Episode 418: Cookbook Publicity Secrets: What Top PR Agents Want Cookbook Authors to Know

Welcome back to another episode of the Cookbook Love Podcast! Today's episode pulls together the best publicity advice from top cookbook PR agents who've been on this show. These experts have worked with names like Jacques Pepin, Julia Child, and Ina Garten, and have helped first time authors build a following from scratch. When I laid their advice side by side, the overlap was clear, and that's what this episode is built around: what to focus your time and energy on, and what to let go of, and what's working in 2026. After this episode, you will: Know where to put your time and energy, without spreading yourself thin Have clarity on publicity vs marketing, and choose the right tool for the job Release the pressure of one big launch so that you can build something sustainable Own your own origin story, so that you are ready for the moment someone asks why your book matters Stop chasing what isn't working, and put your energy toward what is If this episode has you rethinking where to put your energy as you build toward your own book, get on my email list for free training on cookbook writing.
