Help! I can't pinpoint my quality problem

Hello all! I've been hammering myself lately to produce a demo worthy of submitting to my agent, in hopes they can add me to their voice over roster. I've treated my entire booth with insulating panels, I'm using an Apogee Mic Plus, and I record my software in Audacity, then edit in Rx7 Elements. My editing goes as follows,

I gently compress the audio to a ratio of 3:1, -7dbs, attack 10ms, release 6 sec

I gently bump my treble as I have a very bass heavy voice,

I use the Voice De-noise to eliminate my very minimal room tone,

I use de click to eliminate my mouth clicks,

I use De-Clip to smooth down spikes

Then I normalize to a -2db

This set up as produced me this result, and it has proved to be my highest quality, but when I listen to my agents signed VO talent I cannot help but notice mine has a "Using a Mic" feel, less than desirable quality. I don't know what to do, as the audio engineering aspect of this has me very humbled. Thank you all for you help. I'm more than willing to watch yet another youtube video anyone has to recommend lol, currently I'm watching all of Booth Junkie and Will Williams on Aliso Creeks youtube channel :)
