I'm a preferred member of voices.com and I'm curious if anyone noticed an increase in private leads after upgrading to the premium membership. There don't seem to be any other benefits, so I'm wondering if that's worth the extra $10 a month above the preferred.

I haven't noticed a difference.

Looking at the chart on their site there doesn't seem to be that much of an advantage to go from preferred to premium.

I thought you got your audition bumped ahead of all the preferred people if you paid the extra cash?

The main difference between Premium & Preferred is your placement in the "search rankings" (the 4th row in the chart)

Premium talent will come up before Preferred talent

I just upgraded yesterday...so don't know if it'll make a difference yet...one can always hope! Laugh

Hi. I've been a premium member since joining there in 2005. I can say I get private leads but can't verify it's strictly because of the premium membership status. It may help. I know it doesn't hurt, and overall, it's paid for itself.

Are there stats as to how many Premium to Preferred members there are?

I'm sure there are...but I don't think they're for public consumption.

We could always make a poll on the site here and get a flavor for it.

Deirdre, would this be OK? (I've been bad in the past, trying to be good now)

I dunno about the necessity of a poll, but if someone wants to try for a bigger drift than we have here, they can make a poll in the Entre Nous section.

Thank you for your concern, Bob.

I thought of a poll just because we can see the results tabulate automatically instead of doing a hand count. If we go over 10, I'd have to take my shoes off.

I agree, Entre Nous section.
