David Ciccarelli OUT! And Why That’s BAD for Voice Actors
Subscribe now at: / @vo-pro Two weeks ago I said that Voices was getting desperate and ten days later they ousted their CEO, David Ciccarelli.
I hate to say I told you so, but…
Earlier this week, Voices made the following announcement:
Dear Valued Customers and Friends,
Today, we share some bittersweet news as we bid farewell to a cherished member of our team, David, who has been at the helm of Voices.com, Inc. as its chief executive officer for the past 18 years.
Since founding Voices.com, David and his wife Stephanie have been instrumental in nurturing and growing the community and building the marketplace.
His dedication and leadership have been integral to our success and we are immensely grateful for the journey we have shared under his guidance.
David's decision to step down as CEO was not made lightly.
So, what does this mean for Voices going forward? And more importantly, what does it mean for voice actors?
Spoiler alert: It ain’t good for anybody.
