Audiobook Distribution for Independently Published Authors: A Complete Guide

Getting your audiobook produced is only half the equation. Where you distribute it determines how many people can find it, listen to it, and buy it. Most independently published authors start with Audible for good reason. Audible is the world's largest audiobook platform with over 40 million listeners. But Audible isn't the only place your listeners are, and the decision you make about distribution at the moment of submission will affect your royalties and your reach for years to come. This guide covers every major audiobook distribution platform, how to get on each one, the royalty structures you need to understand, and how to make the right distribution decision for your specific book and audience.
