7. What does not belong in a bio: your personal family history, personal triumphs or tragedies unless they are tied into your area of expertise, your birth place. You can include the location where you currently reside or practice as this can be important if the media would like to book you for a radio or TV segment.
8. Your information has to be absolutely accurate, up to date, and easily verifiable as the media has resources to check out your information.
9. Be sure the author expert bio on your website is exactly the same and consistent with the bio that you are presenting to the media. You can always offer an expanded version on your website. However, you should not be inconsistent with your bio. You can certainly have other info on your website but the bio must remain consistent with the one you present to the media.
10. The purpose of a professional bio for use in the media is to give them a snapshot of your expertise and your author expert platform so they can determine if you qualify as the expert for the segment or article they have in mind. The topic of your book is important but your media bio and platform will lead the way for you.
11. In addition to your media book author expert bio, have a professional .jpeg of yourself in your professional capacity and jpeg of your book cover ready to email to the media upon request.
12. Demo tapes are requested by the media. The media likes to see the author or expert in action to be sure they meet the requirements for an on-camera interview. Have professional quality demo dvd's ready to be sent to the media and of course, better yet, include a video link on your site so the media can check you out without waiting for your demo to be sent overnight. As you send your demo out to the media, be sure to restock. The media moves fast and needs the info immediately and cannot wait for copies to be made or complied etc.
