Since 2007, I figure I've attended some 20 voiceover conferences. Yeah...crazy isn't it? I counted it up on my fingers three times just to be sure. I'd agree with you if you think that I'm some kind of nut, or hog for punishment...but....but...my life is immeasurably blessed many times over for...
What is the mark of success for ANY organization? Many would tell you that hard numbers or accumulation of many members is important; but that doesn't tell the whole story. It's not ALL about numbers. At some point the Pareto Principle kicks in. That's the theory of the "vital few" that says...
Wednesday's #WoVOChat on the value of agents in your VO business was quite informative. We had a broad spectrum of visitors and responses. Bobbin Beam and Chuck Davis had awesome answers and leadership on this topic, and our moderator Pamela Muldoon completes the team with her organizational and...
...or do you need many? How do you get one? What should they be doing for you? What can you do for them? What is a standard commission? Those questions and more will be posed and hopefully answered by our two expert guests, and all the voice-actors attending today's hour-long TweetChat,...

Are you familiar with SlideShare? Acquired by LinkedIn not that long ago, SlideShare is an online service that lets you share your presentations. Upload or download in almost any format (Keynote, PowerPoint, etc), and share to almost anywhere. The free service is actually pretty...
Today's #WoVOChat on the topic of online casting sites, or P2P's was so full of information, and lacked any rancor. Many of the attendees from all walks of VO contributed some invaluable suggestions that bubbled over into a worthy discussion on many aspects of the subscription sites. Frustrated...
TweetChats are fun, educational, community-building events that can also get to the heart of things 140 characters at a time. At noon Pacific time today, Wed., 2-25-15 World-Voices Organization will host a TweetChat on the topic of P2P's, subscription sites, online casting sites. Call them what...
Given the high participation in almost any online discussion about online casting sites, we expect this week's #WoVOChat to be a barn-burner! In just the last week, a thread on the FaceBook Group that Terry Daniel and I administer (Voice-Over Pros) has been going on and on. The arc of such...
