrate in video and audio. A small, up to six minutes’ excerpt from a book or story. This narration is not unique, but it does need to be crafted well. When done correctly it can be one of the strongest promotional tools an author can have.

The reading needs to tease and entice the listener/viewer into buying the book. This take time, patience, and talent.

I narrate in all genres and will help the author choose the best excerpt to use.


An author needs to have a book trailer that is eye catching, dramatic and will make the viewer want to go out and buy the book.
A thirty second or a ten-minute trailer will NOT work. And you do NOT need to pay hundreds of pounds or dollars to get the job done.

It is my job to put the trailer together, tell your story in images, music, and very little text.
