On one hand, you want to keep your network private because you're tired of other voice actors swooping in and poaching all the leads you've worked hard to find.
On the other hand, you want to keep your network public because you know it makes you more easily discoverable by people who may benefit from your voice over services.
So what's a voice actor to do? That's exactly what I'm talking about in this episode of the podcast.

We've all got a thousand excuses for not using social media as often as we should. One of the main ones is because we claim we have nothing to share.
I'm calling you out on that one. We ALL have something to share.
In this quick hit episode, I'm going to spark some creative juices for you and give you tips on exactly what you can share on social media.
Oh, and for what it's worth... there's more to social media than booth selfies! ;)

Right now, LinkedIn is one of the best places you can be spending your time when it comes to marketing your voice over business. It's a place where people are still active and engaging every single day. Professionals looking to connect with professionals for professional opportunities.
Even in a pandemic!!
When you're making connection requests on LinkedIn, one of the most important elements is the Personal Note and far too many voice actors are using this feature. Don't be lazy. Don't forget. Don't make excuses. If you want to improve your results on LinkedIn, it starts with this one feature!

Welcome to the Summer Series... which is explained more in depth in this episode.
The idea behind the summer series is simple... quick hit episodes with a singular focus that you can consume in a short amount of time while still drawing high value, and giving me a little bit of a break for the summer.
In the first episode of the Summer Series I discuss how I came to this decision... let's talk about burnout!

We're all getting tired of talking about COVID-19. We're all getting tired of answering the question, "how are you doing?" or, "how are you feeling?"
We need a new narrative.
We also need to be able to stay top of mind with voice over leads, prospects and clients without sounding tone deaf and still sounding relevant. That's what this episode is all about. Giving you a few new questions to try instead of the same old, same old.

In the last episode of the podcast (Is the Sound You're Selling Worth Buying? - Episode 063) we talked about Source Connect and the rise of the home studio. First you need to get your sound right before you're ready to start offering up Source Connected sessions.
Now that you've done that (I hope), it's time to talk about what's next... the actual directed session. It's something that is feared by many voice actors for countless reasons. After you listen to this episode, hopefully your fears will be calmed and you'll feel a little more confident heading into those directed voice over sessions where you need to put Source Connect to work for you.
