Dear all,

Can you please, help me?

I have an offer for a VO job, which, by the way, I have never done before. I need to translate the text and will be paid as a translation per word. But, the client asked me about my rate for VO and I did not know anything about it. Is it charging per minute?
What is the usual rate in such a job?
Thank you all in advance.

Between 10 to 12 € per minute if it's an agency, at least twice as much for a direct client.
