So, you’re getting ready to start a new business, your voice over business. Congratulations!
You need business cards, because that’s what everyone does when they start a business, and a nifty logo because you gotta’ have one of those too, right?
How ’bout slapping that logo on some pens, maybe a case of branded coffee mugs. Mouse pads anyone?
Oh, and then there’s your website. You need one of those too but what do you call it?
“Voice and Vision?” Catchy, but sounds a bit like a singing optometrist.
“Voice In the Valley?” Nice ring to it, but could peg you as a professional yodeler.
What about one of those entrepreneurial tech names like Voicelogix,Vocaplex, Voiceinatrix? That won’t do either– unless you offer whips, boots and black leather with your sound files.
What’s a voice artist to do?

Would you like to join us? Email susan@greatvoice.com and I’ll get you the details.
That takes one less thing out of the many plates we are spinning to get noticed. Wondering how branding works for on camera.Thank you Susan. As always….very informative and assuring.
Best,

You’re welcome Ese. I’m glad you take value from it
Again, great advice! Thank you for sharing!
Jennifer – glad to hear about all the success you’re having on Audible and most importantly, enjoying the process 🙂
I am a professional musician and studio producer. Years ago while on tour, when our group would be interviewed at radio stations, I would sometimes be asked by the production staff to do some station i.d.s, or soundbites as a voiceover (not identifying myself as a music artist, but just a generic voice) They commented that I had a good voice for radio, so I wonder if sometimes I could do that on the side for a bit of extra income. I have a studio and all the production knowledge and equipment etc. already, so it would not be hard to do.
Hi Barry, that’s great you were often asked to do some station ID’s. The fact you have a studio and production knowledge is beneficial. If and when you decide to put yourself out there, feel free to reach out.
