Writing a book is not an easy task, so let’s establish that upfront.

But completing the book is just the beginning. A finished book can be a powerful tool for establishing credibility, building a personal brand, and generating leads and sales. Unfortunately, many authors don’t use their books to their full potential. They may promote it through social media and book signings, but there are many other unexplored avenues for utilizing a finished book.

Never fear, my friend; read on, and let’s explore some of these avenues and help you turn your finished book into a stepping stone to success.

Create an Audio Book

Many readers today prefer listening to books rather than reading them.

By creating an audiobook version of your finished book, you can expand your audience and reach new readers. Audiobooks are also a great way to repurpose your content and create a new revenue stream. You can use platforms like ACX to find a narrator, or you can narrate the book yourself if you have a good speaking voice.
