HOW TO MAKE AN AUDIOBOOK - in 5 simple steps!

If you want to make more sales and earn more money from your eBook, Kindle or Paperback book then why not simply turn your book into an audiobook? The world has gone audiobook and podcast crazy and you need to take advantage of this!

In this short video I’ll show you what you need to do to make an audiobook, and if you’d like to watch detailed training videos showing you exactly every step of the way, then click on the link below this video to find out more….

Step 1 – Launch the Kindle version first. Sign up to KDP, click to join “Kindle Unlimited” to get maximum % royalties and to get access to marketing campaigns, download the “done-for-you” templates to get your book instantly looking great and get your book on Amazon as a digital Kindle book first. That way, it’ll be easy to link your new audiobook version to the already-published Kindle version and the audiobook will be on offer on the same Amazon page as your paperback and Kindle versions, giving your customers the choice, or they may buy all three! My full training videos will tell you exactly what to do including optimising your keywords and categories to maximise your Kindle sales.

Step 2 – THINK AUDIO. So many authors don’t do this and wonder why they don’t get good feedback. Go through your existing book carefully and tweak the content so it makes sense in just the audio format. Remember that listeners won’t see graphs, charts or photos and also may need more prompts as to who is saying what in fiction books when they can’t see the layout, spacing or speech marks! Think of your book as a “radio script” and you won’t go wrong.

Step 4 – If you’re narrating yourself, find a local studio you can hire or ideally do it yourself at home. My videos will show you in detail the best way to set up a recording facility and to edit and export using free software. It needn’t cost a fortune to set up a studio to record audiobooks at home – the key to professional results is in the techniques used.

Step 5 – Check that the exported files are correct in all the technical areas of levels, silence gaps, file type and data rate, or they’ll get rejected. Most audio software programs will give you all the technical options you need, you just need to select the correct parameters and export. Then upload to ACX with your optimal keywords, sales description and cover artwork. Choose the audio sample very carefully to intrigue potential buyers, and fiction writers, don’t reveal any plot spoilers in the sample! Now - your audiobook is on sale to the world!

Hi, Sir.
Where could I find some good musical and sound effects for my audiobooks? I haven't found any website that meets my purposes so far. And do you explain how can you work with music and sfx properly in your paid courses?
Thank you in advanced!

hey :) If I record myself reading a book that is not mine and upload that to youtube, does that count as copyright infringement ?

[MommyAnswerLady]

I already have the audio files done. What I need is to figure out how to make a single file with chapters in it of all the audio files so I can sell it as a digital audiobook on my website. I cannot find this information anywhere! How can I make a file that will have chapters in it so it can be downloaded from my website without the customer having to download each chapter?

Question please.. Can I create audio books of other authors books and post them on my youtube channel? Or is it illegal

First time i ever heard your voice was with the character call Orville Elephant from Five Night At Freddy's Ultimate Custom Night

[ajittffcure]

Very interesting presentation. Just wondering wouldn't AI voices or other speech software be more feasible than hiring multiple narrators? What are the advantages and disadvantages of using the same?

[Audiobook_Alchemist]

Yes, and wait 5 days until amazon kindle is blocking you for your whole life for unknown reason 😄 at amazon you never know when you cross the wrong line 👏👏👏

This isn’t a how-to video!! It is a class advert!!!

Have you published any audiobooks yet? If so show all the checks you got from them and how much money you made. Lot of scammers on youtube right now are you one of them
