We recently made an important change on the way you answer leads. It is now required to send remarks when you answer a job posting. This change pretends to help you increase your chances of winning a job.
Many talents write excellent comments when they send their answer demos. When talent seekers retrieve their answers, they see which talents wrote remarks and which didn’t. Sending a remark is an excellent way of breaking the ice with the talent seeker. This might help the talent seeker decide what demos to hear.
It is good to send a well-written comment when auditioning for a job. Talent seekers do read these comments and you can catch their attention depending on what you write here.
The issue is what to write. To learn more about the benefits of writing remarks and what to write, click here to read an article in Voice123’s Resource Center.

Recommendations For Talent Seekers
We know how important it is for you to find the most professional voice over talents, and that you have a time and budget requirements to match.
Here are some recommendations and advices for you to keep in mind when posting a job and using our site:
· When you post a public job, which will be received by voice talents that match your job criteria, it is important to know when to request custom demos or generic demos. In general, only public jobs that have a minimum budget of $100 are accepted to request custom demos.
· If you still want to have a custom demo to better choose a voice talent and your budget is lower than $100, we recommend you to first post a public job and then post private leads to the talents you liked requesting the custom demo.
· When you post a public job, your contact information (name, email, and phone number) is never shown to the talents. Talents will only be able to contact you through the site. Your contact information is only received by us in case we need to contact you.
· If you need to change the email you have registered in your Voice123 account, you can go to the My Contact Info section of your account and update your email address. You don't have to create a new account to receive answers and communications in a different email address.
· When you post a job and type an email different to the one you have used before on our site, a new account will be automatically created. This means that you will end up with two accounts on our system. This might create confusions when retrieving answers to your postings. To avoid this, always use the same email or log in before posting a job.

Voice123 Is Talent Seekers' Little Secret
We know many talent seekers have their own clients and Voice123 wants to help them offer excellent services. One way to do this is letting talent seekers' clients listen to voice demos sent by talents replying to a job posting.
Many talents allow talent seekers to have their demos downloaded to their computers, but sometimes the talents prefer not to. That is why we have an option to send a link that you, as a talent seeker, can send to your clients and let them listen to the demos without downloading them to a computer. The benefit is that it won't reveal that the demo actually comes from Voice123 as it uses a different domain name.
This was the topic of our last newsletter for talent seekers. We would like to know your opinion about this feature, if you really find it useful, or if you have any other suggestions regarding this topic.
Thanks for your comments.
