Ep 215How to Grow Your Voice Over Business by Outsourcing with Brigid Reale
There's only so much we can do in a day. Which means there's only so far we can grow our voice over business on our own. Eventually, we either plateau or make a decision to start finding help. That's what this episode is all about... finding help. Growing your team can take a lot of different forms, and you might be surprised to find how easy and affordable it is to get a little extra help. Even if it's just a few hours a week. That can still make a big difference in your business. Brigid Reale is one third of the ownership team behind VA for VO and in this episode she deep dives into what it's like to work with a virtual assistant or a freelancer, how to set that relationship up for success, and what kind of things you might consider getting help with. All that and more.

Ep 212How to Create Viral Social Media Content with Christopher Tester
For many voice actors, the biggest deterrent keeping them from embracing social media for their voice over marketing efforts is content creation. How do I come up with ideas? What do I post about? Is all the effort to create content even worth it? Will it lead to actual paid voice over work? Christopher Tester has embraced content creation as a big part of his marketing strategy and the result has been viral posts. TikTok posts reaching hundreds of thousands of views, and LinkedIn content generating continued engagement five days a week. And yes... it's lead to paid voice over bookings. In this interview, we dive into creation strategies and choosing content pillars, workflows, how to choose the right platform and so much more.

Ep 213How to Manage Your Voice Over Business Using VoiceoverView with Dani States
VoiceoverView is a tool that's been around since 2017, but a lot of voice over still doesn't exactly understand what is it or how much it can do for their businesses. In this interview with CEO Dani States, she talks about where the idea for VoiceoverView came from, and how she created a business management tool for voice actors created by a voice actor.

Ep 211The Tools I Use for Podcasting and Livestreaming
Two major aspects of my content strategy are podcasting and livestreaming. I've been hosting the Everyday VOpreneur Podcast since 2019 and I've been livestreaming probably almost as long with Free Advice Friday, originally on Facebook and now on YouTube. This week I wanted to share some of the tools that help make that happen, as I'm asked about it often.

Ep 205The Importance of Accountability with Jennifer Antkowiak
I've often said Accountability is the secret sauce for a successful business. When you have all the other tools and resources you need, the voice over demos, the home studio, great coaching and a stellar website, accountability can be the missing ingredient that helps push you to the next level. You need a system in your business to make sure you #DoTheThing. Jennifer Antkowiak is currently part of three different accountability groups, and has participated in others in the past. She's been a leader and a member. She's got plenty of great advice to offer on how to build accountability into your work routines.

Ep 201The Success Journey of an Everyday VOpreneur with Eli Schiff
What does success look like for an Everyday VOpreneur? How do you define it? Then, once you've defined it, how do you get there? Eli Schiff recently shared a little of his journey in the VOpreneur Facebook Group and I was inspired by it. So much so that I immediately reached out to him and asked for an interview. To often, I think we have a distorted view of success and the success journey, courtesy of social media and a daily barrage of posts from our friends and colleagues whom all appear to be crushing it. After you listen to this interview, I hope you'll give yourself a little bit of a break and a little bit of grace.

Ep 197Getting to Know NAVA with Tim Friedlander
What is NAVA (National Association of Voice Actors), and why should you be paying attention? In the last few weeks you've likely seen posts about NAVA popping up all over social media. Odds are, it's left you with a lot of questions. What is it? What do they do? What's in it for me? Why should I join? Do we need another association, etc? In this episode I sit down with NAVA Founder and President Tim Friedlander and ask him all the questions people have been asking me about NAVA, and a few others that were on my mind. I'm confident by the end of this episode you'll have a much clearer picture of what NAVA is, and I'm guessing you're going to want to join.

Ep 196-Answering Questions about Fi-Core with Lisa Ristau
To join the union or not to join the union? For some voice actors, that is the question. But maybe it doesn't have to be. Because, maybe you could go Fi-Core (Financial Core) and have the best of both worlds. The ability to record union voice over work, but not have to give up any of the bread and butter non-union work that keeps many of us in the booth day-to-day. Lisa Ristau is a very successful agent and the owner of Impressive Talent. She agreed to share some of her insights, wisdom and perspective as an agent on the subject of Fi-Core. If you've got questions or concerns, hopefully they'll be addressed in this interview.

Do you have any voice over adjacent skills you could offer (and trust me, you do... you'll see in this episode).

Ep 193How to Keep Your Emails Out of Spam with Brad Newman
Writing voice over marketing emails is hard enough of a task on it's own without having to worry about whether or not those emails are ever actually landing in the inbox of the desired recipient. There are things you can do when writing emails to help keep them out of the dreaded spam folder and get them into the inbox. Some of the red flags are a bit technical, but many of them are content related. It could be as matter of simply changing your subject line or cleaning up your email signature. In this episode, Brad Newman of Upper Level Hosting does a great job of breaking it all down, and doing it in the least technical way possible. At the end of the interview, he even introduces a tool that will help you check the score of your email address.

Ep 192How to Protect Your Business from Cyber Threats with Reid Montague
We all think that cybersecurity breaches won't happen to us. That's stuff that only happens to big corporations and other people. Here's the thing... is it worth the risk to just assume you'll always be safe? I don't think so.

Doing that... protecting yourself from cyber threats, can actually be easier than you might realize.

Ep 1905 Tips for Online Casting Success
After interviewing CEO's from four of the major online casting sites, it became clear there were a few issues that are universal, regardless of whether it's on Voice123, bodalgo, CastVoices or VOquent.

In this episode, I reflect on five of the themes that came up in each on my interviews. Simple things that can be fixed easily, and make a potentially big difference in a voice actors audition to booking ratio.

Ep 188An Interview with Miles Chicoine of Voquent
Voquent is a site you've maybe never heard of it before. At least, not if you're a North American voice actor. The site is based in the UK, and it works much differently from other online casting platforms. There are no membership fees, and no job posting board. But there are opportunities to book great work with great clients. After you finish this interview with Voquent CEO and Co-founder Miles Chicoine, I have a feeling you'll be wanting to set up your profile, if you haven't gone one created already.

Ep 177Understanding Voice Over Casting Timelines - Summer Series 2022
When you submit an audition on a casting site or through an agent, it's reasonable to assume it's for an active project and the voice actor will be hired "soon." Like... the next day. Maybe the next week at most. And so many VO's obsessively check their casting profiles and inboxes waiting for the email to come that says they've booked. This is a great way to make yourself crazy, and it isn't necessarily an accurate reflection of voice over casting timelines. In this episode, I share a few thoughts that will hopefully help you relax, stress a little less and enjoy the audition process a little more. -- Welcome to the Summer Series.

Ep 176Is Complaining Online Costing You Work - Summer Series 2022
The social media soapbox... a lot of voice actors take "advantage" of social media to create a platform to air their grievances. Rarely does a day go by that someone isn't complaining about rates, jobs, casting sites, auditions, agents or any other number of things. But is complaining online the best use of social media?
