Academy Voices in one word… Astonishing
Academy Voices in one word? Astonishing! I’ve completed seven projects with them so far… yes the pic shows 6 but there is one not published yet… and the platform and the people just keep growing and impressing me.
I was fortunate to get beta access to the new site and its narrator tools. It brings together an audio checker, a script-prep tool, an audio-proofing tool, and a tool for creating social media clips from finished books. Narrators also get free codes for books produced through Academy Voices, which are useful for reviews and marketing. Add a growing library of finished books and new auditions appearing daily, and you have a serious asset for any narrator who takes their business seriously. There simply isn’t another platform that brings together so many useful tools and actual paid narration work in one place.
Academy Voices also gives authors and rights holders the option to produce books through a per-finished-hour (PFH) rate, royalty share, or royalty share plus. Books can be distributed through Audible, Spotify, and around 40 other audiobook retailers. Readers can also purchase books directly through Academy Voices, which can mean a better royalty split.
As impressive as all of that is, the people are even more impressive. They are fully committed to 100% human narration, and they genuinely care about the success of the authors and narrators they work with.
Marketing is one area I’m still learning and growing in, and I know many authors and narrators feel the same way. Academy Voices has created tools to make promoting our books easier, build visibility, and help us connect with more readers. That kind of practical support can make a real difference as we work toward stronger sales.
Joining Academy Voices has been one of the best decisions I’ve made for my voice-over and narration business. I’d encourage any narrator—or author considering an audiobook—to give them a try. I’m glad I did, and I think you will be, too
