Sound Advice

I did A LOT of research on VO coaching and demo production in Chicago before deciding to go with Sound Advice and I am so glad I did. Kate and Jeff exceeded all of my expectations.
Now, just to be clear I do have many years of improv and acting under my belt but VO is a whole ‘nother field. I had fumbled around and dabbled in it over the past year and a half and decided it was time to take myself seriously.
That’s where Sound Advice comes in. They provided fantastic foundational coaching; tools that I know I will use over and over behind the mic, but that was only the beginning. Working on my demo with them was a complete joy, because they took the time to get to know me and my strengths and tailored the copy to showcase me at my best. And they just made it a fun experience.
But it doesn’t stop when the demo is created. That’s the best part! Kate will take the time to guide you through the process of marketing yourself, getting graphics, a website, show you step-​by-​step how to mail to creatives, agents… the works! I wish I had met her years ago to help me get my acting career off the ground.
But the proof is in the outcome. After getting my demo made I quickly secured an agent, and have already booked my first job!!!
So, yes, they may be a little more expensive than «the other guys» but man, oh man, this is a true case of you get what you pay for… and so much more.

As a novice trying to break into the voice over business, I had no clue where to start. After doing some research online on demo production studios, Sound Advice stood out from the rest. They ended up exceeding my expectations!
What makes Sound Advice so exceptional is the personalized focus they give to each client. They didn’t hand me a cookie-​cutter demo then send me out the door. They took the time to tailor my demo according to my voice and personality. I was provided with a full service package of training, coaching, demo production and a complete guide to the business including how to market myself successfully.
Kate and Jeff are extremely professional, knowledgeable and care strongly about the success of their clients, even after the demo production is complete. If I have any questions, I do not hesitate to ask. They are always willing and eager to lend their advice and expertise.
I highly recommend Sound Advice, no matter where you are in your voice over career. I will, with out a doubt, remain a loyal and happy client for years to come!

I can’t say enough good things about Sound Advice. The staff, the training, and the finished product are the best in the business! Don’t even think about going anywhere else!

My experience with Sound Advice has been excellent. I was given wonderful training, advice and support. I recommend Sound Advice highly.

As a stage actor trying to branch out into other areas of acting, I was very interested in voiceover. I turned to Sound Advice for help. I knew nothing about voiceover and they explained the entire business from step 1 to getting an agent and building my own personal voiceover business. Whether you want to tweak your current voiceover skills or start from square one, they offer private coaching to meet your needs. I never have a second thought about contacting them for help or advice. They are always available and generous with their knowledge and time. I signed up for the complete package and received a demo at the end of my coaching and recording sessions. I have received wonderful feedback from those in the industry about my demo’s high quality and professional sound. Sound Advice is thee place for voiceover!
