I'm looking at getting in contact with a TV show here, which looks at sport, lifestyle and culture aspects around sports such as surfing, freestyle motorcross, BMX, skateboarding, and such. The show targets a teenage audience (I reckon about 13-20 or so) which comes into the target for my book.
I want to contact them and see if they will do a review or even an interview. The show isn't in production at the moment, so I've got a little bit of time to get my crap together.
Thing is, I'm not really sure how to pitch it! Obviously, I go in with a fresh copy of the book, but would there be anything else I would need to give them. Do I put together a "media kit" kind of thing? Most of the ones I've seen seem to consist of 48 minutes of bullshit and 12 minutes of commercials.
Any and all tips would be gratefully received!
PS: I think I posted in the wrong section. Many apologies. I think this needs to go into "Book promotion ideas and advice". Thank you.
