General Questions

Well you could, but my job as a professional voiceover talent is to make your product or service so tantalizing that customers will JUMP at the chance to purchase it! Can the guy in your office do that? Besides, I can get the job done right the first time and send it back to you within 24 – 48hours in most cases. Easy, right?

Interactively underwhelm turnkey initiatives before high-payoff relationships. Holisticly restore superior interfaces before flexible technology. Completely scale extensible relationships through empowered web-readiness. Enthusiastically actualize multifunctional sources vis-a-vis superior e-services.

Well…
1. You send me your script.
2. Let me know the scope, how and for how long the audio will be used. See Usage and Duration, below.
3. I send you a quote for the project. Retakes and revisions are covered here. (linked to the policies page)
We agree to move forward.
4. We discuss the creative or vocal direction and tone and style of the read you’re looking for.
5. I record, edit, and send you the audio.
6. You sign off the audio or request any retakes.
7. I send the invoice.
8. You pay the invoice.
9. We both shout Hallelujah

Absolutely. You can generate the Zoom link and send it over. On the day of the session, you’ll join by Zoom, direct me live, and hear the audio right off the booth mic. Then I can either send you the raw session or the final, edited file.

Yes, and I have the paid Standard version.

No. A live session is included in your quote if you like to work live.

There are several factors considered for each quote:
1. Genre
What type of project is it? For example, broadcast commercials, corporate narration, explainer video, telephony (IVR or message on hold), eLearning, medical narration, etc.
2. Length
How long is the finished project? This can be measured in time, word count, or page count depending on the genre.
3. Usage
Where and how will the product be used? For broadcast (TV and/or radio, which markets, how many markets, size of markets), web (on a website, for paid web advertising, social media, YouTube, etc), internal corporate use, etc. For a good explanation of usage for those who hire voiceover, click here. If I don’t know the usage, I can’t accurately quote the project.
4. Duration
How long will the voiceover be used? 4weeks? 3 months? 6 months? 1 year?
5. Budget
Hopefully, you’ve done your homework and have a reasonable, fair market value budget in mind. If not, I can provide objective, industry-standard information to educate you on reasonable rates.


TURNAROUND TIME & POLICY

My current average workload allows me to turn around typical projects in one business day or less. If you need extra-tight turnaround, by all means, let’s chat! Larger projects and fully produced pieces (with music, sound effects, etc.) obviously take longer and depend on the scope.

Any way you like.
I can output files in any professional format, and typically deliver them via email, WeTransfer, or Google Drive. If you have another preferred delivery method (Dropbox, etc.), just let me know.

Non-script-correct mistakes on my part are always fixed for free. For the complete policy on retakes and revisions, click here.

I’ve been producing for over 6. years, and can deliver fully produced audio for video, broadcast commercials, presentations, and more. If you’re asking about a fully produced piece (music, sound effects, etc), not just the final voiceover tracks, just let me know.
