Audiobooks reach a different, fast-growing audience — and a few tactics work especially well.
What works for audio
- Share a sample clip. A short, well-chosen audio snippet sells the narration far better than a description.
- Cross-promote from the ebook. Mention the audiobook in the ebook's back matter and on your author page.
- Use one link. Point everyone to your Universal Book Link, which routes listeners to their preferred audio store.
- Email your list on release day.
Reviews and ranking
Ask listeners for honest reviews — see getting reviews. Audio reviews are scarcer, so each one counts more.
Quality is marketing
With audio, the narration is the product — a clean, well-paced recording earns word of mouth. See the recording guide. For the basics of publishing one, see how to upload an audiobook.
