When it comes to building out your home voice over studio, you've got a lot of options and a lot of decisions to make. It doesn't take long before you could easily spend $10,000 or more. But... do you need to?
"Uncle Roy" Yokelson is my Studio Guru. He's also a great coach and he's produced two award nominated demos for me. When it comes to tech, editing, acoustics and all that jazz, he's the one I go to for answers.
In this episode he busts some myths, addresses peer pressure and offers some great advice on the microphone and interface you actually need versus what you may think you need or others may be pressuring you to want!

If you have children at home, at some point in time it's entirely likely they'll express an interest in voice over. At the very least, they're going to go into your booth and play with the microphone! Maybe one of your kids had already auditioned, or better yet... booked! Could a career in voice over be in the cards for them?
Susan Glow is the mom of Cassie and Sabrina Glow... award winning kids voice actors with credits that would make any professional voice actor jealous. In this episode, I talk to Susan about how she's managed her girls careers. We discuss everything from training and demos to managing money, investing back in the business, winning awards and keeping balance in their lives.

If your voice over demos are your most important marketing tool (and I believe they are), then the player you use to display those demos and make them playable should be pretty close to the top of the list of other vital tools. For me, my player of choice is VoiceZam.
In this episode I chat with VoiceZam founder Bob Merkel and ask him questions that will help users get the most out of their player, whether you're using the base player or any of the add-ons VoiceZam offers. You're going to learn tips and tricks for using VoiceZam you probably weren't previously aware of!

If you speak more than one language, you have even more value you can add to your clients as a Multilingual Voice Actor, if you market yourself and your services accordingly.
There's a lot to consider. Multiple demos, how to build out your website, whether or not to maintain multiple social media accounts for different languages. There are a lot of decisions to make and strategies to consider.
Nicky Mondellini speaks five languages and offers voice over services in three of them, including English, Spanish and Italian. I chat with her about the ins and outs of running a business and handling marketing as a multilingual talent.

Want to get the most out of your VO Atlanta 2022 experience? There are strategies you can use to make that happen.
VO Atlanta is the largest industry event of it's kind and every year it loads the schedule with over 200 hours of learning from some of the best coaches, producers, mentors and teachers the industry has to offer.
In this episode I interview VO Atlanta Executive Producer Gerald Griffith. We talk about why the conference is ending, what happened in 2020, how to get the most out of your conference experience, and we discuss the one area many voice actors seem to overlook that Gerald thinks deserves a little more attention.

Do you do vocal warmups each day or before your sessions? Are you really doing anything to protect your voice? Have you ever even thought about the importance of protecting your voice or even taking basic care of your voice?
For many voice actors, vocal care is something we don't think of until we need it, and sometimes when we need it, it can already be almost too late!
In this episode, Vocal Coach Nic Redman offers up plenty of insights into the basics of vocal care including things like warmups, caring for your voice when you're sick, preparing for sessions and more.

Do you want to learn how to grow a successful YouTube channel?
It's hard to believe YouTube has been around for 20 years. Even after two decades, it's still giving people a platform to grow an audience, get discovered, earn money and share their message with the world.
But, like using any other social media platform to build brand recognition and market your voice over business, there are algorithms to consider and strategies that can mean the difference between videos potentially seen by thousands or videos seen by basically no one.
If you're planning to include YouTube in your business, Hunter Peterson has tips that will help you grow your channel and get your videos viewed.
