How I Started Voice Over on Fiverr and Made $1500+ a Month 

I've been working on my voice acting for a while now, but haven't managed to get anywhere with it professionally. I've decided to give Fiverr a try and just put out my first gig. It definitely needs work, but having this as a start is still better than nothing.

I've been listening to a lot of videos on how to get started in voiceover, and this has been the best. Very clear and simple.

I feel blessed to have found this video- I gave it a like, and I'm going to show this to a loved one who could benefit immensely from the content you covered in this video. Thank you SO MUCH for filming and posting this! 😊👍

I'm just starting out and your content is amazing! Thank you for the advice, suggestions and links!

It's nice to hear the face of this voice cuz I think I've heard it before xD

Hey thanks for the video! During this quarantine I'm definitely am going to show the world what I'm made of!

I'm truly fortunate to find this video. I'm also at a point in my life where I don't want to do jobs I don't like and work with people I don't get along with. I'm looking to get into voice acting as I've been told I have a good voice and lots of energy. I know it takes more than that to be successful, but I'm willing to get the training to do it. Seeing this video has been extremely helpful.

This is so wonderfully practical. Thank you. So glad to have been led to this video.

Thank you so much for the video. I'm a newbie and currently looking at videos for beginners. This was fantastic! Wishing you continued success!

Did not expect someone I know to come up on my RU-vid feed. Well done mate. Thanks for the vid.

This is something I've been putting off for a long time. Glad to see you've found success. Thanks for the info and inspiration. Wishing you continued success in the future!

I know this video is a little old but I just came across it now because I'm trying to break into the voiceover business. I've taken a course, bought my equipment and practiced recording and editing but I haven't fully completed any of my profiles on sites like ACX, Fiverr, Upwork, and Voices. My issue is that I am so intimidated by how good everyone else is. I don't really know how to create as professional of a demo reel as other people have. In all my research, I have never heard of a "gig video" so that's something else I'm going to need to look into. I will definitely have to check out your other videos about this topic. I like that you are very clear and to the point. Thank you for this video!

Thanks a lot for the tips and the links where we could improve.

Thankyou for this vid! It's really inspiring and helpful :)

Thank you so much for this video! You provided great tools to get started!

Excellent mate.Like a breath of fresh air.

Great info for starters such as myself, much thanks!!

Appreciate the tips. Especially about the starting prices. Thank you.

Great video. Super helpful. Thanks for your help!

Informative and straight to point , new sub!

Wow ... Thank you for some '''real-world''' down to earth, honest tips. Sadly; there is to much crap out there. You-da-man ... Again, thank you. William (Hampshire UK)

Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful experience and for the fabulous tips. I wish you much more success in the future.☺️

Great info! Thank youuuu!

This video was excellent...it is a great primer for organizing and actuating a career...I'm very glad I found your site...thank you...

Just before Covid started my husband and I started talking about doing voice overs. He has started submitting some auditions and we got some equipment (which we haven’t set up yet). I’m very excited to watch your videos on setting up a fiverr business. Thank you for making these videos!

Oh my! This is very helpful!!! I will start now! 😍

I get why. You have a great voice. I want to get started with voice over and I'm trying to learn as much as possible. I bought a cheaper setup just to start.

Love the way you speak 🗣️

Great video - thank you!

This was amazing info. Thanks for sharing!!

Thanks so much for your guidance!

This is the ultimate video on this topic

Hey! Just wanted to say that was such a well organized and highly informative video! You’re super helpful and so straight forward!, thank you!

As someone who's new to Fiverr and on a VERY tight budget, I think my Note 9 honestly has exceptional recording. I've been playing around doing voices of my characters and existing characters that sound pretty good. I live in an apartment so I have to record in my car at 12 AM or later in the morning. It's the best time to do so and soooo much fun to go back and listen to and be like "Holy crap, I can actually do that voice!" 😂 I keep forgetting that my own normal voice someone else might like to use not just cartoon voices so I'm super excited to begin this journey. 💜💜💜

Thanks for the details....helps us starting novices🙏

I just got blankets and foam to wall up a studio. Should be starting soon

Great job informing us with all the beneficial tips, Faulks! What's that awesome background music if you don't mind sharing?

