Choose the Right Platforms
Focus your efforts on platforms that are relevant to your industry and target audience.

Make sure you do your research and identify the platforms that are most commonly used by your target audience.
Optimise Your Profiles
Make sure your social media profiles are complete and optimised to attract potential clients. Use a professional headshot or profile picture, write a compelling bio highlighting your experience and skills, and include relevant keywords to help you appear in search results.
Tip: Include a link to your website or online portfolio to make it easy for potential clients to learn more about you.
Share Your Work
Create short video clips of your voice-over demos and post them on your social media channels. This will give potential clients a taste of your skills and make it easy for them to share your work with others as well.
Engage with Your Audience
Social media is all about building relationships and engaging with your audience.
Make time to respond to comments and messages, and actively seek out opportunities to connect with potential clients. Share valuable content and insights related to the voice-over industry, participate in relevant conversations, and offer your expertise whenever possible.
Use Hashtags to Boost Your Visibility
Use relevant hashtags in your posts to help potential clients find your content more easily.
For example, you could use hashtags such as #voiceoverartist, #voiceacting, or #voiceoverdemo to help you reach potential clients who are searching for voice actors online.
