  • Episode #40: BONUS - The 5 Key Elements Every Commercial Voiceover Demo Needs
    Oct 4 2021

    Hey, there! So, I know we’re on break but we’ve had a lot of questions from you about demo production these past few months so I wanted to hop on real quick to discuss the 5 Key Elements Every Commercial Voiceover Demo Needs, especially if you’re going the DIY route. It’s important to have a clear idea of what you want and what needs to come out of the demo production process to best support your business.

    These must haves are based on the demo production method we employ when producing my voiceover demos in my business, and since my demos have played a huge part in my direct marketing efforts with clients, I wanted to share a little bit about how we make this happen on the backend.

    Be sure to sign up for the companion guide PDF I’ve created that you can read over and utilize as you get going with your voiceover commercial demos. Link below.

  • Episode #39: What VO Looks Like in 2021 - Reviewing the Hard Data
    Sep 30 2021

    In this episode we’ll be reviewing data from the 2021 state of voiceover survey. The survey offers in depth and specific information about what the VO industry looks like at this very moment. And while things change all the time, this information is super helpful for me, for you and for anyone else currently working in or interested in working in VO.

    Before we hop into the episode, we’ve created a much smaller survey with questions we have for you about your voiceover business pursuits. If you’re interested, we’d really appreciate you taking the time to fill out the survey. Link is below.

  • Episode #38: What's Luck Got to Do with it? + What's Coming Up in 2022 [The Other Mic]
    Sep 28 2021

     You may have read this episode's title and thought either: 

    1. You make your own luck, Jack!

    or 

    2. There is no such thing as luck.

    No matter which realm of thought you ascribe to, there is some pretty interesting hypothetical data in regard to luck we want to share with you today. Information that lends us to believe that the pot of gold waiting for us is one that we can help ourselves to conjure on the road to pursuing what we want.
