HOW TO MARKET YOUR AUDIO BOOK




1.) MAKE A SOUND CLOUD PAGE to showcase a few of your audio books like I did:


Take a listen why don't you?
 There is a promoted book ahead of mine:
the price you pay for a free site.


2.) OFFER FREE AUDIO DOWNLOADS FOR HONEST REVIEWS:

 ACX will give you codes for free downloads.  Use them to create interest.
 
Just give me your email address, and I will send you the code for a free audio of RETURN OF THE LAST SHAMAN 


3.) REQUEST REVIEWS FROM SITES WHICH OFFER REVIEWS -

A simple Google search of “audio book reviewers” gave me:
  1. http://audiobookreviewer.com/
  2. http://www.audiofilemagazine.com/contact/
  3. http://www.eargasmsaudiobookreviews.com/
  4. http://audiobookjungle.com/about/review-policy/
  5. http://audiobookjukebox.squarespace.com/solid-gold-reviewer-program/
  6. http://audiothing.blogspot.com.au/

4.) CONNECT WITH AUDIO BOOK GROUPS

 Here are a few groups to get you started:
  1. Audiobooks Goodreads Group
  2. FREE Audiobook Giveaways! Facebook Group
  3. Everything Audiobooks E.A.R.S Facebook Group
  4. Audiobook Promos – For Authors & Readers of All Genres Facebook Group
  5. Audiobook Blogs & Reviews Twitter List by Karen Commins

    Don't know if I'll ever do an audio version of one of my books, but I really admire you, Roland, for going through all the work and preparation that venue must take. Me, I'm still trying to gear up to publish two more novels; trouble is the screenwriting has really distracted me.

    Seems like you and I just don't have enough time to write as much as we'd like.

      Audio lends a whole new dimension to your reading pleasure. It is like listening to a radio drama.

      Yes, audio's have a lot of work for the narrator to accomplish to make one. My Stetson's off to each and every one of them, especially Robert Rossmann who is both a stage actor and stage director!

      It is becoming increasingly hard for me to find time to write as once I did. Sigh!

    Hi Roland - it's great to have the tips to hand so to speak. Especially as I know none of this ... fascinating to read what's available - thanks so much for posting. Cheers Hilary

      I try to help smooth the path for those who have similar dreams. I had no idea of how to do any of this until I found myself in the need to market!

      If only I were a master! But thanks for thinking so. I want to help my friends not stumble as much as I did learning this. :-)
