Yeah. I know. It’s a click-bait-ey title. Bear with me. This is a pretty good strategy to get your first demo going for nuthin’ but tenacity and a little work.

Oh yeah, please ask me anything via #askJMVO.

I get this question more than you know and for first timers getting into the business, it’s a pretty effective way to get a first demo done to at least show what you can do! Especially if you can find a Production/Creative Services Director who will see the value in the exchange!

How good are you at letting people know what you do? know how it works for you. Use #nametagchallenge in your posts and let me know how it works for you! I think you can add 2-3 clients a month simply by just wearing a name tag or logo’d shirt everywhere you go at anytime.

I read a recent article about the saturated #voiceover market due to newbies working for $5 and less. I don’t think it’s a rate problem. I think it’s a sales process and value proposition problem.

Here’s a talk I gave to the Tennesee Voice Over Exchange (T-VOE) on applying a Sales Process for Creatives.

I still wake up with a purpose and drive. Ideas and execution are key!

Busy day of getting the word out. Turn up the networking….

I lost my job yesterday. So now I’m an entrepreneur. They say entrepreneurship can be a roller coaster ride. So why not document it?

I recently spoke at the Tennessee Voice Over Exchange (T-VOE) on how Voice Over Actors could use an automotive-style sales process to get their rate.
