Manage episode 495055158 series 3659943
Ready to Crush Your Next Networking Event? Here’s how.
Most voice actors walk into events with no plan—and walk out wondering why they didn’t make any real connections (or land any gigs).
In this video, I break down exactly how to network like a pro without being pushy, salesy, or awkward. Whether you’re heading to VO Atlanta, One Voice USA, or a non-VO industry event packed with potential clients, you’ll learn how to:
• Avoid the business card trap
• Shift from collecting to connecting
• Show up with purpose, confidence, and strategy
• Build relationships that lead to real opportunities
🧠 Plus: I’ll show you how to get your own Personalized VO Networking Game Plan: a free interactive quiz that gives you a step-by-step strategy based on your unique networking style and the type of event you’re attending.
