In the past, here on the show we talked about different aspects of self-publishing and DIY book marketing. None of those episodes, however, touched on how to create audiobooks.
If you have listened to my podcast before, you have probably heard me talk about my passion for audiobooks and, it’s no surprise that even one of the sponsors of the 360 Entrepreneur is Audible, one of the largest marketplaces for audiobook enthusiasts.
If you have been wondering about how you could create an audiobook on your own, just like you could publish your own ebook, you’re going to love this one!
In this episode we talk about how to create audiobooks for Audible and iTunes and discuss what you need to think about and do in order to either create your audiobook from scratch or turn your existing book or kindle into one.
Along with Krystal Wascher of CreateAudiobooks.com, we dive into the world of audiobooks and mention the benefits of creating one, how to easily set up your home recording studio, how to generate passive income through royalties and many other things Krystal touches on in her ebook Narration: A Beginner’s Guide to Creating Audiobooks for Audible & iTunes.
