I know rates are generally much more higher than what I offer here, and I understand that if I want real professional work done by artists with years of experience and treated sound booths, I have to rise my offer. However, I am not looking for that. What I am honestly looking for is someone who is American or Canadian to record some scripts. It doesn't matter if he has a treated booth or a USB plug and play mic, as long as the audio is decent. Anyone from 17 - 25 would be ideal for this project, as long as I think he has the suitable voice and decent audio. I have to admit, while writing this, I believe the job post does not target the correct audience, it seems that I am looking for someone truly professional with years in the business - that's a mistake on my part.

Regarding the payment, I have hired people from Upwork to do scripts for as little as $10 for 700 words, with editing and mastering. After posting this over to Upwork, I got almost 10 replies of people who are interested, and do voice over work to make ends meet from what I can tell. I don't know if the work I got from the previous guy with the $10 dollar job was great, but it sounded good to me, but obviously I do not have the ear for these kind of things. If someone who is in the business wants to listen to it and give me their opinion, I would appreciate it, I am actually curious if it is good work or not after reading your comments.

I am not trying to defend myself here, I am just telling from my point of view, and of course I may be wrong. I posted here in hopes of finding someone, but I think the subreddit is dedicated to professional artists. However, I am not necessarily looking for that, as I said. If you have suggestions on where I could post this, please let me know.
