"I would highly recommend any of the coaching services to anyone who is finding themselves a little overwhelmed with the sheer amount of information out there."

George H.
"He’s also very easy to work with, naturally entertaining (dry wit) without trying, which puts you at ease right away."

Debra S.
"You can tell Jay’s a guy who loves what he’s doing - that attitude is infectious, and that’s the kind of guy I want as my coach!"

Of course! The app adjust and adapts to your experience level and goals, making it great for beginners looking for overall guidance and foundational experience or more experienced narrators looking for a sounding board.
You’ll take a brief onboarding quiz that helps to structure your lessons and overall course plan. Then you’re off to the races.
I’ve designed the coursework to provide a solid and comprehensive foundation for any aspiring narrator or self-publishing author to make an audiobook with confidence.
It covers everything from setting up your studio, vocal technique, acting and performance ideas and exercises, full walkthroughs of the technical recording process, as well as discussions on building a career as a narrator.

The app draws upon the coaching materials and learning resources I’ve made over my career—thousands of hours of videos and audio recordings, bespoke programming, written courses—and uses advanced AI models to parse out what matters to you and your performance specifically.
Rather than being a complete substitute for individual coaching, I feel it’s a great supplement—offering guidance and feedback on all aspects of audiobooks so you can take coaching further.
For up to date pricing visit the app’s homepage. Occasionally there will be discounts and sales listed.
There are options for quarterly or annual subscriptions.
I am adamant that in any use of AI full tranparency is necessary.
Here’s the rundown:
1. All of the coaching material and resources are 100% designed and written by me with no use of artificial intelligence, and I own them forever.
2. None of the materials provided either by me as the coach, or you as the learner (ie. videos, text, audio, pictures, etc.) are used in training AI models.
3. I generally avoid AI for a myriad of reasons, primarily because it often represents profit > people. With this app however, it felt the opposite. It helps to facilitate individual learning in a tightly controlled environment, allowing me to hopefully help a wider number of people become professional narrators.
