A very common question I get from fellow voice talent is, "How do I use the P2P platforms to find clients?" I usually answer with another question: "WHY would you use the P2Ps to find clients?" Use the email templates at VoiceoverResources.com to help find your own clients.

@KatherineAlpen Good old fashioned direct marketing! Decide who you want to work for, craft a marketing message that appeals to them – highlighting how your skills and experience will benefit them – and find ways to get on their radar. Rinse and repeat. Best of luck!

@Voiceover So.... If you have a great agent (like me, very happy!) but want to get work from every avenue, how do you advise starting out?

Dear every Voice Talent who posts links to their Fiverr, Upwork, or Pay-to-Play, etc., profile in their social media profile or posts... You DO realize that you’re sending potential clients to a place where they can find TENS OF THOUSANDS of other people to hire, right? RIGHT?

@DblockVocals One simple solution is to direct potential clients to your own website, where you have full control of the branding and message that they’ll see.

@Voiceover What is the solution?

@muteloc Have you checked out iwanttobeavoiceactor.com? Great resource!

@Voiceover I'd love some advice on how to get a chance, to have my voice heard. I'm tired of hearing how I should be on the radio or do voiceover work. I figure it's time to give this a shot

#Voiceover Truth...

@partlowj I realize that you might not write your own headlines, but shouldn’t it be “Where there *are* bodies”? (Serious question…I’m just wondering if AP style rules have changed.)

@Voiceover What’s the major difference between the 2i2 and the 4i4?

@Voiceover If I wanted to do a quality voice recording on my iPad for a cartoon, what stuff would I need to achieve it?

@DillonWright4 Twisted Wave *does* have noise reduction...see section 7.1 here: twistedwave.com/doc/index And mics depend on too many factors for me to recommend a particular one. But you can’t go wrong with most from Neumann, Sennheiser, AKG, Synco or Røde.

@Voiceover Someone should really bring the real Audacity to iPad, because the one currently on there isn’t very good. Twisted Wave sounds promising, though I hear it doesn’t have noise reduction for background noise. Which brand of microphone do you recommend?

Last night, at the voiceover world's most prestigious awards competition – The 7th Annual The Voice Arts® Awards – I was honored to have been nominated AND WON(!) in the Outstanding Commercial Demo – Best Voiceover category. Check out the winning entry:
