Recording Only Workshop Ticket: Putting Your Audiobook to Work for You with Becky Parker Geist

June 24, 2023 by Ruth Schwartz Leave a Comment

Whether planning an audiobook or you already have one, there are actionable ways to put it to work for you to increase sales of all formats and build community. Most retail platforms, however, won’t help you with that. There is one that will: AMPlify

New opportunities in audiobook distribution, combined with some strategic action, can turn your audiobook into a great marketing resource and focal point for building community. We’ll evaluate where we are each starting, then dig into the details to mine the opportunities.

Participants will map out the steps and leave this workshop with an action plan that works for you, what you already have in place re marketing, and what you feel comfortable and confident about putting in place. You’ll also be encouraged and given the chance during the workshop to connect with other authors writing for a similar target audience. Then we’ll map out plans for these strategic alliances.

This will be a very hands-on, get-it-done workshop, so come prepared to take action, not just notes!

Key outcomes of this workshop include:

  • We’ll create a strategic next-steps plan for marketing your audiobook
  • Connect with at least one other author and create an action plan that will benefit you both
  • Learn how to build community by leveraging your audiobook