So informative! The big thing for me is not caring for the sound of my own voice... But I have recently heard that what I might hear isn't the same as what OTHERS hear. Knowing this makes me believe I CAN do it. Doesn't hurt to try right?

This is such great advice. Thank you thank you thank you

You are the most believable on RU-vid because your sound quality is PRISTINE. The proof is in the pudding...

Thanks for the tips!

The Rodecaster Pro is what I use for my podcast. We’ve had some sound issues, however, anybody who has listened to the show has told me I have a perfect voice for this endeavor. The show is off the cuff, non-scripted and me being me. I’m running Sterling SMK150SP condenser mics. I use a canon t7 camera and built a studio in my home. The space has a decent sound but I need to do something else to improve. I feel my voice is too deep, too baritone, but people compliment it. It’s odd to get compliments as I’ve always been the “quiet guy” in a room. It was difficult to begin doing this, but I did. I’m comfortable on the mic now, and would like to start doing voice over work. Perhaps give me a listen and some advice if you have time or the inclination. I enjoyed your video. Thank you.

The thing that im afraid is the equipment the software etc...please make a video on that...

Thank you for this video. I’m considering starting a gig for voice acting hopefully for indie games. I really enjoy playing and discussing games and recently purchased a new mic for my setup and wondering if I can put it to good use and make some side income. I liked and subbed to your channel. Thank you for your vids!

Am so so new to this!!! I love to do voice over

I might give this a try. Ive already got a Neewer mic for recording music :p

Excellent video

Thank you so much for the video

Great video!! I just started VO training and I'll be recording my professional demos later this year. I have 2 mics: RE20 & SHURE SM7B with a Rodecaster Pro. I'll definitely look into Fiverr

Good video. I do have a Fiverr page but tend not to crow about it as the voiceover industry is very disapproving of it.

You. Are the man!

Thank you so much for sharing!❤️ God bless, Faulks Digital.🙏

Great tips man! I'm not a VO artist by any means, but I did my very first voice over on my latest video on my channel!

I picked up the Rode Podcaster used for $80 on FB Marketplace, and I love it. It's great for spaces that aren't treated as well.

I love man!

I am starting out in VO work. I have mic and all. What's best way to start PROMOTING yourself. Like literally the very first thing you did like build profile wise- Reel? Also are there any apps you can practice with other actors just for fun and or professional experience ? Maybe one you can audition in.

thanks for all the great tips! now if only i could get past actually starting, i'm not sure what exactly, but i'm having a hard time not procrastinating lol

Woow thank you... It's inspiring... I wish if I'd be successful i could see you soon personally

thank you for the tips.. ! its really helpful... But where could I sign up?

Hi Josh! I just completed watching all of your videos and can't wait to get started now. Could you make a video on how you set up your studio? or how can we set up our own studio at a low level with min budget? Much appreciated

very very helpful tips.

Thanks for the video! Do you recommend any courses/tutorials to learn more on voice overs?

This is really helpful

Is a Sennheiser MD46 microphone coupled to a tascam recorder good enough for this kind of job? I would rather use this microphone on street interviews but I'm stuck at home and would not want to let the gear go to waste.

This is a really good material, and they way you break it down is also really easy to understand. But I guess the biggest issue with me is my accent, I am not an English native speaker although I am fluent. And I do not have a consistent accent that adheres to either American, British or Australian accent. Do you think it will still sell on Fiverr?

Killin it man solid keep it up!

Just signed up with fiverr beginning vo talent

Yes I have used Reaper for years now!!

