Plans for Marketing Online - Opinions please!
Hi Everyone,
Goodness me, I’ve been trying to figure out a way to introduce my thoughts/questions regarding this matter for days now. Please believe me when I say I’ve looked at most of the old posts regarding VO sites and have noticed the recent ones as well. But things are changing everyday and I'm still new to online marketing.
So, without offending or annoying anyone, I’d like to bring up the topic of Voiceover Sites… again.
I’m not a member of any of them. But I understand that part of networking these days is to market oneself more and more online. I have a website which I owe a big thanks to all the advice provided here. I have three agents, but things have been slow lately. And on my own I’ve gotten some good amount of work in anime doing Walla and bit parts. It’ll be a while before I can achieve supporting roles and leads.
While I’ve auditioned numerous times for two years, I haven’t gotten any jobs outside animation. It could be that I’m just not meant for anything else, which I wouldn’t mind if work was plentiful where I am, thought it’s not. Right now, I’m not ready to journey out to Los Angeles.
And yes, I’ve done cold calls, e-mails, mailed out CDs and have done my best to follow advice from other hard-working voice talent who have been kind enough to post here.
So, before I spend hundreds and hundreds of dollars joining VO sites. I was wondering if some folks could mention all the sites available out there and an opinion or two.
Voice123 (I know quite a lot already, but any new information would be most helpful)
Voices.com (I haven’t heard one bad thing about them yet)
VO Planet (Not much info)
VoiceHunter (Not much info)
Voicerecruiters (?)
CommercialVoices.com (Some info)
Voicemodels.com (?)
Interactive Voices (I haven’t heard much that’s good)
Creativevoices.com (A voice site from the Philippines, I know nothing else about them)
Voicestarz.com (A site geared towards animation, looks very interesting though)
Are there any others out there that I missed?
I understand I’ve probably mentioned a little more than needed in this post but I want to be super careful about my decisions this year.
For anyone who has the time to read and respond, thank you for your time.
Mary
