* Marketing & Promotion Services

As a full-service “Author-driven” audiobook company, from start to finish we help create and design, produce, (record, edit, mix, master to industry standards), publish, and upload the project to Audible and Findaway Voices, reaching 40+ audiobook platforms including a host of libraries.

We treat our authors like family, knowing that the better you do,

the better we do!

Once the audiobook is created the real work has just begun.  That’s why SkyDance Mountain includes a general marketing, promotion and sales plan into our Basic Audiobook Services package.  Not much of a point in creating them if people don’t know about them or buy them.

Built into the cost is Basic Marketing & Promotion, before, during and after your audiobook is released which includes:

  • Personalized Creative Marketing & Promotion brainstorming and planning for the release and sales of your title’s audiobook.
  • Social Media announcements and updates on your platforms, (and ours) – Facebook, Linked In, Twitter and Instagram.
  • A well-crafted initial email blast announcing your title’s release as an audiobook.
  • A podcast guest interview on our newly created “Author’s on the Mountain” podcast for you to feature on your website, etc.
  • Inclusion in our online store, (currently being built), where you receive 80% of the royalties.  (They are all yours).

Our upgrade Premium package offers ongoing full-service Marketing and Promotion on 1, 3 and 6-month plans which include Audiobook Trailers and “Meet the Author” Videos.

And finally…

Always in growth mode, at SkyDance Mountain Audiobooks, we are currently:

  • Expanding our Voice Over Talent pool

One of the most important, (not to mention laborious and time consuming), jobs of an audiobook producer and author is matching the right voice with the project.  With over 2,000,000 voice actors representing over 160 countries to choose from, the task can feel nearly insurmountable.  We offer this service to our authors and publishers by carrying a select number of narrators and voice actors on our talent roster from which to choose.

  • Building an online store, (specializing in Equine/horse books, Personal Growth & Inspiration, Mountain Living, and the Spirit of the West), and offering an affiliate program for our authors and publishers.  It is non-exclusive, and provides yet another way to reach more readers and listeners. 
  • Stay tuned for more exciting announcements to come!…
