Johnna Gottlieb, Former Talent Agent, Makes Succeeding In Voiceovers Her Business

How to Get In, How to Make It, and How to Play the Game In This Ultra-Competitive Industry

NEW YORK, July 26 /PRNewswire/ -- In the hustle and buzz of the entertainment industry one of the most competitive and exciting yet little- known areas is the voiceover business where well-spoken and distinctive sounding individuals bring commercials, films and broadcasts to life with their vocal communication skills. Agents, managers and voiceover coaches guide talent through certain aspects of this closed door industry. Only one company specializes in the business of voiceovers and marketing one's talent: Johnna Gottlieb Consulting.

A former voiceover talent agent with 11 years of experience working for the top agencies in the business, Gottlieb covers all the aspects of the voiceover trade for her clients: where to begin, how to get established, what it takes to make it and how to stay in the game.

"A distinctive niche existed for my skills and experience," said Johnna Gottlieb. "The unique advantage that I bring to my business, an insider's p.o.v., enables me to advise talent on how to navigate the voiceover industry and how to constantly evolve to accommodate the needs of an ever-changing marketplace. A voiceover talent can have the best voice in the world and all the skill the industry calls for, but without a marketing campaign success could be very hard to come by."

After representing many of the top voiceover talents in the industry, including such famous actors as James Earl Jones, Jason Alexander, Stockard Channing, Nathan Lane, John Goodman, Philip Bosco, Edward Herrmann and Blythe Danner, Gottlieb now provides business advice to newcomer and veteran voiceover talent as well as talent agencies specializing in the voiceover arena.

Gottlieb works with clients to assess their particular situation in order to develop and implement a strategic action plan. Her counsel enables talent to develop the necessary tools for attaining specific goals such as getting an agent, changing one's talent rep and how to audition. Her services include general career counseling, marketing materials, voiceover reel production, techniques for networking within the industry and insider information about talent agencies specializing in voiceovers. Additionally, she works with talent on producing and marketing their promotional reel -- the key to getting an agent, winning auditions and landing a commercial, narrating or announcing job.

With her talent agency background, Gottlieb is able to advise agencies on how to maintain their position within the industry by increasing visibility, acquiring new talent and expanding their client base.

Gottlieb is on the faculty of NYU where she teaches the course The Business of Voiceovers. She has also lectured at Syracuse University and the NYU Tisch School of the Arts.

An agent for 11 years at the top agencies representing voiceover talent, Gottlieb worked for Don Buchwald and Associates, HWA Talent Representatives, TRH Talent Representatives and SEM&M (Schiffman, Ekman, Morrison and Marx).
