I go back a few years and never thought of a kid's clicker to make a "sharp" sound. I used the clicking of the stopwatch close to the mic to start recording. Three clicks...on, off, on...and commence recording. Minimal time lost and better vocal marker than "3-2-1" for editing. However with longer scripts necessitating more editing (instead of starting over as on :30/:60 spots) finger-snaps and plain old hand claps also work! Better yet...don't make mistakes! =)

I do something similar, but instead of the clicker (by the way, I didn't know they existed), I do a very high pitch sound.
I just do one every time a do a mistake, and just cut till the next wave sound without a high pitch after it.
Different VOs, different techniques!
