FAQ
How do you select the topics for the Furthermore Series?
We pick topics that our authors are passionate about and that we think listeners will love. It’s all about finding that sweet spot between what excites us and what will grab our audience’s interest and teach them something new.
Can you help me identify suitable content?

Whether exploring new ideas or refining existing concepts, we support you in ensuring that your content reflects your vision with clarity and impact.
What sets this format apart from traditional audiobooks?
While this audio content format is structured, it offers a more dynamic and engaging listening experience by featuring a loosely scripted presentation. This format allows for a deeper, more relaxed, and conversational exploration of topics.
Is this like a podcast?
While our loosely scripted, conversational audio content shares some similarities with podcasts, distinct differences set it apart.
• Podcasts typically follow a question-and-answer format. This content is a curated, in-depth presentation, not a Q&A or conversation. It offers a deeper dive into topics with a more focused approach, similar to the thought-provoking nature of a TED Talk, but longer.
• Our recording sessions offer the luxury of extensive editing capabilities. Whether a line is flubbed or you conceive of a better way to articulate a point, we will undertake as many retakes as needed to ensure the content meets our high standards.
What is the production process like?
Our production process is designed to deliver high-quality nonfiction audio content.
Planning & Pre-Production:
• We begin by working with you to select topics and themes that align with our audience’s interests. This involves brainstorming sessions, market research, and collaboration to outline key points rather than scripting dialogue.
Virtual Recording Sessions:
• We use virtual recording technology to facilitate seamless collaboration with us, regardless of your location. Recording sessions are entered by simply clicking a link in an email. No technical expertise is required.
• During recording sessions, we will guide the process, ensuring all topics are covered and clearly communicated. We encourage spontaneity and authenticity while maintaining focus on the intended message.
Editing and Post-Production:
• Our production team reviews the recorded sessions, addressing any technical issues, smoothing transitions, and editing to ensure clarity and coherence.
• We will master the audio to enhance the quality and may incorporate music in some sections to enrich the listening experience, depending on the nature of the content.
• Once editing is complete, we finalize the audio files and prepare them for distribution across various platforms.
Distribution and Promotion:
• Our content is distributed through our extensive worldwide network of 50+ streaming platforms, music services, and audiobook retailers.
Can we record in person?

I have a live presentation coming up. Can we record that?
