Author Marketing Experts announces new client, Richard Hains

In a new twist, author gives away a first-class weekend

in London to promote his book

SAN DIEGO, CA(rushprnews) 01/19/2007– Author Marketing Experts, Inc., an innovative, full service book marketing and promotion firm, announces its new client, Richard Hains, a successful hedge fund manager, gold mine proprietor, and a man known around the UK to be one of the hottest bachelors in London. He is also author of Chameleon, a Wall Street thriller written by an insider who’s spent a good piece of his life managing an intensely confidential hedge fund.

But the centerpiece to Hains’ book campaign is the Win a Weekend with the Author in London’s Fast Lane. The contest includes an all-expense-paid roundtrip ticket to London from anywhere in the US, first-class accommodations, a personal driver to take the lucky recipient to any of London’s hottest tourist sites or shopping spots during the day, and evenings spent with one of London’s fast-moving bachelor authors at some of the finest restaurants and hottest clubs in London -- and perhaps a celebrity sighting or two.

To help push the contest, Hains has also done a slick, funky music video which can be viewed on YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k7geUpWUb04) or on Hains’ web site (www.chameleonanovel.com). The contest winner will be announced at Book Expo America in June 2007. Chameleon (Beaufort Books, June 2006, ISBN: 978-0825305108) has been recently optioned by the highly successful producers of the award-winning film, Hotel Rwanda. Hains has recently completed the final draft of the screenplay and the project is currently in pre-production.  

“This project is one of the most unique we’ve ever launched. It’s edgy, fun and Richard’s passion for his book and his future is contagious. We’re thrilled to be a part of this campaign,” Author Marketing Experts’ CEO Penny Sansevieri says.
