ACTUALLY, through my prior work (I connected to 100+ Recording studios in Morocco, Spain, Portugal, UK, and the US by going there in person and connecting f2f) I have a list of prospects that also have connections to hiring companies and that want to fill their studio because I initially connected studios and traveling voiceover artists (“voiceover nomads”) but now that I pivoted - COVID-caused - the voiceover artists and the studio have become one and the other side are hiring companies.
So, I’m pretty strong on the studio side (offering the supply), and the hirer side (the demand) is something I need to work for on the most.
building out a 2-sided marketplace from it would be tricky as a single, bootstrapped founder
That’s right, it is tricky but imagine it ACTUALLY worked. The vision of it alone makes my eyes grow :D
You got me thinking and I’ll start having some conversations with the people (actors and hiring companies that I’m connected with).
Excellent!
You’re spot on with the problems that VOs face.
