My Voice Will Be Aired for the Bagel Factory throughout Ireland!

Bagel Factory

Hi Stephanie,

Just a quick note of thanks! I just finished a quick pickup session with Slate Post Production of Dublin, Ireland and all I can say is that they were fabulous to work with!

They had originally posted for two different characters, which I had only auditioned for one of. To my surprise--and delight--they decided to use my character to voice both spots!

Thanks in part to Voices.com, my voice will be aired for the Bagel Factory throughout Ireland--yea!

Thanks for all that you do! Keep up the great work!

Best Regards,

My Great Opportunity to take on a Colorful, Strong Female Role. Thanks VOICES.COM!

kristi-stewart-180.jpgI've just completed an audiobook project for the company SPEAKING VOLUMES after auditioning for it on Voices.com!

I had the opportunity to narrate and bring to life the fictional character Michael Tree, a female detective.

The book, DEADLY BELOVED, written by renowned author, MAX ALLAN COLLINS, takes you on an action packed adventure with this gritty, gutsy and sometimes sexy female P.I. in search of her husband's killer!

As a female voice actor who's been in this business for 25 years plus it's great to have had the opportunity to take on such a colorful, strong female role.

I certainly hope people have as much fun listening to this thriller... as I had narrating it!

Thanks VOICES.COM!

Simply in Awe of the Number of Responses we received!

rcg_logo.jpgOur search is complete.

We were simply in awe of the number of responses we received in such little time. Almost overnight, we had 57 auditions. Not in my wildest dreams did I anticipate that many.

Voices.com is an amazing service and we have now found the best resource available when in need of voice over work.

Thank you for all your help.

Got My First Job from this Site!

Tina AndersonI've been a finalist on several big jobs but I can't believe how excited I am to have just finished a "tiny" little VO job! Have to tell you, though, I got it because the client liked my demo, and my very low price... sigh, which has kept me out of the running before, based on feedback in emails. I think I have a new on-going client with this job, but I definitely had to hook him with a lower price. Still, exciting to get my first job from this site.

Thanks!

Many voices, one client, lots of fun.

Bill KatesI had a blast creating the vocal soundtrack for a short promotional video supporting energy independence for client Bob Love. Voices performed included Howard Cosell, Rod Serling, Ronald Regan, JFK, and Vince Lombardi.

Client was friendly and easy to work with. Glad to do it!

Just wanted to let you know that in the past month-I've booked four jobs through Voices.com. I got an audio book, 2 e-learning jobs and a movie trailer. Thanks so much!

I'm also creating demo reels for aspiring voice over actors in the Los Angeles/Orange County area if anyone is interested. If someone needs one they can email me or call me at 310-980-8117.

All the best,

Can We Do it Again... Soon?

Sandy KelleyI'm not sure what was happening earlier this week... perhaps I was up at the top of the featured list? But for the first time, in a very long while, I received several inquires, out of the blue, for quotes and did generate one job out of it.

So this is just a thank you for whatever you did. Can we do it again... soon??

Many thanks,

I've Acquired 4 Good Jobs in My First 7 Weeks at Voices.com

jason leblanc voice actorHey everybody,

I just wanted to thank Voices.com for all the hard work and great care they take in affording their members the opportunity to garner work they would not have other wise been able to solicit.

I have been a member for 7 weeks now, and have acquired 4 good paying, well above minimum jobs, as well as the contacts that come from it. From Canada to New Orleans, Vegas to Houston. Pretty cool what you can do with a good supporting cast, a mic, a computer, and the fact that I’m a composer, musician, vocalist, as well as a voice actor. One of the jobs I got was a jingle… Cool.

I briefly stuck my toes in the water at that 123 place, and found it to be much different, and I absolutely love the fact that Voices has a $100 minimum. Hey, we are pros, and deserve at least a decent minimum for our talent, studio time, and electricity...

Through my association with Voices, Julie Williams' forum, and now I Rock the Mic, I landed a pretty cool gig on a new, soon to be released "Star Trek" animated series. I'm Capt. Aaron Glenn Commander USS Azrael in "USS Farragut - The Animated Episodes". I even did the trailer. Pretty cool stuff. Here's the link to that.

Click on the "Special Episodes" link above the pic for trailer and press release.

Thanks Voices... I'm grand-fathered, and happy to be here...

It Has Taken Off Rapidly!

Hello all,

This is truly exciting and a success story for me. It is always said that patience pays off and it is paying off very well. I had been on Voices.com for a year without any response. This is my second year and it has taken off rapidly.

I have been contacted three times in the last two weeks and have gotten work; I have already recorded one job and got paid. The second one will be recorded on Monday and the third is to be recorded on Tuesday. The first company was out of Toronto, the second out of Chicago and the third out of California.

