Uploading Your Audiobook to Audible
If you're looking to sell your audiobook on the Audible platform, the process is a bit different:
Step 1: Create a Producer’s Account on ACX
First, you need to create a producer's account on the Audible companion website, ACX (Amazon CreateSpace Individual). This account will allow you to upload your audiobook for potential publication.
Step 2: Upload Your MP3 File
Log into your ACX account and upload your MP3 file through the provided interface. Note that your MP3 file needs to meet specific quality standards to be accepted for upload.
Step 3: Submit for Review
After uploading, you need to submit your audiobook for review by the Audible team. If it meets the standards and is approved, it will be ready for sale through the Audible app.
Step 4: Selling Your Audiobook
Once approved, your audiobook can be listed for sale through the Audible app. You can add details, pricing, and other necessary information to make your audiobook appealing to potential buyers.
