In this episode of The Making Wavs VO Podcast, Voice Actor and Entrepreneur Bill DeWees takes us on a journey into what it really takes to build a successful, sustainable career in voiceover. Too often, aspiring voice actors are told that the key to success is simple - take classes, land an agent, and the work will come. But what happens when you don’t get noticed by a big agency and no jobs are rolling in? Bill challenges the traditional thinking, offering a fresh perspective on how to actually make it in the voiceover industry. In this episode, he pulls back the curtain on the real work behind a VO career and discusses how building genuine client relationships, managing your own expectations, and mastering your mindset are essential elements often overlooked in the pursuit of success. This episode is a wake-up call for anyone who thinks they can just sit back and wait for opportunities to come to them. If you're serious about your VO career and want to know why most voice actors don’t make it, this episode is for you. Don't miss this opportunity to transform your approach and mindset towards building a thriving, long-term voiceover career!
