Not Political. Just American.

Thanks for visiting! I’ve maintained a voice career for over 2 decades because I enjoy solving the 3 main obstacles that businesses face.

Time: 84% of Americans agree they need more time to spend with family and friends. Save time by bringing me onboard to be ‘the voice’ of your company’s advertising, promotional, or e-Learning projects because I deliver before the deadline – every time.

Energy: Because you’ve saved time choosing me, and not enduring the complicated process of using a third party Casting Site to hire a voice, you’ll have extra energy to put into other things that your business craves. 

Money: Save 10-20% of your voice budget by hiring me directly, versus a voice casting site. Plus take advantage of discounts I offer to repeat clients, and even monthly retainer agreements ensuring you will save money.

 

My American Values

 

Independence: Americans are very proud of being self-reliant, and I’m no different. We can not truly be free if we cannot take care of ourselves and be independent. I understand that if I put in the hard work, this creates my independence! Having these values inspires me to deliver you the best. I bring individualism to every project I’m assigned to, and I believe that’s important!

Equality: Just as all men and women should be treated equal, I also believe that all businesses should be treated equally. My continued A+ Rating with the BBB shows that I treats clients fairly, with dignity and with the utmost respect and the professionalism that they deserve.

Individualism: The truth is, everyone is different. Everyone has a different voice, a different reading style, and a different set of skills to bring to the table. Just as each script is unique, I bring my individual style – lifting written word, to life!

What sets Chris Michaels apart is his natural gift of storytelling and believability to the written word. Some go through years and years of training, coaching, and learning of the voiceover craft; and although Chris has regular sessions with world-renowned coaches in the industry, his ability comes naturally. He’s born for this work. It’s in his blood.

The American Dream

I’m living the American Dream every day! I’ve been providing my voice for almost 3 decades. American values are the same as my personal life and business values. Trust, Integrity, and Transparency.

Award Winning Sound

You’ll never get mediocre audio here because this is my livelihood! Whether you need raw audio, fully produced commercials, or broadcast quality, you’ll get it!

It’s a combination of award-winning audio engineers, top of the line studio equipment, and the professionally sound treated studio that creates the quality you receive.

Versatile Acting

Whether it’s self-directed or client directed, I deliverer what’s expected! I have the natural ability to act, and taking direction from directors or producers is a breeze!

It’s important for every Actor (voice or otherwise) to keep on top of trends and continue training. Although I continue to train with world-class coaches every year, I also have the natural-born ability to deliver relatable, believable and engaging reads for clients worldwide.

Experience & Results:

I’ve been providing my voice for satisfied clients over a span of 25 years and still going strong. The results speak for themselves. Clients like you, return for not only positive results with their project or branding, but also my customer service, quality, and fast turnarounds!

Full Transparency

The success of your business is my business. That’s why Chris Michaels Voiceover remains an A+ rating member of the Better Business Bureau (BBB) and World-Of-Voices. There is no hidden agenda in what I offer because the success of your business is directly related to my ability to provide you with exactly what you need, and when you need it.

I view my relationship with clients as a partnership, not just a voice provider.

My rates

It’s pretty tempting to save money. Everyone wants to, and there are certainly plenty of amateurs that will provide voice work – and for cheap!

Always ask yourself a few questions:

Do they voiceover full time or is it a hobby?

In 2 years will that part-time voice that you hired still be around?

Anyone can say and charge just about anything to get hired. Past experience, happy clients, natural ability, sustainability, and the true desire for your projects to become and stay successful, are what sets me apart from the voice over hobbyists that may charge less. Click here to go to my rates page. 

Equipment & Studio

The studio is professionally built and sound treated. It hosts the best equipment in the business, such as Universal Audio, Peluso, Sennheiser, Neumann, Adobe, Source Connect, Apple, etc.

Fast but not rushed

In today’s world, getting our product fast is of the utmost importance. Large projects may take additional time, but simple projects can be completed within the hour – without feeling as though it was rushed!

Regardless of how simple or complex your project is, when it’s accepted, it’s worked on exclusively. I do not work on two projects at the same time. This ensures that your project receives 100% dedication and focus, giving your message the attention it deserves!

Vocal Range

I have the natural ability to sound authoritative, mature, knowledgeable, sophisticated and educated. I can also sound naturally next-door, conversational, bright, compelling, warm and friendly, too! From movie trailers to children’s books – my range is natural and believable.