I will be putting up these recordings when I have them all completed.

These three jobs have already paid for my memberships and this year I will be doing a lot of marketing through Voices.com.

Thank you Voices.com.

Thank You For INCREDIBLE Customer Service!

MichelleI just had to say, since I've become much more active with voices.com over the past few months, I've been booking quite a few gigs! :) Most of them off my generic demos at that - which I *LOVE* that you allow us to submit. At the moment, I'm a part time talent (not for much longer though!) and having the ability to submit generic demos, makes it possible for me to get a few more auditions in during the day.

I also want to thank you for your INCREDIBLE customer service. I've had NIGHTMARE service from your major online competitor, but you guys have always been so pleasant with me and so wonderful dealing with my questions and issues. I really, really appreciate that and will continue to spread the word on how much I love Voices.com.

Thank you!

First Voices.com Booking... Yeah!

Columbia Water and LightI booked my first gig through Voices.com.

I voiced a .30 and .60 for Columbia Water and Light through AdWorks. It was a character read and I had a great time recording it. The spots started airing in Columbia, Missouri on April 10. It was a great experience. They used my .30 audition and the first take I submitted.

It was a great experience.

Voices.com U-ROCK!

SkytapMy Success story is about LOCATION and just how much VOICES.COM Rocks!!

About three weeks ago I read an e-mail that was sent from VOICES.COM. It was from a local Computer Corporation called SKYTAP they were in dire need of a Voice Over Artist that was Local and they were on DEADLINE.

Through VOICES.COM they chose my sound and hired me for a 2 min. intro and a ten min. product tour!

The client and myself formed a lasting working relationship and friendship and last night I went to a rockin' Launch Party for the project and landed a few other gigs in the process! It was so great to meet the actual Client and the other talents who were also involved in the project!

Thanks for the work! Voices.com U-ROCK!

They went through and listened to a variety of voices on the Voices.com site and then offered me an opportunity to read an audition of their product. I did, they approved and I am now on retainer as the national spokesperson VO for Thomasville Furniture.

Surprised to find it's easier to find talent to record locally online!

Dear Laurynda,

I just wanted to thank you for Voices.com's wonderfully helpful service. I had no idea this site existed until someone pointed the website out to me, and now I only wish I knew about it earlier. I had 94 responses within 24 hours of my posting, so, if anything, the website works too well!

One of the respondents wrote that they could not believe that we needed to find someone to do a voice over in LA since there should be plenty to choose from. To that I would respond that while there might be tons of local people here who could and would help us, finding them is a whole other challenge. That is where your service helps no matter where you are from.

We ended up working with Craig Burnett who we found via Voices.com

Thank you,

Renewed at Voices.com after reviewing my business history

Hello,

I have discovered that when reviewing Voices.com business history, I overlooked 1 ongoing client which I got thru Voices. I also wonder if there were others too?

Therefore I have subscribed for one more year.

On review, my criticism of your site was harsh. That is due to the oddballs who have contacted me through you and my poor batting average with Voices.com. compared with other websites and my agents. It just didn't add up.

I was flabbergasted that I could not justify $199! Well, I discovered at least one client won through Voices.com and I have earned thousands as a result. So - it is a no brainier to re-up.

Business is business after all.

Please accept my apologies, and note I have always appreciated your customer service and web design.

Cheers,

Invaluable Information and Great Presentation

Hi Stephanie and Voices.com crew,

I just wanted to tell you what a great presentation David put on at today's e-seminar through the London Small Business Centre.

David was very professional and informative. It was also good to see how a successful company like Voices.com is benefiting striving voiceover artists like myself in other ways!

The seminar as a whole was invaluable information to me and worth every penny.

It was a pleasure meeting David in person finally.

Here's to a prosperous future!

Cheers!

Voices.com provides a business environment with sensitivity to the artist

Thanks David and Laurynda for the assistance you provided for my Mac PC.

I was so dissatisfied with another online service that I not only let my subscription lapse, but cancelled off that site completely. Conversely, although I still haven't gotten a gig yet at Voices.com. (I am confident it will happen soon), you and your staff always go 110% out of the way to help and service.

And, Voices.com; remains positive, uplifting, doesn't give me a feeling that I'm not good enough, or set rules that can't be understood, or rate me on a computer system that cannot be understood, doesn't threaten in any way, doesn't ask twice if I really want to submit an audition (really), and always provides me auditions in all budget ranges that I request.

In short, Voices.com provides a business environment with sensitivity to the artist. I like that.

A Red Letter Day

It was a RED LETTER DAY here at Silver Tongued Angels. We got our first job on VOICES.COM. We have worked hard, taken advice from your staff and it really feels good.

