MTI: Non-financial VO success, relationships vs. followers, and Brené Brown on finding your people
Move Touch InspireThe Newsletter for Voice Actors and Creative Pros An Idea To Move YouWe don't talk enough about the non-monetary success in VO. But at the end of your life, I promise you you will look back at all the people... clients, peers, coaches, producers, friends, and others... and know your real success in this business and in life. Those are the real riches. A Thought to Touch You*You don't need 50,000 followers to make a living as a voice actor. You need enough of the right people to know you, trust your abilities, and think of you when they need talent. A talent with solid relationships at a dozen busy production companies is better positioned than somebody with a huge following and no connections to buyers. One is developing potential repeat business. The other is just entertaining strangers. A Quote to Inspire YouResearch professor, lecturer, and bestselling author Brené Brown on finding your best-fit people... “Fitting in is about assessing a situation and becoming who you need to be in order to be accepted. Belonging, on the other hand, doesn't require us to change who we are; it requires us to be who we are.” *This week's Thought...Is from Why "Just Post on Social Media" is HORRENDOUS VO Advice. Social media is not a complete marketing strategy for voice actors. Social media can create visibility, but visibility alone does not guarantee inquiries, bookings, repeat clients, or referrals. In this video, you’ll discover why random posting often attracts other voice actors instead of potential clients, and what to do instead. Learn how to clarify your positioning, reach the right audience, build relationships, create a path from attention to action, and measure the marketing activities that actually contribute to your voice-over business. You’ll also learn why part-time voice actors do not need to become full-time content creators to go full-time in voice-over. A sustainable career is built on focused marketing, follow-up, client relationships, and tracking meaningful business outcomes, not chasing likes and follower counts. So glad we're friends, Reader..
