"I'm an audiobook coach. Been formally coaching for 5 years. Before I entered audiobook narration, I was a career actor coach, teaching actors how to design their careers from small to large markets from 2009-13. Once I go to 150 credits, I started evaluating demo samples.
Then I became the resident audiobook coach for Boston Casting in 2019, and have expanded the instructional business from there. "
Hi, Tanya! Thanks for another excellent article and for the nice shout-out to me and my site!
I added a link to this article at the top of the page of my Coaches Directory, which has over 40 vetted people who offer coaching to narrators on business or performance: https://www.narratorsroadmap.com/coaches-directory/
The only thing I would add is: if you're new to the industry, ask someone well respected in the industry that ISN'T a coach what the word on the street is about the coach you're thinking about hiring. Some of the most successful coaches with lots of clients have at best a mixed reputation for producing students ready to work, so it's always worth asking someone on the inside what folks are saying.
But otherwise, I love this rundown! Definitely going to recommend this to friends and students going forward. Thank you, Tanya!
Excellent advice!
Thanks for the shoutout Tanya! I’m proud of the community we’ve created at narrator.life and the feedback we’ve gotten from narrators.
