Way back in 2009, IndieReader was one of the first companies to offer professional book reviews to small press, hybrid and self-published authors. Next up? We have added the option to review audiobooks.
Why now?
As per Jason Hamilton at Kindlepreneur, “…we listen to podcasts in our cars and at the gym, portable high-quality Bluetooth speakers are abundant and everyone is listening to audiobooks. As a matter of fact, almost half of all Americans listened to an audiobook last year and the audiobook market is nearly 3.5 billon dollars! Putting this together, the audiobook market is growing at a rate of 30% per year, which nearly quadruples the growth rate for eBooks. This is a wave you have to catch!”
For those of you who have already caught the wave and have an audiobook you’d like to have professional reviewed, you can sign up here. You’ll note that the cost of getting your audiobook reviewed is the same as for IR’s PRO Reviews (which is about half what our competitors charge).
If you have an existing book you’ve thought about turning into an audiobook, there’s no time like the present! You can find some great tips for doing so here and here.
We can’t wait to listen to your books!
