This was posted in another thread but I thought it belonged here....there's no groupies gonna knock down your door for this gig but there's lotsa ways to make your studio profitable......here's just one more...
I had a client few years back and the gig was voice over and sound bed for a retail chains phone system ..... It was pretty cool - there were like 60 stores and I bought an auto dialer and programmed it to dial each machine and the access code - then it would record the new greeting and move on to the next machine.....Not exactly producing hit anything , but it was like $300 for each new message plus $10 for each machine and they changed it like once a month - plus a reload @ $12 anytime they dumped the data and about a dozen did every month it seemed. The cool part was the setup though...I bought the machines for like $29 and hit 'em for $60......end result - instant payoff and then about $1000 a month for a couple hours work. Went on for like 3 years......I was sorry to see that one go.....
