Description

Reach a whole new audience with this Audiobook Creation Course!

Why only sell 1 version of your book when you can triple your sales and sell 3 versions of your book?!

Turn your book into a Kindle, Paperback and Audiobook version by simply following this step-by-step audiobook creation course.

When it comes to selling books these days, authors and publishers just can’t ignore the power of audio anymore. The growth in audiobooks continues at a phenomenal level.

If you’re a self-published author and you are not creating audiobook versions of your works, both past and present, you really are missing out a large part of your potential audience. But the whole process can get very complicated and expensive, if you don’t know what you’re doing.

Peter Baker presents this very practical “how-to” guide for all authors whether they wish to narrate and record themselves or hire in a narrator / producer to take care of the entire audiobook production process. HD video chapters, many with detailed screen shots of exactly how to record, edit and upload your book and audiobooks to the ACX platform that will be sold on Audible and Amazon sites across the world.

This is a highly detailed course and is packed with essential information. Everything is covered including creating the initial Kindle digital version of your book and optimising the sales using a little known book marketing software program!

Then you’ll learn how to;

Adapt your manuscript for the audio medium; selecting the right choices offered by KDP, ACX and other platforms
Find the right people to help you.
Draft contracts and agreements.
Discover the best way to work with narrators and to give practical and constructive feedback on their recordings.
Authors, learn the techniques of experienced narrators so you can record your own audiobooks!

Also, if you’re the kind of author who can’t let go and would rather do absolutely everything themselves...

Peter will show you how you can set up a studio, narrate, record, edit and upload yourself!

Over 3 hours of HD broadcast studio quality training material with a free downloadable transcript for your reference.

If you want your books to reach a much wider audience then this course is for YOU!
If you want to make a lot more money by selling more books then this is for YOU!
