Show me the money

Jerry McGuire’s line “Show me the money” has been my motto and business principle. I just think if you are good, you shouldn’t have to lower your price! Sure there’s plenty who will; and cheapen their worth in my opinion. Your reputation in how low you can go will travel to fast. If this is your bread and butter so to speak, let them know you have mouths to feed! I don’t feel bad asking what I feel I’m worth, and you shouldn’t either. Have you ever paid for something that others would say you were crazy for doing so? It’s because you felt good about your purchase, the same holds true in how much you sell yourself for! Reputation is all too important, set your sights higher, be better and ask them to show you the money! http://www.57thstreetmedia.com

A recession proof job

As the recession continues, companies still needs to reach consumers and that means voice-over talent make money! Make no mistake about it...Voice-over and advertizing a multibillion dollar industry that continues to make headway. Whether you want to supplement your income or make a great living, voice-over opportunities are plentiful.

As a talent that voices commercials for radio & TV, I can tell you agency representation is the key to working!!! If you are seeking representation don’t stop until you have an agent that believes in you and is getting you work. Not all will come to you immediately, some may say; call us when you land a big deal...Still others not even a mere response? And you wonder what is going on right! My best advice to you all is this…. Keep your demo up to date, Have your demo gone through by industry professionals, keep dialing, continue practicing your craft, and never give up! Theres work out there, go get it. http://www.57thstreetmedia.com
