Jacob BurgessI was affected by a reduction in workforce at my day job.
If anyone knows are needs a damn good worker with narrative, project management, marketing, and VO experience, I'm your huckleberry.
Looks like I've got some time for freelancing clients.😂
Oscelot@JacobBurgess Ah fuck, I’m so sorry Jacob. I’ll keep my ear to the ground for you.
Thrythlind - Decompressing@JacobBurgess ah, man, I know what that feels like. Here's hoping things land for you.
Sam@JacobBurgess well, that sucks. All the best with finding somewhere new quickly
Teryl's Tales of Whim~@JacobBurgess https://www.makewordshappen.com/ Is here still the best place to go for examples of your most recent work?
Doodles@JacobBurgess My sympathies, man. Good luck finding new work.
Draxov@JacobBurgess damn layoffs, scourge of the game industry this year. best of luck with finding somewhere new quick, went through the same thing in July, it sucks. If I see anything over your timezone I'll send it your way (you never know) 🤞
jello ツ@JacobBurgess Sorry to hear.
It’s most certainly their loss.
Dan@JacobBurgess Sorry to hear that, do you have a Ko-fi or anything like that to help ease the transition?
@danjarif I don't, but that's very kind of you to offer. Maybe I should think about doing that
Enfys J. Book [they/them]@JacobBurgess Oh hell, I'm so sorry to hear that. I'll get the word out!
@JacobBurgess Do you have a price sheet or similar benchmarking thing? Or are you more in a chat-and-negotiate place for freelance work?
@UnseenAcademical I have my own starting points, but every project / ask is different, so I usually negotiate first off.
@JacobBurgess Haggle is literally a free action, got it.

cyclopsboi@JacobBurgess I wish you good luck in your search, judging by the company you keep and those who vouch for you, you are a top notch professional
Bonnie Bogovich@JacobBurgess
gah Jacob I just saw your post about being laid off
i'll def keep you in mind if anything comes up
are you open to nonunion voice work or only union?
I will be doing a casting call soon for a horror game and there are some male roles, let me know and shoot me your latest preferred details to [email protected]
ps; are you gonna be at gamesoundcon? If so let's grab a coffee and catch up . If not, lets grab a videochat coffee and catch up!
@BlackCatBonifide Thank you! I can do both union and non-union work. Hit me up on Discord?
@JacobBurgess awesome! Will do:)
Tom JensenMight be a bit out of your wheelhouse. But my employer is hiring in our marketing department.
Our business model is never "upsell". Get the client talking about themselves and schmooze. Its oddly great.
@Keicowku this is, in fact, very much IN my wheel house. Thank you! I will take a look.
@JacobBurgess Our lowest paid full-time position "just walked in the door, knows nothing, and needs extensive training" is a smidge under $23/hr. I cannot imagine what corporate level manager salary looks like. Good luck!. :)
EDCBeerGeek@JacobBurgess Damn that sucks, I was downsized at the end of Aug, and just have just gotten an offer for something, but they can’t start me for over a month😅. I hope you find something soon. In the mean time I saw this at my FLGS yesterday and thought of you immediately…I hope the knowledge of this game of heraldry’s existence brings you some small joy.
