Great site for voice over work but...
I am relatively new to the Voices platform and I have been most active there than previous platforms. If you are in doubt I would say give it a try. They do retain 20% of earnings as part of accessing jobs on the site but you ultimately are in charge of your quote so you can factor that in. Also their yearly subscription can be a bit pricey for some. I would suggest they come up with a monthly tier which can maybe make it more affordable.
Overall, great site for voice over work.

My Job Posting Experience
In the process of posting my job, I was unable to connect with a customer service agent on the phone. However, the responses I received to my email notes were very helpful. I extended narration invitations to seven people, received four responses, and selected one person for the narration of my audiobook. The work will commence sometime in January or February. I'm very satisfied with my voices.com experience to date,

Hi Jenny,
Thanks very much for reaching out to us and for your patience while we checked with our team. We have received your application but it is still in line for evaluation. With the high volume of submissions we receive, we're not able to respond to each one until it has been assessed and selected to move forward.
Rest assured this is a legitimate platform and a real job that you've applied for. You will only hear from us with next steps if you've been selected to move forward - unfortunately, we are not able to reach out to those who were not selected.
Thank you very much for your interest in Voices!
Overall it was not bad nor exceptional
Overall it was not bad nor exceptional. Only 2 voice actors responded to the audition call! Not impressive, I used more than one service in my search for someone to narrate my audiobook. Out of the top three one had 24 auditions, another 4 auditions with Voices at the bottom with 2.
I hired off of Voices for a variety of reasons, budget being one, and the narrator was in the top 3 on the list. So overall I rate their service as average, no better and no worse than the others.
Will I search for a narrator on Voices for the next book? Yes, along with using the other sites as well.

Hi Mark,
Thanks very much for leaving a review and sharing your experience with us.
For the future, we're happy to help if you're not seeing more auditions come through for your job. Two would certainly be on the unusually low side for what we'd see for a typical job posting, so we're always happy to help ensure you're getting a broader range of responses.
Looking forward to working with you again in the future - we're here to help!
Total SCAM
Despite the many auto-emails they pestered me with (largely offering me a discount on their "premium" $499 membership (!), Voices.com did not bother to respond to my question regarding their paywall.
My question was, is it true that over 90% of your "employers" are just bait-- that is, they look available for application, but when you click on them to apply, you are REDIRECTED to a page instructing you to pay $499 for "access"!
Otherwise, you CAN'T APPLY. Seriously??
THIS is their business model (well, not counting the 20% pre-tax fee on all jobs you land). Wow!
The first job I landed was Job #764311, which was nothing more than a criminal enterprise trying to seduce Voice.com workers out of their addresses, birthdays, and social security numbers.
I just spent 30 minutes with the REAL company owner-- i.e. the one NOT interested in hiring any voices. He had been pummeled by a number of Voice.com workers who insisted they had sent in the voiceovers, but had not received their payment.
I advised him on how to extract himself legally from the problems he suffered-- as Voices.com is clearly more interested in milking wannabe workers for cash than vetting the "employers" they dangle in front of us.
$499 premium indeed! Voices.com is laughable.
Beware of this waste of time. I have spent many hours and received a big fat zero for my trouble. I avoided a case of identity theft by searching websites and finding a phone number to connect with the real owner. Otherwise, I would be in as bad a shape as the workers to gave up their information and completed the voiceovers WITHOUT PAY.
P.S. Postscript, from the "Voices" reply:
"The membership fee... ensures that the premium talent on Voices are at the professional level required to meet the needs of clients..."
The Premium (not membership) fee ensures ONLY that the pockets of Voices.com are well-lined.
It ensures nothing whatsoever to vendors looking for talent.
Also, your special vetting system caught nothing. We (the talent) had to complain before something was done -- thus rather belatedly.
And why haven't you deleted my (& others') accounts yet??
I provided an email AND a website request over a week ago, yet am still receiving your email bot ads.

Thank you for sharing your feedback with us and for bringing this to our attention; we truly appreciate it.
We are aware of these fraudulent accounts and have taken action by removing all associated job postings and permanently suspending the relevant clients. These scammers employ sophisticated tactics, including using legitimate company and employee names, to bypass our security and flagging systems. However, the moment they engage with talent on our platform, our system promptly detects suspicious activity, allowing us to take immediate action and shut them down.
Sharing personal contact information or accepting jobs off-platform is a violation of our Terms of Service, which is designed to prevent situations like these. The only exception is when a client provides an agreement on Voices, and contact information is shared solely for the purpose of conducting a live directed session.
Building on the measures we already have in place, we are actively enhancing the platform with additional security features to further safeguard our community.
The safety and success of talent on our platform is our number one priority and we encourage any talent who is feeling uncertain about a job or a client to contact our support team and they can look into it.
Regarding membership levels and applying for jobs, we do have a free guest membership, which gives you the opportunity to build up your profile on our website, upload unlimited demos, and receive private invites to jobs. The best way to maximize these opportunities is to fully fill out your profile and add high-quality demos - tagging them all properly - so that clients can see what you're capable of. Both your profile and your demos are essential to success on Voices.
The premium membership does come with a cost, and the advantages for premium talent include daily job invitations that match the talent’s profile and skill set, sent to the talent directly, and access to the world’s best brands all in one place - something that would be difficult to do on your own. The membership fee also ensures that the premium talent on Voices are at the professional level required to meet the needs of clients, to ensure clients continue to come back to Voices to post their jobs.
Our goal is to provide the highest possible value to both our clients and our talent to make any fees worthwhile. That being said, we continue to look at pricing and the ways we can improve this element of the customer experience, and we appreciate your feedback.
Our team has now deleted your account and someone has reached out to you directly to confirm. We wish you all the best.

The Customer Has No Control Over Choosing the VO Artist.
i chose a very qualified Voice Over Artist after searching for hours. I entered the specific "offer him/her a job". Went through ALL the boxes specific to my project and his/her talents. After a half-hour or more when I wanted to send them the job, I came to a page that listed SEVERAL random people under Public. (all of which did NOT pay attention to my FIXED price but wanted to charge me more). I then went to Private, but the VO artist I had chosen was NOT listed after I had followed all the proper steps. I was VERY, VERY MAD and FRUSTRATED. I get the impression that the customer has NO control over the VO artist they choose.

Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We're sorry you experienced difficulty hiring the exact talent you wanted to.
The easiest way to invite a specific talent is by inviting the talent to the job right from their profile. We do offer the option to invite more talent if you'd like to, in order to receive more auditions, but inviting one talent is possible. There may be instances when that particular talent is away or not available.
We would be happy to walk you through the process to ensure you can invite the exact talent you'd like to - if you reach out to our team at support@voices.com, we'd love to help you.

Awesome site!
I joined Voices a few months ago and I really liked the instructions for setting up the profile and walking thru the process from beginning to end is extremely beneficial. Lots of auditions received based on my voice profile and opportunity to learn from others to hone my skills.

Consistency!
I once heard a colleague of mine talk lowly about Voices. At the moment, I didn’t say anything because I had just signed up to it. After 20+ auditions submitted, I finally landed my first VO gig on the site. It’s like anything you do in life, consistency pays off. The yearly fee is not bad and the agency fee like most acting and modeling gigs are in line with industry standards. Also, I like how your voice is matched with jobs, showing you if a job is aligned with your sound or not. Excited to do more!

Good platform. It offers real job opportunities.
I recently started using the platform, and so far, I have had the opportunity to audition several times and have already received my first job.
My payment has not yet been processed. However, the information is clear and precise regarding payment times, so it's just a matter of waiting.
I give four stars since my payment process has not yet been completed. It is still in process.
