Resources

The free eBook “10 Steps to Starting your Voice Over Business” has given you ideas of the areas you should be considering for your business. The links below are organised around each section and reference products and services to help you implement those ideas.

First things First

Training to be a Voice Over and having the space and equipment to produce quality recordings is key, and should come before staring your Voice Over business. This list is not all-inclusive and there are many other great products and services. Below are items I believe can produce great results for many budgets.

It Starts with a Vision

See yourself already running your successful business. Experience every step as your customer and then as you and your team. 

Develop an Identity

Your brand is so much more than just a fancy logo. It should reflect who you are, who your business is, and how the personality and values of your company are seen by the world and how it makes people feel. Only then can you take your brand and apply it to a logo, website, social media, business cards, etc.
