Never miss an opportunity to market your audiobook! In this episode of ACX University, we’re joined by Jessica Hawkins, author of the hit audiobook Right Where I Want You, as she shares her marketing strategy from 90 days before the audiobook goes on sale, to launch day, to 90 days later. In this session, we’ll cover:
- How to turn your audiobook casting into a marketing opportunity.
- Strategies to build excitement while your book is being recorded.
- The importance of looking back at your efforts to keep what worked and tweak what didn’t.
I just completed getting my audiobook (“Hearts, Minds, and Coffee”) approved and I’m ready to market it. Unfortunately, I find that ACX does not have pricing flexibility. I am an unknown author with a lot of favorable reviews for my book. ACX wants to price it at $17.46 and won’t budge. Others have lowered their price, and when I spoke to an ACX rep, she offered no options. Can you help me. A reader would not pay $17.46 for a known author. I like the pricing flexibility I have on my paperbacks and ebooks and think Amazon is fantastic. I just don’t understand their rationale on this issue. Thank you. Kent Hinckley
