Summary

Leeanna Morgan, a bestselling author from New Zealand, has successfully leveraged ElevenLabs' AI narration technology to transform her novels into audiobooks, significantly reducing production costs and time. Initially deterred by the high cost of traditional audiobook production, Morgan turned to ElevenLabs, which allowed her to produce 21 audiobooks while saving over NZ $147,000. The platform's flexibility in adjusting narration elements like accent and speed enabled her to create high-quality audiobooks quickly, leading to increased sales and a new income stream. Additionally, Morgan's positive experience with AI narration inspired her to develop "The AI Audiobook Creator Course," designed to help other authors navigate the process of creating AI-narrated audiobooks, thus broadening the accessibility of this technology to more writers.
