What We Learned from Six Months of Artist Onboarding at Audiobird
The last six months have been an enlightening time at Audiobird, offering us many insights into the world of audio art and into the hearts of artists and experts. During this time, we’ve learned a lot about the challenges and opportunities shaping our industry.
Market Fears and the AI Revolution
One of the most striking findings was the palpable concern prevailing in the market. The rapid development of AI technologies has triggered uncertainty – a fear of the unknown that we take very seriously. Additionally, there have been some negative experiences with established online platforms and concerns that the decline in pricing for audio services might continue.
The Importance of a Clear Licensing Model
What we have taken away is the importance of a transparent licensing model for our artists. This is a component we have improved and implemented in recent weeks to ensure that the terms are clear and licenses can be easily configured by both customers and experts. The Gagenkompass from VDS, which is actually designed exclusively for speaker services, has played an important role here.
An Opportunity for Artists
We are aware that many artists work hard to earn their living with their art. The fact that falling prices for voiceover jobs can be a challenge has inspired us to shape Audiobird as a platform that places top-notch quality, fair value, and genuine recognition at the forefront. We are determined to create a space where the talent and hard work of all audio artists are appropriately acknowledged.
Together Towards a Hopeful Future
Despite all challenges, there is reason for optimism. A heartfelt thanks goes to all the artists at Audiobird who have taken the step to create a profile and actively contribute to shaping a better future. Your commitment, even in uncertain times, motivates us to make Audiobird the best online platform for audio artists.
Our Commitment to Continuous Improvement
At Audiobird, the focus is on constant evolution, in collaboration with you and our customers. Our goal is to provide a platform that is equally valuable for artists, experts, and advertisers. We plan to stay agile, incorporate your insights, and work towards ensuring artists are adequately recognized. At Audiobird, the creative forces behind the scenes are always at the forefront.
Together Into the Future
