Earlier today, a customer had complimented my voice and said that I should be doing voice work and that I was in the wrong job; she was nice, and IMO, she meant well.
Now, this is interesting, because whenever people make remarks about my voice (TV, radio, movies), I usually just thank them, and afterwards, I'll brush it off and remind myself that there are plenty of people out there who have fantastic voices, and realistically, my voice is probably not as unique/distinct as people are making it out to be; I'm just a guy who tries to speak well.
With that said, based on my research of the voice over business, there's more to voice over/radio than having a nice voice: in order to be successful, an individual must continually market himself or herself and needs to build as many connections as possible, and as an extreme introvert, this is something that I've never enjoyed; IMO, it is not for me. But nevertheless, I'm appreciative of the people who take time out of their day to say something nice to another person.
Your voice is indeed special and nice. Like you
Awwwwwww I made a sweet.
