Email This Entry

Posted by Alex Williams

Podcasters are for hire.

You, too, can move beyond static recordings, the ummms and uhhhs that plague your show. It's time to enter the world of voice over talent, sound engineers and professional recordings.

Welcome to the world of vanity podcasting!

Actually, these are the kinds of services that may be ideal for a company with an international presence or those that wish to enter a foreign market. Hire voice talent, have the recording produced and launch it in the market you are trying to reach.

It could be part of a whole series of audio shows that cover marketing, sales, customer service, etc.

InteractiveVoices is a site that does just that - connect clients with professional voice over talent through an online marketplace. Different from a traditional talent agency, the voice-over marketplace is a meeting place for the two parties to connect. Currently, there are over 2500 professional voice talents at the website.
