I have just gotten my first VO gig, 3 months and 5 auditions after launching my business. It's a real gig that pays real money. I can hardly believe it.

Don't stop here, keep recruiting new clients.

First rule in sales...as soon as you close a sale, go make another sales call.



Second rule GTM...get the money!



Actually, you change them up however you like.



Congrats!

Thank-you all for your good wishes. I haven't actually heard anything back from the client other than they received the files. Not "that's fine" or "you suck". But had a second gig today, went back and forth, got it the way they wanted, 15 minutes ago had an email, can you just reinforce a sound-bite with these 2 lines... I've done that and need to quick get to bed before anything else happens. Are we expected to stay awake all the time in this business??

..."Are we expected to stay awake all the time in this business??" The answer is "YES"!



Unless we are in another session or not in the studio - we are the magicians. I knda like it that way - although I do find myself "in a session" a lot of the time...



Keep the throat clear, and the pipes sounding great!

Thanks Andy-- and amazingly, the 2nd and 3rd gigs followed quickly on the heels of the first.



Welcome to the board. It is a wonderful place.
