Ngakolunye uhlangothi, ababalisi bangathola imali ngokufaka isicelo sokufunda ama-audiobook ngenkokhelo emisiwe. Bangase futhi bakhethe ukwabelana ngenzuzo, ngakho-ke bazozuza iphesenti lokuthengisa esikhundleni salokho.

Izindlela ezi-4 ezimangalisayo zokwenza imali ku-Audible

ubude	Izinzuzo
Ngaphezulu kwamahora angu-20	$25–35
Amahora we-10-20	$20–30
Amahora we-5-10	$15–25
Amahora we-3-5	$10–20
Amahora we-1-3	$7–10
Ngaphansi kwehora elingu-1	ngaphansi kwe-$ 7

Ngaphezu kwalokho, izinkokhelo zincike kwinkontileka:

• Kukhethekile ku-Audible/Amazon/Apple: Ababhali bazozuza u-40% wakho konke ukuthengisa.

• Okungakhethekile (thengisa nakwezinye izinkundla): Ababhali bazozuza u-25% esikhundleni salokho.

• Ababhali babelana ngemiklomelo engu-50/50 uma lokho kuyisivumelwano nomlandi/umdidiyeli.

Isiphakamiso sepro: Izincwadi ezimfishane zidayisa kahle. Abantu bathanda ukulalela okusheshayo, futhi ukufunda izincwadi eziningi ngokushesha (ngaphandle kokulahlekelwa ikhwalithi) kuzoba lula.

• Ukuhlukaniswa kweRoyalty: Esikhundleni senkokhelo yangaphambili, ababalisi bangahlukanisa amaholo nombhali. Uma incwadi ithengiswa kahle, bangathola imali eyengeziwe ngokuhamba kwesikhathi.

• Imodeli eyiHybrid (isabelo sobukhosi sihlanganisa): Ababalisi bangathola okuhle kakhulu kuyo yomibili imihlaba—imali yangaphambili kanye nesabelo sobukhosi. Nokho, kuya ngenkontileka nomnikazi wamalungelo, umbhali, noma umshicileli.
