Two weeks ago on the podcast, the discussion was around mindset, and the importance of getting your thoughts and attitudes in check.

A week ago, it was all about goals and how to set better goals for 2021.

This week, I'm introducing the secret sauce for success. Once your mindset is right and your goals are set, you're ready for the final piece of the success puzzle. That missing link is accountability.

I get it... 2020 didn't go as planned. Not for you, not for me, not for any of us. Not just in voice over, either. Most of the world probably feels the same way.

The question now becomes, how long will you hold onto this 2020 narrative and are you going to let it bring you down in 2021 if things don't change and we're still living in a pandemic... which we will be!

In this episode, I'm sharing what I believe will be one of the single most important aspects of ensuring next year is better than this year.

Will you be paid immediately upon delivering audio? Or will it be 15 days? Maybe 30 days?

Unless you're setting payment terms with your clients, when you actually get paid may always be a mystery.

In this episode I discuss generally accepted terms, how to set your own, and what to include in your invoice to make sure you're always getting paid.

What is an extra charge and what is just providing great customer service?

Sometimes you need to think about the lifetime value of a client, and whether or not you're willing to risk that by nickel and diming them over every last request.

The audition part is easy... but what the heck do you write in that proposal box that goes with it?

All the major casting sites give you the opportunity to submit a proposal along with your audition. Though many of them may not get read, I do think there are ways to strategically use that space to increase your chances of getting short-listed (provided your actual audition is good).

In this episode I share tips of writing better proposals.

One area of voice over that is often overlooked, but has the potential for growth courtesy of COVID is in the Real Estate market. More specifically in real estate virtual tour narration. 

Many realtors are already creating virtual tour videos. Not many of them are adding voice over... yet! It's something a lot of realtors have never considered before. Part of your job will be to educate them on the service and the value it can add to their tour videos.
