How to Publish Your Book as an Audiobook with Scott Sigler

For the last 11 years, audiobooks have seen double-digit sales growth year over year. The audiobook market is now $1.8 billion.

That means audiobooks are no longer an optional, nice-to-have feature when you launch your book.

If your book isn’t in audio, readers assume it isn’t good enough to merit an audiobook. Some readers interpret the lack of an audiobook to mean that even the paperback isn’t worth reading.

But how do you make an audiobook? Should you read it yourself or hire a narrator?

In this week’s episode, Scott Sigler walks us through the steps of turning your book into an audiobook, and you’ll discover you have several good options. You’ll learn how to

• Write a book that sounds good to listeners

• Edit with an audiobook-first mindset

• Find and work with a narrator

• Record the book yourself

Whether you’re in the beginning stages of writing your manuscript or a few months from launch, you’ll want to listen in to find out how offering an audiobook can validate the quality of your book and increase your sales in all formats.
