How to make it work in your voice over business.
Everybody's favorite voice over business coach, and prolific YouTube trainer -- Bill DeWees -- is finally getting out 'n' about. Bill and I are both introverts. Seriously. And besides being uncomfortable in the limelight, Bill is just always working. The guy is busy because he lives what he...
Oh, the biases voice actors have against Pinterest! "It's just for people to share recipes." "I'm not looking to buy shoes today!" "Who cares about what Jennifer Lawrence wore to the Oscars." OK, yes, Pinterest is guilty of all those stereotypical statements, and yes, it's dominated by the female...
Here they come: all the studies, the research, the survey results offering a crystal ball look into Social Media marketing for this new year. I'm going to list two or three of the top articles published in just the last few days from some well-regarded online sites, but, really, anyone can find...

At NMX (The New Media Expo Conf) the other day, I heard Michael Hyatt speak about branding. He's the Chairman and former CEO of Thomas Nelson Publishers...a prolific thinker, blogger, and speaker. He offered a multi-point plan for developing your personal brand, and two of them really stuck with...
Just two days ago, I pointed readers here to the blog of my friend Derek Chappell. There, a guest blogger -- John Lano -- used some advice from several voice actors to compose a two-parter on the use of Social Media for voice-actors. In part one, I was honored to be asked about my...
