How to Manage Your Voice Over Business Using VoiceoverView with Dani States
VoiceoverView is a tool that's been around since 2017, but a lot of voice over still doesn't exactly understand what is it or how much it can do for their businesses. In this interview with CEO Dani States, she talks about where the idea for VoiceoverView came from, and how she created a business management tool for voice actors created by a voice actor.
You'll have a much clearer understanding of, not only how to use VoiceoverView, but there are plenty of insights into the important data that truly matters when it comes to tracking the progress of your voice over business.

The Tools I Use for Podcasting and Livestreaming
Two major aspects of my content strategy are podcasting and livestreaming. I've been hosting the Everyday VOpreneur Podcast since 2019 and I've been livestreaming probably almost as long with Free Advice Friday, originally on Facebook and now on YouTube.
This week I wanted to share some of the tools that help make that happen, as I'm asked about it often. I hope this is helpful for you if you're thinking about adding one of these content strategies into the mix for your voice over business.

In this episode, I dive a little deeper in what CRM is, and I provide 10 different aspects of my CRM that I couldn't live without. My CRM of choice, by the way, is Nimble.

The Tools I Use for Graphic Design
Whether it's creating graphics for social media, eBooks and PDF's for free downloads and resources, visuals for YouTube livestreams or even the slides for the courses I teach and presentations I give, graphic design tools are a huge part of my voice over business.
There are a few resources and websites that have become invaluable to me, and I know they can be a great asset for you as well. Particularly if you're currently a content creator, or an aspiring content creator.

Customer Reviews
Best VO business podcast!
I’ve been in VO for about 6 months now and am absorbing everything I can like a sponge from as many good sources as I can, including a dozen or so podcasts. Marc’s VOpreneur podcast is simply the best podcast out there for the business side of voice over with tons of practical and actionable tips and advice for people looking to start or improve their VO business! He’s got a great approach and attitude to everything he presents and I’ve integrated tons of his advice into my business already. I highly recommend this podcast to anyone looking to improve their VO game! And as a full-time pastor doing VO on the side, it was great to learn that Marc has experience in ministry with some excellent Christian book recommendations as well. Thanks and blessings Marc!
Marc!!!!
Great episode! A great reminder to focus on whats possible! Just what I needed to hear today. My tech skills are what I have been bad talking about myself. You’re optimistic approach shines in all your episodes. I highly endorse your voice for one, and your generosity of spirit! Thanks for the one on one q and a! Merry Christmas 🎄
