This site came recommended on someone's YouTube channel as a free site to make money from home so I had to check them out. Upon scrolling through their website, it screams SCAM on all levels whether you're either a client or a talent. (Trust me, in this day & age of doing so much online work, companies like these are easier to spot from a mile away.) They do offer "free" services, not unlike other sketchy online money-making websites, and their extortionate membership fees of $499 and $2,999 per year are immediate red flags.
You may claim I'm misjudging them but I don't want you to experience the unnecessary headaches of these online scams. When a business model is out there to help people, you can tell. When it is there to make money at all cost, you can also tell. Never mind whatever it is promising you, that is just the bait.

This website is being run by people who are in it to make money, period. From my years of working online, such people will take advantage of you whether you're a job seeker or job provider. Ethics are non-existent & you should only proceed to work with them if you do not mind getting ripped off.
Because of my experiences on several online platforms like voices.com, I am taking the time write this review because I am tired of dishonest people enriching themselves over job-seekers & the employers who are honestly trying to help them.
If you're looking for talent, post on a legitimate job-search website. If you're looking for work, do the same - post your services on freelance sites or find a legitimate agency to work with. Do the hard work yourself. Avoiding the hard work is what gives these "companies" the opportunity to take advantage of you. Stay away from sites that promise a bed of roses and throw out sketchy "clauses" or vague conditions instead of being upfront and transparent with you. You'll be better off.

Hi Millie,

Thanks for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that this is your assessment of Voices after looking at our website.

We’d encourage you and anyone interested in other perspectives to check out the multiple 5-star reviews on this and other review sites from both clients and talent who have found success on Voices year after year and who speak to the way they’re supported in their endeavors by our staff, who genuinely care about the success of every person who uses our platform.

For clients, posting a job is always free on our site, and for talent, our free guest membership provides the opportunity to build up their profile, add demos/portfolio samples, and be privately invited to jobs.

Talent on our platform find a great deal of value in what we provide and find this to be a highly efficient way to book work.

We encourage talent to diversify their income streams and offer Voices as one tool—there will be those who find it’s all they need and those who wish to use Voices in addition to other platforms or other opportunities they seek out on their own. Everything comes with a cost of money or time. Our goal is to connect clients with the best talent, and talent with the best job opportunities.
