Through other audiobook retail platforms, the majority of your purchase goes to the retailer, publisher, and distributor – leaving the author with pennies, if anything.
In the best case scenario, the author may earn 35% of your purchase, and often the author earns nothing at all.
Your Purchase on AMPlify Audiobooks™ Has Impact
You can help authors earn a living from their work!
AMPlify Audiobooks™ authors always earn at least 65% royalties on each purchase — no hidden fees or fine print or secret “factors” applied.
Over time, we plan to increase that percentage.
Publishing a book independently typically takes years of effort and thousands of dollars.
Besides the time and effort required to write a great story, there’s the additional cost of editing, layout design, cover design, audio production, marketing and more.
On other retail channels, authors have little or no say in the price their audiobook is sold at.
They also can’t control if their audiobook is given way for free. AMPlify Audiobooks™ lets authors choose their sale price, and decide if and when they want to give free copies or discounts.
So, shouldn’t authors earn the greatest share from sales?
We think, YES!
Authors earn more using a direct sale option, rather than relying on well-known retailers to give them a fair share.
But, delivering an audiobook is far more complex than delivering a book, or an ebook. You can’t just put an audiobook in the mail!
Audiobooks require an app to provide a good listening experience.
We decided to help those talented people, who just want to write, create, and easily share their message with the world.
Daily we speak with authors striving to make a living from writing, and we want to help make that a possibility.
