Version 2.5: This Weekend & Going Forward

Hello everyone!

I am Steven, Quality Assurance Manager with Voice123 & Voiceover Talent. I wanted to send you a quick note before version 2.5 is released this weekend, and also give you some much needed information about the 'Audition and Proposal Rating System'.

First, I would like to reassure you that you will be given instructions on how to proceed this weekend through emails from our team at Voice123. Please read each one very carefully! We expect a high volume of chats, phone calls, and emails. We will strive to reply to each and every request, quickly & efficiently!

Being a talent myself, I am very proud & confident in the changes to the Talent Voice Producer profile, and even more confident in the fellow peers who are currently beta-testing it. They are sending us their wonderful, professional suggestions. From what we have seen, we at Voice123 are grateful for their participation!

Secondly, an update about the Audition Proposal & Rating system. Your comments & suggestions have been heard, and I have been discussing this in detail with you and internally with staff.

So...what now?

Going forward:
We will be applying changes to the 'rating system' that are more transparent both for talent voice producers & voice seekers.
We will get through the release of Version 2.5, and begin working on those changes shortly thereafter. Details will be available for you when the changes take place.

Lastly, we appreciate your patience & comments over the past months, and ask that you understand that the intention was to give you information on how to improve your chances of booking voiceover work while using the site. We know we have many professionals on Voice123, many of which inspired me to go into voiceovers 15 years ago.

Here I am now at Voice123. I feel blessed to be able to give back to the voiceover community that I have always cherished, and desired to help. I am even taking Alex Torrenegra to my voiceover coaching lessons now in NYC!

Thank you so much for reading!

Your QA Manager,
