From Script to Sound.

Producing a high-quality audiobook requires a technical bridge between author and engineer. Our VAs provide the meticulous human oversight that automated tools can't replicate.

Narrator Sourcing & Liaison

We manage the audition process. Our VAs source narrators who match your genre's tone, handle contract negotiations (PFH or Royalty Share), and act as the primary point of contact for performance directions.

Audio Quality Control

Reviewing files for room tone, peak levels, mouth noise, and mispronunciations before they ever reach Audible.

Audio Manuscript Prep

Cleaning your text for audio: removing visual cues, formatting for readability, and building phonetic guides for complex character or place names.

Distribution & Metadata

Managing ACX/Findaway uploads, optimizing categories, keywords, and ensuring your cover art meets strict pixel-per-inch requirements.

Promotional Asset Prep

Extracting engaging 30-second audio snippets for Audiograms (Headliner) to use across TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook ads.

Audio Intelligence,
Virtual Rates.

A professional audiobook takes 50+ hours of operational work. Sagedoer provides the managed technical layer that standard freelancers simply can't offer.

Managed QA Oversight

Your Production VA manages the timeline, but your Free dedicated Sagedoer Project Manager audits the audio files for consistency and quality before submission. Management is free.

Strict IP Safety

Your unpublished manuscript is your life's work. Our VAs work under strict NDAs, utilizing secure cloud storage and encrypted devices to ensure your data is never compromised.

Instant Scalability

Releasing a trilogy at once? Since you pay strictly for output hours, you can ramp up VA support for the production crunch and drop back to light maintenance mode instantly.

Production FAQs

How do you securely access my ACX or Audible account?
We prioritize intellectual property safety. We recommend using platform-native "Collaborator" permissions where available. Otherwise, we use enterprise-grade password managers like LastPass to share credentials with your VA without exposing the raw master password. All VAs work through secure company VPNs.
Can the VA help find narrators with specific accents?
Yes. Our specialized pool is trained to hunt for talent on ACX, Voices.com, and LinkedIn. Whether you need a specific regional UK accent, a deep noir voice, or multi-lingual capability, your VA will shortlist the top 5 candidates and organize their audition recordings for your review.
What is the role of the free Project Manager in production?
The PM is your lead Audio Strategist. They perform a secondary audit on the VA’s quality control logs, verify that the master files meet ACX technical specs (RMS, Peak, and Noise Floor), and act as your single point of contact for complex project changes—at zero extra cost.
Do the VAs do the actual audio engineering?
Our Coordination VAs are Operations Specialists. They manage the engineers, use tools like Descript for minor timing edits, and run automated health checks. For complex manual surgical audio cleaning (breath removal, individual wave processing), we recommend using a specialized engineer, whom your VA will then manage to ensure your deadlines are met.
