Hey John,

Don't despair. More than a few of us are pushing 1400 submissions - and that's with a 1:5 - 2:5 deletion quota.

You seem to have a very "Radio" voice. Great timber and depth. There are several on this board more qualified than I to comment on your demos. My only suggestion would be to try a more natural delivery on some of your spots, and then construct a balanced demo from it all.

Keep at it - 100 is just scratching the surface,

John, John, John...
You cannot make money on Voice123.
Make that Rule One.
You can get an awful lot of practice and advice on Voice123.
Make that Rule Two.
Breaking Rule One is a rare treat.
Make that Rule Three.

And if you want some critiques and helpful hints, post your demos here. I - for one - would be glad to do you a favour, but I ain't going to go running around to do it.

Advice On!

John.... a suggestion....

Post your demo(s) here as an attachment so we don't have to navigate over to your homepage here to critique. It'll simplify it for us and I'll bet you'll receive a lot more responses.

Cheers.
