Many thanks… at this stage my only hope is that the people that we work with start listening… For an industry who’s business it is to speak… we seem to have a problem voicing what bothers us… what unfairness comes our way… and what total ruthlessness some of our industry “Partners” seem to think it is acceptable to treat us with.

You are an amazing blogger. You manage to get to the essence every time – just like you did here on competition in voice business. Your writing is extraordinary – from brutally honest to brilliantly compassionate. I hope you saw on VO Planet that Michelle cited you as her favorite blog. I couldn’t agree more. You take risks, offer insights – but more than anything, you offer a most entertaining source of learning – need I say how I love your Directory. Canada’ s loss is Cairo’s gain.

I completely agree with your statements and the quote you’ve included. I learned to think about other people’s skills, practices and standout techniques during my career in massage therapy – because there is a number of times when a CMT will refer out to someone else that might better serve the client or patient’s needs. The participants in that community are very good at recognizing each other’s strengths, and are supportive of one another’s business.

There is plenty of work in the world. We can share news of auditions and casting calls and, while looking for work for ourselves, be on the lookout for things our fellow VO talents might be the right fit for.

I like how you put that, “If it benefits you, it benefits me.” Altruism is a gift in itself. Truer words are rarely spoken.
