Yup, 2021 is here and it just seems like life is flashing by at such speed as you get further into your years. Granted, I’m no spring chicken, but it just seems like when you roll out of bed on Monday morning and take a good stretch – it’s Friday when you look around. Where did the week go?
This year, I’m focusing more on e-Learning projects, narrative jobs and Explainer videos. I like the long form stuff that isn’t an audio book. That’s just not my thang. The incredible GVAA Rate Guide had helped us all so much in order to set rates without the clients saying, HOW MUCH?? Sorry, that’s what the market will bear these days. Get with it. And I have. And many of my clients have too. I’m always sure to mention I am negotiable. And that seems to please a majority of them. But some go away with a, “I’m not paying that much for just a bunch of words! That’s ridiculous!” Ok, go find someone with a Close ‘n Play recording kit and use them. I’d rather work with clients who respect what we do and we in turn respect them too.
