1 Connect with your fans

One of the main benefits of creating an audiobook of your memoir as a musician is that you can connect with your fans on a deeper level. You can use your voice, tone, and emotion to convey your personality and passion for your craft. You can also add music, sound effects, and other elements to enhance your narration and create a more immersive experience for your listeners. By sharing your story in your own voice, you can build trust, loyalty, and engagement with your fans.

2 Expand your reach

Another benefit of creating an audiobook of your memoir as a musician is that you can expand your reach to new audiences. Many people prefer listening to audiobooks over reading printed or digital books, especially when they are busy, commuting, or multitasking. By offering an audiobook version of your memoir, you can tap into the growing market of audiobook consumers, who are estimated to spend over $1 billion on audiobooks in 2020. You can also leverage the popularity of podcasts, which are similar to audiobooks in format and delivery, and attract listeners who are interested in music, entertainment, or personal stories.

3 Increase your income

A third benefit of creating an audiobook of your memoir as a musician is that you can increase your income from your book sales. An audiobook can be a valuable addition to your product portfolio, as it can generate more revenue than a print or ebook version. According to a report by the Audio Publishers Association, the average price of an audiobook in 2019 was $17.31, while the average price of an ebook was $10.81. Moreover, an audiobook can have a longer shelf life than a print or ebook, as it can be updated, repackaged, or bundled with other products or services.

4 Showcase your creativity

A fourth benefit of creating an audiobook of your memoir as a musician is that you can showcase your creativity and skills as an artist. An audiobook is not just a transcription of your written words, but a creative project that requires planning, production, and distribution. You can use your artistic vision and talent to craft a unique and compelling audiobook that reflects your style and brand. You can also collaborate with other musicians, narrators, or producers to create a high-quality and professional audiobook that stands out from the crowd.

Budget constraints are often cited as the reason for not creating big productions. If you already own the rights to your work and are able to weave it through your book, you will have created a unique experience for your listener and an exciting moment for your fans.

Audiobook production is not as easy as reading into your phone. You need specialist recording equipment and (importantly) an acoustically treated space to ensure you make a quality product. Narration can be gruelling and it isn't a get rich quick scheme. A #HumanVoice - your voice - will bring more fans to your site Despite its apparent ease do not be tempted to use a virtual voice - they are still being trialled and may do more damage to your reputation than not having an audiobook at all. Speak to people and find out what you don't know. Speak to any audio engineer and they will explain how and why music production and audiobook production is not the same. Hire experts to do what you can't and create a quality product you are proud of

I'm simply a fan of Audio books, whether you are a musician or anybody else. The fact that I could listen to a book while I was commuting to work, or jogging by the waters, or even when doing my kitchen tasks, became a huge advantage for me. For years I was frustrated, because finishing a book took forever, as I was mostly far too tired when I finally reached my bed. And even if I managed to grab the book, I would usually fall asleep before completing more than a page. Not to mention, that most of the time, I didn't remember what happened up to that point. With Audio, you can find almost everyday at least SOME time to listen. You can run it faster or slower, and can repeat listening to a certain spot, if you feel you didn't get it all.
