Finding New Sales With Audio Products
People are hungry for “how to” programs, motivational programs, personal coaching programs, and “just give me the quick answers” programs to help solve their daily problems. We’ve been listening to you and other clients talk about wanting to find new ways to make more money from your current body of work, well now’s the time to take your content digital! Once produced you can sell them off of your website or your merchandise table at a lecture or seminar. These products would be your special “in-house” merchandise and Not Available In Stores!
The key to making these digital promotional spots and products work for you are (1) keeping the cost down, (2) making them available to you in small quantities, and (3) providing a high-quality product. Can we do this? Yes we can!
We offer high quality production services to help you create audio that will be sought after in a wide variety of platforms. Audio content can be 60-second sound bits or 50 minute long ‘talks’. We utilize the latest in computer technology to help you set-up and record your content from the comfort of your own home. Then we will produce your raw content into a finished product that can be set-up for Internet streaming or CD production.
The Production Steps
Obviously, to have a new product some work will have to be done on your end. The concept and material you’ll use most likely already sits on your desk. The first task will be to outline your program or spots and gather your words. Then you’ll have to record. We can help get you set up to do this to achieve quality results. The recording when finished should then be “produced” into separate audio tracks, with some nice bookend music and perhaps a narrator introduction. The end result will be your master CD, which we will send to you in the mail. This content is also uploaded to our streaming Internet servers and you are given linking information. For longer programs that you may wish to sell, we can reproduce into CDs, create packaging and CD labels and finally cellophane wrap for sale.

Creating The Tangible Product
Interestingly enough, 71% of audio books are unabridged readings of text so if this is what you’d simply like to do – as long as you have the audio rights to your published work – you can start recording today. But if you have more flair for the dramatic and want to pump people up a’la a Tony Robbins’ free-form speaking style, you’ll need to create your program’s concept and speaking roadmap. You can also create a program from seminars or workshops that you have either recorded on audio or video. (Want to produce a DVD product? We can do that too! Please inquire.) With the recording in our hands, we’ll put out a quality product.
Next comes the packaging design – one of our true specialties. If you have a flair for design, we can provide you a template outline so you can create your own box and CD art. Of course, we would be happy to create the design for you. Our fee for packaging design is $299.
Lastly, you’ll add on your per unit cost:
