lol shadedream. i should edit that to just say that it just needs to be someone who can speak well, no accent, female, 40ish.
viva, actually, i don't really know... lol. i would say its really, mostly no accent at all. except that, whenever i travel, i always get people asking me where my "accent" is from. and, when i say california, they always nod their head and get this knowing look on their face like it should have been obvious to them. i swear that i don't think i have one at all. =P
sexy, i actually tried that. i used the male voice with my girlie voice and it came out sounding like a older woman, which worked pretty well for the profile i'd put on odesk. i had enough guts to call a few times and leave a message, but they never pick up -- i think they want to call you. anyways, i've lost my nerve, which is why i want to hire someone. (im not too concerned about the voice in the phone message as it was a short message and they sound busy enough that as long as they talk to someone who doesn't have an accent and sounds like an older woman, it should be fine.)
probably i should just let this go since i started it and can't finish it, but, i thought if maybe someone wanted a quick buck...
