Growing a voice over business is all about scale, and part of scaling a business is learning to scale time. The easiest way to do this is through outsourcing. Hiring out aspects of your business that need to get done, but you, as the talent, don't specifically have to do.
But how do you decide what to outsource? That's the question Mary Anne Ivison has, and that's the question that gets answered in this episode.

Hindsight, as they say, is 20/20. With the perspective granted by hindsight, it's always interesting to take a look back into the past. Are there things you'd do differently? Lessons you wished you'd learn sooner? Decisions you might go in another direction on?
That's the question Anton Hill wanted to ask me. If I could go back to the beginning of my voice over career and have a "do over," what, if anything would I do differently? I offered a few different suggestions in this episode.

It's really easy to spend a lot of money when you're starting and growing a voice over business. Some investments are obvious. You need great coaching, great demos, a great studio and a great website. Outside of some of those necessary items, what's the next best investment a voice actor can make in their voice over business?
That's the question Terry Briscoe wanted to get answered, and I had two responses for him. Two things I wish I had learned about sooner so I could've invested in them sooner.

Marketing during the summer can feel like a real slog, and for some, even a waste of time. It's frustrating when you put in the effort to send marketing emails to new leads as well as prospects and customers only to get a vacation notice auto-responder in return.
That auto-responder is actually gift!
Ally Murphy wanted to know if it was worth it to market in the summer, and in this episode I offer up a couple of tips that can make summer marketing absolutely worth your effort.

Has this happened to you... you're sending voice over marketing emails and you reach out to a company. You get a response and that response says, "I'll forward your info to my colleague who is responsible for hiring voice actors?"
Great. Now what are you supposed to do? Is there even anything you can do? Or do you just sit back, wait, and hope for the best? That's the question Francis Cox wanted answered, and I dig into it in this episode.

AI isn't really coming anymore. It's already here and it's disrupting everything. Not just voice over. How much of a disruption remains to be seen. How long that disruption takes to have a major impact on the industry also remains to be seen.
In the meantime, what's a voice actor to do? How can we prepare ourselves and protect ourselves so that in five years, we can still be operating a successful and thriving voice over business? That's the question on the mind of James Brown and I do my best to offer an answer in this episode.
