Hey all, I finally read the fine print on my contract for last year's VOICE 2007. So I have created a two CD set of my 3-hour presentation during VOICE 2007 - "The Art and Science of Self-Evaluation: Do you have what it takes to make Big Money with your voice?"

It comes with a 16 page workbook and is now available on my website. http://www.voiceover-talent.com/CityHome.htm

It offers insight on some of the tools required to be successful as a professional voice over talent, covering four key elements:

• Talent: You need to know if your "voice" is in demand. Can you hear where you are in the spectrum from "good" to "not so good.?" Do you know if you have something unique and special that grabs people by the ear. It's a combination of your natural ability and acting know how.

• Business: You need to know that you can actually run an office, negotiate rates and get invoices sent out. Follow up, due diligence, customer relationship management (CRM). Do you need the security of a regular paycheck?

• Marketing: Marketing is a major part of voice over career. Market yourself by following up, meeting new contacts, and advertising your services. Do you know how to do this? Do you hate to do this?

• Technology: In today's world, technology places a large role in how voice talent do business. Are you comfortable with hardware and software and cables and acoustics?

The formula for success is simple: "Find the people who want to buy what you have to sell." But first you have to know what you have to sell. You have to know how to approach the people who want to buy it. Then you need to create something to give then that shows them that they want you.

This CD set will step you through these basics and is great for a broad range of people - the wannabe, the newbie, the part-timer looking for extra income, or the pro looking for new markets. It is not about acting, but about understanding IF you can act. Understanding IF you have what it takes. Do you have the ability to evaluate your strengths and limitations.

At this point I am gauging interest in the product and still working on final packaging, so the CD's will be lovingly created individually and carefully packaged in paper sleeves with the workbook stapled and three-hole punched by my own two hands.
