Marc Guss’s Clubhouse group, Instincts of a Talent Agent, moved to LinkedIn this week with its first-ever LinkedIn audio event on Wednesday night. The discussion started off with a conversation between Marc and his colleague Jeffrey Umberger about what voice over representation looks like in 2023.
Accountability was the next topic, which is what Billie Jo Konze discussed when she was in the speaker area. When she started an accountability group, she said that she gained focus in her career and that things started happening for her.
Next at the mic was Tom Antonellis, following up on this topic, adding that you need to be accountable to yourself and your career. A major breakthrough for him was when he realized that he needed to establish core values for his business, which he says help guide his decisions.
Gina Scarpa joined the stage and talked about how patience is such a big piece of a voiceover career. She talked about how she persisted for 3 years before the time was right for her to join Marc at ACM (Congrats on that, Gina!). As she and Marc discussed, it’s about playing the long game and seeing the big picture. Staying consistent and being patient is the key.
Unfortunately at this point I had to go, but I’m happy to hear this first part of the discussion. As always, thanks, Marc for hosting these audio events, and thanks to everyone who takes the stage to share!
