Producing and Selling Your Own Audio Cassette (Single Tape Speaking Series)

Summary: An inexpensive, quick way to create a products that sells!
Review: "Producing and Selling Your Own Audio Cassette" will walk you through the entire audio cassette production process, from idea inception to tape completion, discussing each facet of production and sale.

While it specifically discusses spoken tapes, much of what it says also applies to musical productions. Details abound: copyright, piracy, royalties, dub masters, full-service companies versus putting the albums together yourself, and much more.

Audio cassettes can be extremely profitable as adjunct items to seminars and speeches, but they are more difficult to properly produce than one might guess. So this, our best-selling single tape, is offered to simplify and expedite that process.

What you will hear on this 60-minute tape:

* How you can produce your own audio cassettes so they sound professional, look good, and cost little.

* The three areas were audio cassettes are most profitable (and the worst topic for tapes).

* A step-by-step process for tape production.

* Where you find companies that produce affordable labels, insert cards, boxes, and albums.

* Whether it's best to duplicate your audio cassettes at home or pay a professional duplicator, and where to find them.

* When you should tape "live," at home, or in a studio.

* How you price your audio cassette singles and series, and how much discount you must give others who wish to sell them.

(You might wish to read Burgett's Empire-Building by Writing and Speaking or his Niche Marketing to see how audio cassettes are an integral part of spreading a key, core idea through many information dissemination means.)

Summary: Great old stuff
Review: Audio cassettes are a dying art, and here Burgett gives the best one-two-three synopsis of how to do it well and inexpensively that I've found anywhere. Some of his advice is a bit dated and a computerphobe will know a few shortcuts, but for the average person wanting to create a quick product, he gives it all here.

Summary: Great starter stuff
Review: Kind of a dying field but where else can a person get the starting details to help them produce their own inexpensive audio cassettes? Great starter stuff...

Summary: Disappointing. Low Quality. Low Value.
Review: Very Diappointed. Tape was obviously recorded at home (can hear doors opening and closing, papers shuffling, and a host of other sounds which can't be identified). Would have easily forgiven the made-at-home quality if the information was useful/valuable. Unfortunately, it wasn't. Instead, invest your money in a copy of "Words on Tape." Grade: D-/F+

Summary: Tapes are pesky ... but fun and profitable.
Review: When I decided that America could no longer wait to hear my spoken voice, I looked into creating a tape. Into a void... there was absolutely nothing in print.

All I knew was that having others produce them was expensive and tied me to their studio. So I dug all of the information out, used it, and found it to be the most practical, least expensive, and still professionally acceptable path. The proof: the tape you are buying!

The demise of audio cassettes was predicted 20 years ago, and every year since. It may, at last, be seeing its last days, but there is still time to get some out and sold... there will always be fans eager to slip a cassette into the car player and listen into the night...