That's awesome my friend you got a new friend here hoping to grow together.

thank you man

But why not just a good sm57 tho? Great video. I agree, reaper is wonderful. Thank you

Hey man @Faulks Digital, just wanted to reach out and say liked the video and the information you gave. I wanted to inquire about what type of headphones you had around your neck? I have had the Sony MDR-7506 for several years and I am extremely disappointed as this is my second pair that the material on the ear cushions have been cracking and ending up all around my home studio and stuck to my ears. LOL. I would like to upgrade to something that shares more of a cloth/silky material like the ones you have so I don't have to potentially worry about replacing ear muffs again and again as I've already replaced these once with the same outcome of the material cracking. If you wouldn't mind letting me know, I'd greatly appreciate it! -Matt

Amazing video, but one thing I'd definitely change is your "lowest" price for condenser microphones. The Lewitt LTC 440 Pure is only $269 and it absolutely crushes many of the 400-600$ microphones I've heard. This is just one company of a handful that really makes nice condenser microphones for around 150-300$. TL;DR . . . You don't need 400$ for a "low" end condenser microphone.

I heard some nice S sounds thanks for the tips

I just found your video!!! Good stuff bro! I just got some training with voiceover and I plan on signing up with fivver! But, I wanted to ask you and hopefully you read this! The mic I have is a rode nt usb!! Is that a good mic to use?

I notice you have a pop-filter on your Aston microphone. Do you find that the built-in filter of the Aston is inadequate, or are you just particular about you specific sound?

Hi , from where can i take the script for voice over demo? though i can speak some advertisement ads script but need your suggestion. Please reply.

Excellent presentation! Quick question: Is iCE USB microphone a good starter mic?

I made a fiverr account so long ago. And I have been trying to get on there again and cannot seem to figure out how to create new gig offers. Someone help me! Nice video btw.

Thank you for the video! I want to work as a voice over artist, but my English pronunciation is not perfect as I’m Ukrainian , I have a bit of accent. Do you think it might be a problem or I should try anyway?

I love yr voice 😍

This was great thank you I really enjoyed it. I have set up my fiver account and got some gigs advertised. Do you do any sort of review service to see what I need to change and improve on to start making sales? Thanks again for the great content. James

I have a Blue Yeti, Lenovo LT, I-phone 13 and decent Cans (bluetooth) to start. To record my first 'Gig', how to marry these any or all of these things up and get r done? I do in fact want to start 'today'. My Fiverr account is set up and waiting for my Gig. Thanks!

Thank you thank you

Some feedback: I'm a musician, and I find music backgrounds in what I expect to be an instructional video to be extremely annoying. I find it difficult *not* to listen to music (even music I don't like), and that, in turn, makes speech harder to follow.

May you please tell me the title for that music playing in the background

wow i am start doing it

Can you please provide some links from where you got your equipment. Including the walls for the sound. Thanks!

Hi. I did professional voice coaching I had demos done in the studio I have a rode nt1a microphone, a place to record, my coaches and producer said my demos were great and I've been on Fiverr for several months now and haven't gotten one bite. What do you suppose the issue is?

Is a voice-over gig something that sounds like demos on fiverr or I should deliver a product where my voice is already over some video or whatever they might send me?

Do you recommend the blue yeti for starters or not?

what do you recommend as far as receiving scripts with fiverr there tends to be very questionable users on there that get blocked as soon as they contact you. how do you receive scripts to ensure you are not getting malware or viruses?

I would like to know, what microphone are you using?

Where are the product links?

Hi, I just watched your video on how to start a voice over. I believe I have a nice voice and I want to serve it to the world. Just today, I also came across Fiverr, where I can make voice over videos and make money afterwards. Thanks for the tips you shared. However, I need more directions. Can you do that for me? 🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬

i have a good singing voice could you give me an advice how to start online and im entristing to start voice over too

As I'm going to spring for a pc setup soon, is there something specific I need for it to support an xlr mic?

I do voice acting but cant do it at home because noise from nabors, how do I block out there noise and stop them hearing Me?

I could listen to Josh for hours...

I have a Samson Go Microphone What do you think?
