The Eagle Literary believes it’s essential to explore all market avenues, especially if you’re a self-published author. Now that you’ve successfully published your book traditionally, it’s time to expand your reach with an audiobook. Here are a few reasons why you should consider it:

1. Reach New Readers: Audiobooks are perfect for multitaskers and those always on the go. Many audiobook listeners prefer this format exclusively, so offering an audiobook version can help you reach a broader audience.
2. Less Competition: The audiobook market is less saturated than physical and eBook markets, giving you a better chance to stand out.
3. Revitalize Your Story: If your marketing efforts have stalled, an audiobook can breathe new life into your story.
4. Gain Credibility: Having an audiobook enhances your credibility as an indie author, as few indie authors currently offer them.

If you’re considering an audiobook, here’s a simplified process:

Stage 1: Audition

• Prepare a 2-3 page audition script with dialogues, descriptive text, and key accents or character voices.
• Select your preferred narrator from the candidates.

Stage 2: Production

• Create a 15-minute sample to agree on character voices, accents, pacing, tone, and pitch.
• Approve the 15-minute sample before full production.

Stage 3: Review and Approve

• Make necessary corrections to the final audio (2 rounds included).

Stage 4: Audiobook Ready!

• Update your marketing materials to promote your new audiobook.
