Vo Boss Podcast

The Bosses are always talking about the importance of branding and marketing so we wanted to talk to a trend-setting expert on the subject. We’re excited to welcome special guest Andy Krainak – brand manager for Vayner Media. (Yup, as in Gary Vaynerchuck’s right-hand man!) He’s sweet, humble and offers some killer branding advice to our listeners. The audio quality isn’t what you’d typically hear from VOBoss but the business-talk is BOSS to the MAX.   Show notes and exclusive offers at VOBoss.com!

There's a Wild West out there with online and digital job opportunities.  Which got the Bosses thinking, how do we know if a job is real? Is it possible we’re answering fake auditions? Voice actors record audition after audition and send them out into some unknown audio void. So how do we know if a job is real? Join the discussion in this week’s episode.

A few weeks back The Bosses talked about passive income and its ability to be a life-changer for entrepreneurs and we caused some inadvertent paranoia for our voiceover listeners!  We told you all about why passive income is so great, but we didn’t address HOW to generate passive income.

Social Media…business tool or cesspool of ‘social’ behavior? The choice really is yours.

Anne and Gabby are concerned. Because blind faith can be a business blunder. Stop asking coaches and other voiceover actors what you should do in this industry. Stop relying on others to tell you how you should run your business. Opinions are great, but ultimately, the journey is yours and so is the destination.  Listen too much to others and you’ll end up in Toledo, which is nothing like the Tahiti you envisioned! These are Boss basics, and we invite you to join this week’s discussion about voiceover coaching.   Show notes and exclusive offers at VOBoss.com!
