Our Training and Support Program
We believe that our innovative and unique program is the best way for voiceover talent to receive the training they need to hone their delivery, receive business development skills, learn their strengths and overcome their weaknesses.
Work with an industry insider while receiving support from your group in a learning environment that fosters creative thinking and problem solving in a team effort, as opposed to a classroom or seminar setting.
In order for each member to receive the most individualized attention there are only two groups, beginner and advanced, and each group has a strict maximum membership of just 10 select talents each.
If a group is full you can be placed on the waiting list and will have the opportunity to join should a current member move on.
Group Teleconferences
Group phone sessions will take place for one hour each Saturday afternoon. This is a time for questions and concerns you have in your personal career to be discussed within the group and with the instructor.
All aspects of the voiceover business and how they pertain to the situations of each particular member will be addressed. From technical issues to rate confusion to your marketing plan, any questions you may have will be answered and the group will have the opportunity to learn from others and be prepared when they face the same situation.
Participation from all members is strongly encouraged.
Group Message Boards
All group members have access to the private group message boards for the duration of their membership. This gives participants around-the-clock support should they have a problem that needs immediate attention as Erik, as well as other group members, will be checking in periodically throughout the day.
Talent may also post general questions or concerns to be discussed and addressed on the boards or as a topic suggestion for the next teleconference.
Be secure in the knowledge that you have professional advice and personalized attention available to you whenever it is needed. This level of support is unprecedented in the traditional world of voiceover coaching and available only with our support and mentoring program.
