I accepted an offer of a 20-percent discount to join Voice123, which took $79 off the full rate. However, accepting the discount also disqualified me from cancelling after 30 days, as allowed with payment at the full rate. Sorry to say, I have wasted my money and my time. Invitations to submit auditions apparently are based on the number of job offers and "likes" a voice actor receives from clients. In a curious twist, it seems that the more submissions you make that are not liked or accepted, the fewer invitations you receive. In other words, the more you try and fail, the fewer chances you're given to try again. I have received about a half-dozen invitations over the past few days, and most are for paltry sums or for voices that do not match my profile. (Recent projects request submissions from African Americans, which I am not, and from French speakers, which I am not). Had I paid the full amount, I would have cancelled. As it is, I am out $316 and no longer bother to submit proposals.
