This episode, I am DELIGHTED to have accomplished Voice Actor and entrepreneur, Dani States, on the podcast to talk about running a voiceover business, how imperative auditioning is, and how to keep track of all of it in the Voiceoverview app. Dani has nearly 20 years of corporate marketing experience prior to jumping into voiceover in 2013.
Seeing the need for a voiceover specific platform to help voice actors understand and grow their business, Dani applied her business and marketing experience to create an intuitive, easy to use platform that helps voice actors set goals, track to those goals and build their business. And Vocieoverview was born. Voiceoverview is a business tracking and management platform built specifically for voice actors, producers, and coaches. In addition to offering a clear and simple to use CRM system, VOICEOVERVIEW provides insight into key business metrics like Audition to Booking Ratio, Top 10 Clients, Monthly and Yearly Revenue Trends, Expenses and so much more. It also offers invoicing integration with the accounting platforms most used by voice actors like Wave, Quickbooks, and Freshbooks.Truly, it's the one tool I continuously choose for my voiceover business and it’s ridiculously affordable for Voice Actors at any level. VOV has been nominated 4 years running for the One Voice Awards and with all of its features and super easy to use interface, I am not in the least bit surprised. To get started or learn more about Voiceoverview, check out the link in the show notes.
This episode is chock full of valuable information, so be sure to listen all the way to the end - you don’t want to miss Dani’s the golden nuggets of wisdom and advice.

Welcome to our weekly segment “The Other Mic”, where my husband Jeremy and I co-host the podcast to give you some tips and insights to help you and your family navigate the world of freelancing and entrepreneurship when it comes to voiceover.
You may have read this episode's title and thought either:
1. You make your own luck, Jack!
or
2. There is no such thing as luck.
No matter which realm of thought you ascribe to, there are some pretty interesting hypothetical data in regard to luck we want to share with you today. Information that lends us to believe that the pot of gold waiting for us is one that we can help ourselves to conjure on the road to pursuing what we want.
