KTS Webinar #41: Ask For it; It’s Not Personal: Negotiating For Your Labor

Whether you’re booking your first on-set gig, landing that tenure track job, or getting set up with new clients, always remember that EVERYTHING is negotiable. In this webinar for professionals in vocal design/production/performance, Amy Chaffee and Adi Cabral guide you through some basics of self-employment, including setting terms of service, countering offers, “deliverables,” boundaries and expectations, accountability and accounting, billing, and (re)negotiation of terms.

On Saturday 5th November at 10am PST/1pm EST/5pm GMT.
