How to Price Voice Over

Pricing voice over can feel confusing but it doesn’t have to be. Use this straightforward guide to simplify the process and set a budget that attracts the right talent.

Non-Broadcast Jobs

These are projects that are not tied to advertising, think training videos, explainer content, podcasts, or internal communications.
They’re typically priced per word or per finished minute. Price may vary depending on the experience of the voice actor, length of script and project type.

Broadcast Jobs

Broadcast work includes anything with paid promotion behind it, TV, radio or online ads.
Pricing here is based on usage, including:
Location: where it’s airing
Duration: how long it’s running
Platform: TV, radio or online
Because these ads reach larger audiences, they come with higher rates to fairly compensate the talent for their voice’s exposure and impact.

Frequently Asked Questions

How to calculate voice over rate?

Voice over rates are primarily based on the type of project: broadcast or non-broadcast.

Broadcast jobs, which include any project with paid media behind it, are priced according to usage. Factors like where the voice will be heard, how it will be used, and for how long all impact the cost. The broader the reach, the higher the rate.

Non-broadcast jobs, such as internal training videos or eLearning, are generally priced per word or per finished minute.

When you post a job on Voices, you’ll receive custom budget recommendations tailored to your project. You can also refer to the GVAA Rate Guide or download the Voices Rate Guide for more insight.
