EP 189 Get Ready for Q4

September is 1/3 of the way over and I am laying out my REVISED PLANS for the final quarter based on how the year has gone and how I need to finish... especially related to MARKETING my strengths. As voice actors we learn quickly we are in the business of HIGH REJECTIONS whether it is an audition or when marketing... we get no response, feedack or anything most of the time.