My hat's off to all the good people at Voices.com. You have provided blogs, newsletters, books, articles and even personalized help. When I really needed help, you folks took a look at my information and my profile and made a few KEY suggestions.

Well it made all the difference. Our first job was not a trailer for the next "Terminator" film so Don will sleep well tonight....but it was a great Narration job for us that fits my Voice to a "T".

Thanks for everything....I am so stoked!!!

Love the site!

A couple years ago, I decided to join Voices.com to expand my voiceover career. To be honest, the first 8-9 months or so were kinda slow....I was a little discouraged. Wound up, it was my own fault (I wasn't auditioning like I should have)

I decided to make more of an effort to audition the next year, and since then...things have exploded!

Over the past year, I have had the pleasure of working with clients like Macy's, ESPN, Verizon, and AT & T....all through Voices.com. Thanks guys!

Benefits of upgrading and asking for assistance has paid off!

Hi Laurynda & Happy New Year!

This little note of gratitude is a little over due -not only thanks to all the holiday madness but also in thanks to you upgrading my account and composing that little bit of verbiage for me!

About 30 minutes after upgrading [to Premium] I received three private inquires from my Voices.com site! and all three hired me without an audition. Jan 2 - I received an inquiry from an L.A. production house for a corporate video, but the most exciting news? - a phone call later that day from an ABC affiliate to audition for TV imaging!

Thanks Laurynda! All the best to you in '08!

Nancy Wolfson Helped Me Achieve Success at Voices.com

Hello,

My name is Kevin Lockhart. I am writing to you in regards to Nancy Wolfson, the voiceover coach. About 2 months ago I attended a weekend intensive with her at the DCPA. Since then I have enjoyed much more success than I had previously.

I had subscribed to a "casting" website for a year, and despite my many auditions had not landed a single job. I had even let my subscription lapse. After her weekend intensive, I was inspired to renew my subscription and using her techniques, I've landed four jobs in less than a month on the aforementioned site, and six on another. I did not enjoy this kind of success until Nancy Wolfson came to town.

I am a Nancy Wolfson success story. She was able to turn my luck around in a weekend, and if given the opportunity she could do for many others what she has done for me! Her class was enjoyable, and her methods work... period.

Thank you to David and Stephanie Ciccarelli for founding Voices.com

Wanted you to know how helpful your service and support person, Laurynda Pasma, has been. Her suggestions on marketing were on target. Within one week of joining Voices.Com, I landed my first job. The following week I received a referral email and landed still another job.

To date now, I’ve contact 23 Los Angeles talent agencies directing them to my Voices.Com web page. In addition, I’ve contacted 16 Hollywood casting agencies and have received several responses. Took your advice on marketing and notched it up one step further. I am now on Facebook, SAG iActor Casting Directory, Blinklist, B121.Com, AboutUs.org, Linkedin.com, and Del.icio.us to mention a few of the marketing websites that now have mention of Voices.Com from my link.

This success story also has a human interest side to it. As a single mom, this year my teenage son has suffered a debilitating illness. My voice work is a blessing to pay for unexpected medical bills, medication and tutors for this home-bound high school student of mine. Next year when you’re passing out those “Voicey Awards” for marketing one’s business, I am living proof that my Angel Wings Productions has launched with flying colors. I am so hopeful everyday when those audition emails arrive. Blessings to you all.

Voiceover Experts is one of The Most Important Resources for Voice Actors on the Internet Today

At the risk of sounding like I'm "kissing up to folks" (though there would be no benefit in doing so that I am aware of), I want to boldly state that Voiceover Experts is one of the most important resources for voice actors on the internet today.

Getting "real-world" instruction and insight from working professionals at the click of a mouse is truly impressive. I have yet to come away from any of these installments empty handed.

Here's what I find to be true regarding Voiceover Experts:

-The beginner hits a GUSHER.

-The intermediate bathes in the joy of an abundance of bite-size nuggets that fit so nicely in the mouth of the lesser experienced.

-The professional always walks away with "sticky notes" to remind & challenge them in any number of areas.

I so appreciate the time and effort put forth in bringing these valuable resources to my desktop!

I emailed Voices.com on Sunday, asking for help with a potential client whom I was trying to send an email back to, but [the email] kept coming back to me.

A Voices.com team member also tried emailing for me, and gave me a website they found for this client and studio phone number for the radio station this individual owns.

Anyway, I just wanted to send a "THANK YOU!"

I ended up talking on the phone to the radio station owner (QFM, Key West, FL) and he hired me last night to be the voice of one of his advertisers for his station! Mark me down again for another "recently hired' :) Yay!
