Time to Get Back into it

I've made the decision to get back into auditioning. My time is going to start closing in on me and I need to get a system going to make some money.

Tonight, I blasted out about 20 auditions. Some of them already had about 100 auditions before it but you never know.

I find that with voices the key is not so much getting them the fastest. Which is definitely a huge part of it, but also it is a combination with not wasting your time on old auditions during prime hours.

The reason I say prime hours, is that business hours during the weekdays (+- 3 hours depending on time zone) are going to be the times where you can get the jobs quick. It requires you to audition as soon as they pop up. However, if you audition slate is full of old auditions, you really shouldn't do those in prime hours.

Here it is 1am on a Sunday night (not prime at all), so I pre-emptively empty out my audition box to prepare for the days ahead. It's a twofold reason, 1) It's better than deleting them because you get a chance at a job 2) It helps because you dont have to weed through old auditions to get to new ones.

If you get an audition notice and you have say 4 auditions around it. If you do all 4, you may be a good half hour behind the ball. Meaning, you might be 40-50 auditions in just because you didn't do the old auditions.

In conclusion, audition, audition, audition, and once monday-wednesday comes around stay near your computer when you're home and check check check to be the first on those jobs.

Good Luck!!
