The Voice Actor’s SURVIVAL Guide to Direct Marketing

from VO Pro: The Business of Voice Over and Voice Acting · host Paul Schmidt

Marketing directly to prospects as a voice actor can feel like standing on a diving board, staring into the deep end, and wondering if there’s a shark or a nuclear bomb in the water.  You’ve probably heard about cold emailing and thought, “That’s just spam, right?” Or maybe the idea of bothering someone with an unsolicited email gives you flashbacks to awful networking mixers where everyone exchanges business cards and fake smiles.  I get it—cold emailing feels like uncharted territory for a lot of voice actors.  But here’s the truth: it’s how I built my 6-figure VO business.
