Voiceover Consulting - Getting Started In Voiceovers
Are you looking to get started in voiceovers? Wondering how to record your voice, make demos, and create a VO business? Curious about how to find voice work? After 15 years of being a professional voiceover guy, many folks ask me questions about the industry. Yes, it often starts as people saying you have a good voice. But there is MUCH more to it than “just reading into a microphone”. There is practicing, coaching and training, setting up recording gear and a studio or recording space, making demos, finding voice work, creating a business with invoices, websites, and marketing…TONS of marketing. Before jumping headfirst into extensive coaching programs and expensive gear, let’s get you oriented with a voiceover consulting session to help get you started on your voiceover journey!
Voiceover Know-How To Get You To The Starting Line
I was in the same boat years ago. After a decade in the Air Force, I started working as a radio meteorologist, and then as a radio ski reporter for Snocountry (more about me here). Both of these jobs introduced me to the broadcasting world and I learned how to record and produce radio forecasts and reports. One of my broadcast friends mentioned voiceover work. And then it began.
It took me many weeks and months of research before a transition to doing voice work from home. After a while, I eventually landed jobs for many recognizable brands, such as AAA, Nationwide, Nikon, and McDonald’s. But I made some rookie mistakes – some of which likely cost me work. There are many opportunities to start a VO career if you take the right steps. My consultations will help you make sense of everything and to help steer you in the right direction in the VO industry.
