What if you can be paid by reading your favorite books?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Have you ever thought about what it would take to sell on audible? <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Audible claims it\u2019s possible!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So, you have what it takes to earn from Audible? Let\u2019s find out in this post<\/p>\n\n\n\n
THE GOOD<\/p>\n\n\n\n
THE BAD<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There are countless money-making \u201copportunities\u201d floating around the internet. Why? Because for every problem that exists, someone claims to have the solution. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
And that solution is usually some oddball money-making system that tells you how to turn a casual interest \u2013 or maybe something you\u2019re super passionate about \u2013 into sustainable, reliable income. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Just like selling on Audible<\/strong>. Here\u2019s the hard truth, though\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n Most of these opportunities:<\/p>\n\n\n\n But most importantly, a lot of these things just don\u2019t scale<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cScale\u201d means once you do the work to make a little money, it should get easier<\/em><\/strong> to make more money, not harder<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The problem is, most opportunities out there make it hard to make money at first, and even harder to keep making money. <\/p>\n\n\n\n In other words, you might be able to make some<\/em> money in the beginning, but it won\u2019t be sustainable and you\u2019ll end up getting discouraged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This is the exact opposite<\/strong> of passive income<\/em>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n When income is truly passive, you do the work upfront, but then you set it and forget it. The money gets made whether you\u2019re working or not. It\u2019s not directly tied to the hours you put in. <\/p>\n\n\n\n This is exactly what you need to be on the lookout for when digging through opportunities like selling on Audible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Audible, <\/strong>owned by Amazon<\/strong>, is offering podcasts and audiobooks services<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n With<\/strong> more than 3,000,000<\/strong> audiobook titles<\/strong> ranging from much-loved classics to fresh releases and original podcasts, Audible<\/strong> is the world\u2019s largest producer<\/strong><\/a> and seller of audiobooks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Audible<\/strong>\u00a0is considered superior to other audiobook distributors like\u00a0iTunes<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0Google Play<\/strong>with an impressive group of celebrity and professional narrators and a wide array of unique features.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Audible<\/strong> offers a free 30-day trial<\/strong> with a free audiobook. The audiobook could be one of the classics or an Audible original. If after 30 days<\/strong>, you decide Audible<\/strong> is not for you, you can cancel your membership. Otherwise, you can buy a monthly subscription to Audible<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The price of the Audible membership plan<\/strong> ranges from $22.95 per month<\/strong> to $229.50 per year<\/strong>, depending on your monthly plan<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Audiobook Creation Exchange<\/strong> or ACX <\/strong>is the self-publishing<\/strong> platform of Audible<\/strong>. Working on ACX<\/strong> is as simple as signing up, claiming your book, filling out the details, and uploading the files.<\/p>\n\n\n\n ACX<\/strong> website also offers the following services:<\/p>\n\n\n\n No need to worry about the navigation! ACX <\/strong>exists to make you feel at home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In Audible<\/strong>, you have two options when it comes to Audiobook production<\/a>. These are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n In this option, you will need the proper equipment and software to narrate your book<\/a>, which will cost you less than $200<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Next, you have to allot time to edit your audio files. You listen to the entire book and examine each audio file. You can now upload your audiobook after you fix and re-record the poor audio spots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In this option, you will hire a professional narrator<\/strong> for a finished audio recording of your book. ACX <\/strong>has a database that can connect you to professional narrators.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The cost to have your audiobook produced by a professional depends on the length of your audiobook. Many ACX<\/strong> actors accept an upfront fee of no less than $250 <\/strong>per finished hour of audiobook projects. I recommend using $225-$300<\/strong> for the per finished hour cost to calculate the narrator cost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Choose the right audiobook production deal for you in Audible!<\/p>\n\n\n\n In Audible<\/strong><\/a>, the best platform to sell audiobooks is through ACX<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n With ACX<\/strong>, you have the option to sell books exclusively<\/strong> on Amazon<\/strong>, iTunes<\/strong>, and Audible<\/strong> and receive 40% of the royalties<\/strong>. Otherwise, you have the option to choose the non-exclusive distribution<\/strong> of your audio books and receive 25% of the royalties<\/strong>. In this option, you cannot split royalties with the producer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Selling books on Amazon<\/strong> saved many authors from income crash<\/strong><\/a>. This might work for you, too!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Audiobook<\/strong> production<\/strong> takes courage, skills, talent, and money. But if you have all, you definitely need to try making audiobooks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Nowadays, sales of audiobooks are booming<\/a>! As per Audio Publishers Association<\/strong>, the audiobook industry has reached double-digit revenue growth since 2012.<\/p>\n\n\n\n According to some authors who self-published in Audible, you can earn at least $1,102 <\/strong>in one month if you hit the goal of selling 1,000 <\/strong>audiobooks in a month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n However, your income will still depend on the number of audiobooks you sell. One of the best ways to do this is to market your audiobooks<\/strong><\/a> through different promotion strategies.<\/p>\n\n\n\nWhat Is Audible?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
