Here are Rates for Radio Spots - 1 of the 14
Industry Genres you will have free access to:

LOCAL

  • Small Market (e.g. one town on Long Island) - $50 to $200
  • Large Market (e.g. Boston or New York City) - $150 to $400

REGIONAL

  • $200 to $500

NATIONAL

  • $500 to $1,000 or standard Union rates

TAGS (5 to 10 seconds)*

  • Local - $25 to $100
  • Regional - $75 to $200
  • National - $100 to $300 or standard Union rates

* Note: The payment for one tag is included with the payment for the spot. HOWEVER COMMONLY you will be requested to record multiple tags along with the one spot. It is industry practice that you are paid “per tag” for all additional tags. We strongly suggest that you clarify this with the client prior to recording.

NOTES

  • If you record multiple spots in one session you should be paid separately for each spot.
  • Rates through subscription audition sites (such as Voice123.com) may vary significantly.
  • Consider offering a discount for a series of spots.
  • Consider offering scratch tracks for free or for a heavily discounted rate.
  • An “unlimited buy-out” may pay more than a “one-year buy-out”.

IMPORTANT: Edge Studio put together the following rates as pure suggestions for less experienced, non-union talent. Rates reflect average and realistic rates being fairly charged within the industry, and do NOT include editing. PLEASE USE THIS ONLY AS A GUIDE – rates vary from city to city, client to client, job to job, and voice talent to voice talent.
