Self-Help Audiobook Narration Needed
Budget: $15 – $25 USD
I have a completed self-help manuscript (about 35,000 words) ready to be turned into an engaging audiobook. The material is upbeat and motivational, so I need a voice that carries an energetic, forward-moving tone from start to finish. No character voices or accents are required—just a confident, consistent narration that makes listeners feel fired up to take action.
You’ll record, edit, and master the audio to ACX/Findaway standards (192 kbps MP3, 44.1 kHz, RMS ‑18 dB to ‑23 dB, peak below ‑3 dB, and <0.5 s room tone at the head). I’d like clean, production-ready files delivered as one mastered file per chapter plus a retail sample. Feel free to work in Pro Tools, Adobe Audition, Audacity, or any DAW you prefer, as long as the final audio meets the specs above.
Timeline is flexible within two weeks after contract start. When you respond, please include a short sample of your voice in an energetic, motivational style—either a custom read from the attached excerpt or a relevant clip from past work—so I can hear how you fit the material.
Deliverables:
• Fully mastered chapter files (MP3, ACX compliant)
• 1-2 minute retail audio sample
• Brief log of any pickups or retakes completed
I’ll approve the final audiobook once all files pass ACX check and align with the manuscript. Looking forward to hearing your energized sound!
