He's some kind of Dutch guy.
What is it with those Netherlanders? _________________ DBCooperVO.com |

Rumor has it that this flying Dutchman is a member of this message board. He actually became an American citizen last July.
I wonder what's he's up to next? Oh... I see. He's just written a letter to voice-seekers. What's that all about?

Thank you, Paul! These are both great pieces. The one on rates was a good start to my day, and to finish with the open letter to voice-seekers was the brandy by the fire.
If you're considering a follow-up or 'Part 2' to the open letter, may I suggest the excellent suggestions from my friends at ProComm Studio Services (and the three I added):

Very good article. I especially liked... Losers lower their prices. Winners know what they’re worth! _________________ "Bailey"
