Publisher Public Relations Specialist
Blue Byron Books is a modern publishing collective redefining American culture and ideas by amplifying bold, innovative, and imaginative voices.
We are a technology-forward, digitally native publishing house built by Millennials and Gen Z — creating books, ideas, and cultural projects that matter now. We operate as a collaborative collective of writers, designers, editors, and creators working together to build something meaningful and lasting.
The Opportunity
We are looking for a Public Relations Specialist who can advocate for our authors, our books, and our vision — and help bring Blue Byron Books into wider cultural awareness.
This role is focused on proactive outreach, not passive posting.
A key priority is securing speaking engagements and workshop opportunities at colleges and universities for our lead creators — creating both awareness and revenue to fuel our mission.
What You’ll Do
- Reach out to colleges, universities, and organizations to secure speaking opportunities and workshops
- Pitch Blue Byron Books, its authors, and its cultural vision to press, media, and institutions
- Build relationships with professors, student organizations, and event coordinators
- Actively advocate for our work — via email, phone, and direct outreach
- Identify opportunities to expand awareness and cultural presence
Compensation
- Unpaid internship with 15% commission on speaking/workshop fees you secure
- Opportunity to gain hands-on experience in outreach, publishing, creator partnerships, and audience growth within an early-stage creative collective
Who You Are
- Not afraid to reach out, follow up, and get on the phone
- Proactive — you don’t wait for responses, you create opportunities
- Strong communicator with confidence and clarity
- Hungry, driven, and excited to build something meaningful
- Interested in publishing, culture, and the future of ideas
You don’t need years of experience — but you do need conviction, initiative, and follow-through.
How We Work
- Remote, collaborative, and fast-moving
- We give green lights — not micromanagement
- We value initiative, accountability, and execution
- We are building long-term partnerships, not one-off gigs
