Marketing Your Audiobook in a New Era: Leveraging AMPlify Audiobooks to Build Sales, Community & Impact
Audiobooks aren’t just a format anymore—they’re a movement. And if you’re an indie publisher or author, you have more power than ever to shape how your audiobook reaches listeners… and how much you earn from it.
Join Becky Parker Geist, founder of Pro Audio Voices and AMPlify Audiobooks, for a dynamic, strategy-packed workshop. Becky will show you how to market your audiobook using new tools as of 2026.
This isn’t about chasing algorithms. It’s about building real relationships and sustainable revenue. In this session, you’ll learn how to:
Create a Smart, Sustainable Audiobook Marketing Plan
Walk away with a clear, customized marketing framework for your audiobook—plus a practical next-steps action list to rocket your marketing forward. Whether you’re launching your first audiobook or expanding your catalog, you’ll leave with clarity on your best next steps.
Leverage a Small Following into an Engaged Community
You don’t need a massive audience. You need connection. Learn how to turn a modest email list, social following, or local fan base into an engaged community of listeners who feel invested in your work.
Get Strategic About Your Audio Content
Audiobooks and podcasts aren’t separate silos—they’re powerful tools that can support each other. Becky will guide you through how to think strategically about your audio assets. Should you have your own podcast or be a guest on others’ podcasts—and how to leverage either or both? How can your audio content deepen reader loyalty and extend your brand?
This workshop is ideal for indie publishers and authors who:
• Want more control over their audiobook pricing and promotions
• Care about building long-term listener relationships
• Are ready to market with intention instead of overwhelm
• Believe ethical, human-centered distribution matters
Becky brings decades of experience in publishing and audiobook production—and a bold vision for transforming the industry to better serve creators. Expect actionable strategy, inspiring ideas, and plenty of “aha” moments. If you’ve been wondering how to make your audiobook marketing more effective, more connected, and more aligned with your values… this workshop is your next right step. Let’s build something bigger than a launch. Let’s build a community.

- A clear, step-by-step audiobook marketing plan — plus immediate next actions to accelerate results
- A strategic framework for using audiobooks and/or podcasts to achieve your publishing goals
- Practical ways to turn a small following into an engaged, loyal listener community
