VOHeroes 101 2. Why become a client’s VO…hero?
Lesson 2 of 67
In Progress

2. Why become a client’s VO…hero?

At VOHeroes, our goal is to help you accomplish one thing:

We help train you to be a hero to your voice over clients.

See, your clients need your help. They have audio challenges they want you to solve: products they want you to help sell, services they need you to explain, books they need you to narrate and so much more.

And they want to know that you can not only do the work (the art of VO), but that they can trust you and rely on you to be responsible, on-time and professional in how you execute the work.

That’s how it’s done. If you can do that, you can’t help but be their hero.

And that means they’ll be more likely to rely on you in the future for their voice over work.

They might even describe you as their go-to talent, their VO person…their hero.

If you’re able to achieve that with a client, they’ll also be likely to refer you to other potential clients, and the word of mouth they use will be extremely complimentary.

It’s how I’ve been teaching voice over for years, it helps me define success, and it helps me find great coaches.

Let’s look at all that. And let’s start with a bit of history. Our history.

    Hello to All,
    I have just started to begin the course, at least I am trying but I am not able to access the 1st course. I have clicked and tried to highlight but nothing seems to work. What is it that I need to do to begin ?

      Steve – you need to post this in ProConnect, not as a comment in another course. When you do post there, please do let us know which course you’re talking about having difficulty joining.
