I came here seeking the answer to the same question that the original poster posted, but with follow-up questions.....I read in the TOS that we are to have Professional Liability/Indemnity Insurance but my questions are as follows: I am JUST starting out in voiceover - I have not had a single job just yet, currently awaiting my first order amongst all the scammers. How much coverage do I need? How is that determined? When should I get insurance coverage? Is that something that you get before your first job or after you begin to make a certain amount (to justify the cost of the insurance)? I am new to Fiverr and the Voiceover industry as well so please be kind with your replies. I will acquire the insurance as soon as I have more information that I hope to obtain in this thread.

I just got one of these myself. Asked me to set up 3 gmail accounts and then use one to set up google voice for $196. I suppose I can expect a certain amount of that being new here. Thanks

I posted my first gig a few days ago. I then paused it to figure out some issues & edit it. I just made it active again a few minutes ago. So far, during the short time that it was active before I paused it, I received 2 impressions and 1 click but was never able to find it when searching as a buyer when it was active originally & I cannot find it now either. Since its my first gig & i've had no orders yet, the issue, for me anyway, is most likely not due to private negative feedback. I'd appreciate any thoughts or help.

So I think I've got it figured out for the most part - thank you all so much for your help!! I'm still not sure why I was instructed to use Headliner.app to pair the audio with the image I created when that was what was throwing me off the whole time but that will have to be a matter for another day. As for right now, my gig is active but I'm not able to find it when I search using keywords - any thoughts on that?? I'd like to be able to find it to be sure that potential buyers can as well. Other than that, I'm off to the forum to see if I can find out what exactly impressions are and everything else I need to know about them....

Ok. Thank you for the advice. I'll try to figure it out when I get home to the laptop that all of my files are saved to. I have paused the gig until I can figure it out as I'd like to make sure that all of my other changes that I made last night are saved and it appears that they are not so I will have to re-do all of that when I do figure this out anyway. I had looked at other gigs in that category but I must not have paid attention to whether they had a video or audio on top of a picture. Now that I look, that may be what it is. I'm guessing that the audio is required but the video is optional & I just use the audio section for my mp3. I guess if that's how it is done, then I wonder why I was directed by a popular voiceover artist to use Headliner.app to create a video when I do not need a video for the voiceover category.....Anyway, I will play with again when I get home. Thanks again.

I apologize for not getting back sooner - I apparently am only allowed to post or reply 5 times per day & was unaware that that was a thing. I suppose I'll have to make the best of my 5 posts/replies today. That is also the reason behind the length of this post - I must get it all out at once so that everyone understands what I'm seeing in order to help more efficiently. I'm apologize again that I am very new to this and not sure how to create a screenshot in order to share it. I'm at work right now & on a PC so I'm not really able to figure that out at the moment. If someone would post how to take a screenshot on a PC & on a laptop, I would appreciate it. The best I can do is to use the print screen function and then upload it here. I'm sorry that is a terrible way to get that done but I'm desperate to get help without wasting my remaining posts/replies for the day. I don't think it shows any personal info but it does not show my images, of which I have 3. It seems that the work I did to edit my gig last night helped a bit because I already have had 2 impressions (still researching what those are) and 1 click so that's good, i think, but what I'm afraid of is that what the buyers are seeing is obviously not up to par as I cannot even get my stuff uploaded. I'm not sure if I should pause the gig until I can get this issue resolved so that what buyers are seeing & hearing is good quality. I did make sure that my video is less than 75 seconds. I'm not sure that the video is the issue now. It was definitely appropriate - it did have company names but they are fake companies or it is a sample demo from voices.com so I don't think that would be an issue. The video uploads just fine but I'm not able to even save the gig because it just brings me back to where I need to upload audio and I have no separate audio to upload - its in the video I created in Headliner. It seems that both a video and an audio are required to go forward. Also, Since the gig is active enough to get impressions & clicks, then I would assume that I could search it but I do not find it. I'd like to see what potential buyers are actually seeing right now since it won't let me fix it but I can't find it. I know this is probably a very simple issue and most likely is my error but I'm stuck and need help quickly! Fiverr _ missjennyvoices _ Edit Gig.pdf

Thanks for all the help so far. I'm home from work and able to fully focus on this issue again now. I definitely do not understand what I'm supposed to do at all. I have uploaded the mp4 I made on Headliner.app to my gig as a video but it is requiring me to add an audio file mp3 as well. I don't understand what audio I would upload there as the only audio I want to use is in my video. I feel like I'm missing something.....

Thank you for the help! I think that was another issue that I had as well. It was over 75 seconds. I've since done a better one that is 71 secs so I should be good there. It certainly shouldn't be inappropriate so I believe that it is truly just the format that it is in.

I used Canva to create an image and then uploaded that & my audio into Headliner.app to pair the two. I believe that the issue is that Headliner produces an mp4 file. I'm not sure how to get the mp4 that Headliner gives me into an mp3 for Fiverr.

Thank you so much for the help! I now wonder HOW to convert the file from mp3 to mp4. It looks like i'll need to download a converter. I'd appreciate any further advice where that is concerned. I'm using a laptop with Windows 11. My initial search brings up a converter on Zamzar.com but I would rather hear how others are doing it. My gig is for voiceover - I don't use video usually so I would probably only use it for gig videos.

Hello all! I have a question about my first gig. It seems that it is up & running even though I wasn't quite ready - I didn't push a Publish button or anything - it just kind of happened after I uploaded the video & edited a few minor details. Anyway, my gig page now shows my gig as active but also says "Video Denied" underneath where it says Active. I'm brand new to this but I have been trying to read the forums when not working on my demo so I did look to see if anyone else has asked this question and it doesn't appear that they have. Anybody know what "Video Denied" means? I'm really hoping that it uploaded ok. I'm not sure how to get it from the mp3 that it gets exported as into the mp4 form that Fiverr wants. It looked like it went through ok but now I'm not so sure. Any thoughts on how I can get it done are appreciated.
