Answer
According to me, the “definitive guide” to fair pay in voiceover starts with these baselines:
- Most working pros won’t step in the booth for less than $100
- Experienced talent typically start around $150+ per job
- Beginners should still aim for about $75–$100 for small gigs
- Union rates are the gold standard, often $250–$500+ to start, with bigger projects easily hitting $1,000+
Remember, you are charging for skill, time, and your studio, not just “reading words.”
What level are you at right now—beginner, intermediate, or working pro?
