Hello,
I'm very new to freelance work and wanted to start putting myself out there for some work. I'm interested in doing voice-over/talent work. I just wanted to know if anyone could give me tips or sample cover letters for applying to voice talent jobs (at the beginner level) that would be very appreciated.
I don't have any work that pertains to voice over work so I can't use any as attachments or for a portfolio. I really am just a beginner to freelance work.
Thank you very much for your time!

Hello Everyone,

Hi Syeda,
In the Cover Letter field, you can send a proposal to the client and let them know how you can help them with the project. You can also share some of your skills and experience that are relevant to their project. If your proposal is accepted you will receive a message from your client and a message room will be created where you can continue negotiating with the client. If the client decides to hire you, they will be able to send you an offer as well.
Additionally, you may want to check this page and this thread for great tips for writing Cover Letter.

As someone who is also pretty new to voice over work, I can tell you that prospective clients aren't going to book you without hearing your voice. I would recommend using the gear and software you have so that you are able to submit samples. I did several samples... Narration, IVR, character... It all depends on the type of work you are applying for. If you're applying for someone's phone system, you'll submit your IVR sample.
I hope this helps you get started in your VO journey.
