The acceleration phase of the third edition of FuturED, the accelerator of the CDP Venture Capital SGR National Network, is in full swing with dynamic meetings between our partners. The selected startups, over the course of these weeks, are continuing to meet partner companies to analyze how to improve their products and strategies. In the second meeting Gruppo Mondadori, a leader in editorial content, has shared its vast experience and latest experiments with new technologies, particularly in podcasts and audiobooks. The startups have then showcased their AI-based solutions, customizing them to meet Mondadori's needs.

We at Stage2Startups heard you. One of the feedbacks about our book The Legal Side to Starting a Business was “Everyone creates an audiobook version of a book. Why you don't have it?” On the other hand, another person said: “Are you using AI to enhance the performance of your business?” And then we thought “What if we combine these two things in one?” That's exactly what we did. We created our 1st ever-Stage2Startups Audiobook for the Legal Side to Starting a Business book. We used the narration by Google AI through the Google Play Books platform. It is impressive how you can choose the narrator's voice - man or woman, age, tone, speed. And even assign different voices to different characters. The result? You can check directly in our Audiobook, available now at Google Play Store here: https://lnkd.in/efFye4dX We hope you enjoy the book in its new format as much as we did.

"In all three of these instances—podcasting hosting, podcast consumption, and audiobooks consumption—my colleagues and I were told to tread carefully, to explore other avenues, to respect the No Trespassing sign. This advice came from people who had worked in these respective industries for a long time, and whose perspectives were often skewed by their familiarity with the status quo. Their view: The incumbents have too broad an existing user base, too much brand recognition, and too strong an incentive to defend their strongholds for a challenger to disrupt them. I can’t help but disagree. I’ve come to learn through first-hand experience that monopolies often serve as the ideal competitor to take on. There are four main reasons why: Monopolies have already proven the industry is viable and lucrative Monopolies refuse to cannibalize their own dominance Monopolies have institutionalized their inefficiencies Monopolies have the most to lose from making mistakes, whereas startups have the most to gain" https://lnkd.in/gqJsnZZn

Inc. 500 CEO | Author, “The Startup Lottery”, a comprehensive career guide for startup employees | #1 Amazon Best Seller and "Top New Release" | Harvard MBA and 30-Year Startup Veteran| Nonprofit Board Member
After more than 30 hours "in the closet", I have finished recording the audiobook for my recently published book, The Startup Lottery. Phew!!! I can honestly say that I'm tired of hearing the sound of my own voice! The book will be up on Audible VERY SOON, right after it clears a quality review by the team at ACX. Stay tuned for the release announcement and check out the print book listing on Amazon - https://lnkd.in/eQRiGyQB I had numerous proposals to help me produce the book ranging from $500 to $9,000. It was an incredible learning experience, and with some expert help and guidance, I was able to produce the book, including equipment, for under $1,000! My audio engineer and new friend Eric Carstensen (ericvoiceover), whom I contracted with through Fiverr, has been an amazing sherpa throughout the process. Thank you Eric for patiently and methodically walking me through all of the steps from: - what not to record (all the supplementary materials including the charts and tables from the book are available for review and download at: https://lnkd.in/db6wikG3) - what mic to get (Blue Yeti) - where to record (my bedroom closet) - how to set up the room (with acoustic panels on all flat wall services) - how to set up the mic (monodirectional setting with gain and volume recos) - tips for recording (talk to my clothes, keep a consistent distance from the mic, make sure the HVAC system is off, and learn how to "punch and roll") When I released The Startup Lottery, it hadn't occurred to me to do an audiobook, but enough people asked me if I had one that it seemed a good idea. I wondered if I should hire a voice actor and was told I had a good voice for narration (and a good face for radio!) 😀 I'm glad I did it. And I'm glad I'm done! Check out the audiobook when you have a spare 8-1/2 hours! #thestartuplottery #audiobooks #startups #

🎉 I'm months away from publishing my book. Add your email on the link below to be the first to know when I announce it. 💡 The book is for innovators! Founders, pre-founders, product/tech leaders, inventors, researchers, VCs, Accelerators/Startup Studios, etc. Anyone who has an idea to create or improve a business, product, service, or program. To publish a book, there are six or seven phases after you have the manuscript (development editing, line editing, typesetting/layout, cover design, proofreading, revision, etc.). Then you have a book that's read to be reviewed by friends. After another round of revision, you publish it (print, Kindle, Audible). This process takes 12-16 weeks after the manuscript is ready. My best guess right now is that it'll be ready to order by Nov-Dec of this year. Add your email address: https://lnkd.in/dFh9ypn9

How I Worked with a $100+ Million Startup? 🤯 It was just another day on LinkedIn when I stumbled upon a post from an intriguing startup, Kukufm. They were looking for partners, and as the founder of Efficacy Media, diving into unique content projects is what fuels my passion. Kukufm, valued at a whopping $120 million, is revolutionising India's audiobook and audio series scene. I felt we had something valuable to offer. So, with determination, I drafted that first email, hoping for a chance. I didn't expect what followed! Our content writing and translation services resonated with their vision, and soon we were in discussions. Our shared pursuit of excellence led to a partnership that exceeded expectations. Working with Kukufm on their audiobook projects showcased how seizing opportunities can lead to great things. It's not every day that an email turns into a partnership with an energetic startup, but it proves that sometimes the ideal clients are just a message away. In the world of content creation and innovative platforms, these unexpected moments redefine success stories. Here's to seizing opportunities and creating new chapters! Remember, every connection has the potential to change the game. Who knows where that next email or LinkedIn message might take us? Exciting journeys await when we take that leap and reach out. So, send that mail! Send that LinkedIn message! You never know what's waiting for you 🚀 #business #socialmediamarketing #linkedinforbusiness #successstory #startup
