How much would you charge to read a text for my videos?

8 replies
Guys, I'm running into some kind of a trouble and asking for advice.

My niche is quitting smoking. I have just published my first squeeze page (it's my first IM experience) and planning to create 2-3 videos to promote it using Mogul and Traffic Geyser.

The problem is that I'm not a native speaker and thus cannot read text for my videos. Well in fact I CAN but I don't think that my accent will make people to think that I'm trustworthy guy in terms of buying something I promote.

Hence I ask you guys to place your bids on how much would you charge for 5 minutes of spoken text.



Thanks!

    If I were you -- which I'm not -- I would head over to Fiverr.com and hire someone. There's some pretty talented people on there, and they all charge just $5.00. Go here:

    Ditto what Paul said. There's no way in hell I'd trust
    the future of my product to anyone who would do it
    for 5 bucks.

    I like to do it myself. Even people with heavy accents do it themselves man, that adds to the personal touch. It is a very effective strategy that Ewen Chia uses

      Correct me if I'm wrong but you must be indian (and thus you're not a native english speaker just like me), right?

      Yes, I can do it myself, I'm just worrying that I wouldn't able to build trusty relationships with people from my list. I can hardly believe that they would trust someone who's not even able to speak natively (though I could be wrong)... Yet to buy something I promote or making reviews of. I think they simply wouldn't BELIEVE me.

      Another one problem is that I've already created a fiction native english speaking person as an author of my newsletter. Now I got only 2 subscribers (which are Warrior Forum members to my shame) and I'm really considering revealing myself but just don't know how to do that right.

      I'd like to record some videos with my own mug and my own accent in them but I'm really afraid I would probably ruin all the things I've made so far (not too much, actually, but I'm noob and hence all of my little victories are pretty valuebly for my).

      Please post your answer here or PM me. I really want to know your opinion as a non-native speaker.
