The Growing Popularity of Audiobooks


There has been a tangible growth trend in the audiobook market in the last ten years. The Audio Publishers Association points out that there has been increased demand, which has lately made audiobook sales close to $1 billion. Such a higher number of listeners opting for an audiobook over a print book can be accredited to the growth of digital platforms such as Audible, Google Play, and Apple Books, which make it easier for the consumer to avail of high-quality audiobooks at any given time with great convenience and such compelling storytelling.

This is a fantastic opportunity for writers. Beyond increased readership, a recording opens up the growing market of listeners to audiobooks. But it's not something that just happens overnight: creating an audiobook takes careful planning and execution, not to mention the actual recording. You are speaking the manuscript into audio.
