Want to learn more about me than I may have ever shared before on the internet. Voice Over Talent Dave Courvoisier ( can’t believe I spelled that correctly on the first pass without looking) conducted a very lengthy interview with me for his blog. I wanted to say thank you to him for doing such a bang-up job on it. With as much as I tried to make myself look like a putz, he wouldn’t allow it.

There’s always some sort of risk when you leave yourself open for comments from customers. One of the things I have mentioned here and there when it comes to the design of the new database is transparency. We all want a voice casting site built upon transparency. What does it mean to be transparent? It means not having to sit around and try to dissect how or if someone is pulling the strings behind the scenes. People want to know what is going on and it’s pretty hard for you guys to stay interested in a web site you can neither touch nor see. So it is my job, in the interest of transparency, to keep you informed about all of the things that are going on in and around the site. So I thought today with this post, we’d let you know what customers have been saying about us and the site as it stands so far. This is how people feel about what we’re doing.  Caryn Clark - The Hip Chick Voice A while back, as we were sitting here kicking around ideas about the up-and-coming voice over database, we got a little curious and went searching for voice talent. But not just any old voice talent. We went looking for well branded voice talent. All too often when you go digging around looking for a new voice you come across page after page that states, “I’m the greatest thing since sliced voice talent and I’m good at everything you could possible want to hire me for!” which we know to be mere self promotion, and more frequently then not, quite a false representation of the truth. As we were looking, I remembered Caryn Clark and how impressed I was with her web page and her branding. It struck me as one of the few web pages I had come across in recent searches, that actually matched the talent it was promoting. I recommended we give her page another look and we came to a unanimous conclusion: Caryn Clark is a well branded voice talent. And I’m going to tell you why. For a long time I have discussed the idea of voice over positioning with a lot of non-industry related people when I would get caught up in explaining to them the intricacies of what I do every day, and how most of my daily, monthly and yearly attempts at self improvement in the industry were more related to positioning than they were to trying to have the best of everything. In a nutshell, I look at the things I do when it comes to studio and performance improvements as nothing more than working toward being properly positioned to take advantage of opportunity when it decides to knock. I know many of us who have been doing this for years, have been “positioning” ourselves for success in the same way that I am writing about, but some of us may not have looked at it like this before. So I decided to share it because it popped up in another conversation this morning and I began to wonder why I had never written about it before.
