20 Rosters.
20 Days.
Build the client database your VO career actually runs on.
A structured, done-with-you outreach challenge for voice actors who are ready to stop waiting for work to find them — and start putting themselves directly in front of the people who can hire them.
Doors Open SoonSept 14 – Oct 9, 2027 · Monday to Friday · Weekends off
You have the talent.
You're just not in enough inboxes.
Great voiceover work doesn't go to the most talented person in the room. It goes to the person who showed up, introduced themselves, and stayed on the radar. Building a database of production companies, ad agencies, and casting directors who know your name — and have your demo on file — is one of the most reliable ways to generate consistent VO income.
Here's how the challenge works: you'll reach out to 100 carefully researched contacts. Based on a solid outreach strategy, a realistic goal is landing on 20 rosters — companies who add you to their go-to pool of voice talent. That doesn't mean 20 bookings on day 21. It means 20 doors open that weren't open before. Some respond during the challenge. Others reply two weeks later. A few turn into clients months down the line. This is the upfront work that builds a career — and most voice actors never do it consistently enough to see the payoff.
Most voice actors fall into
one of three traps
The Avoider.
You know you should be doing outreach. You've known for months — maybe longer. But the thought of cold-emailing strangers feels awkward and uncomfortable, so you keep putting it off and hoping auditions will be enough.
The One-and-Done.
You've sent a handful of emails, got no response, and decided cold outreach doesn't work. But a handful of emails isn't a strategy — it's an experiment with no controls. Inconsistency isn't a failed method; it's an untested one.
The Scatter-Shooter.
You send the occasional email when motivation strikes — no system, no follow-up, no tracking. Sporadic outreach gets sporadic results. You're left wondering why it's not working, but the answer is the lack of structure, not the approach itself.
All three traps have one thing in common: there's no system behind them.
That's exactly what this challenge gives you.
20 Rosters. 20 Days.The Voiceover Outreach Challenge
A 4-week, Monday-to-Friday challenge where you'll research 100 target contacts, craft personalized outreach, and work toward landing on 20 rosters — production companies, ad agencies, and casting directors who add you to their go-to pool of voice talent. Daily lessons, done-for-you scripts, and a strategy built from 12+ years of real VO outreach experience.
Here's what you're getting
20 Daily Videos + Action Tasks
A focused video every weekday — covering strategy, mindset, and real tactics — followed by a clear daily action. No overwhelm, no vague advice. You'll know exactly what to do each day.
Customizable Email Scripts
Done-for-you outreach email templates you can personalize, add your details, and hit send with confidence.
Proven Subject Line Formulas
Subject lines built to get your email opened. You'll also learn why subject lines matter more than most VOs think.
Simple Prospect Tracking Sheet
For those who don't currently use a CRM, a spreadsheet template will be provided to track every company, contact, outreach date, and follow-up — so nothing gets lost, and you always know exactly where things stand.
Job Titles PDF — Know Exactly Who to Contact
Stop guessing which person at a company handles VO. This PDF tells you what titles to look for across different industries so your emails land with the right human every time.
Rate Card Template + Pricing Guidance
A professional, customizable rate card you can attach or share when a prospect asks what you charge. You'll also get guidance on how to price yourself properly for different project types — so you're never caught flat-footed, undervaluing your work, or leaving money on the table.
Confidence Hacks + Mindset Boosts
Rejection and silence are part of outreach. You'll get practical tools to handle it without taking it personally — and keep showing up anyway.
45-Day Access (No Stress If Life Gets Busy)
You have 45 days of access to all materials, so if you fall behind during the challenge, you can catch up without losing your progress or your investment.
One clear focus per week.
Each week builds directly on the one before it — so by the time you're sending emails, you've already done the research, the prep, and the strategy work that makes them land.
Build Your Foundation
Set up your tracking system, polish your website and LinkedIn, build your rate card, and research your target companies. This is your launchpad — without it, nothing else works.
Personalization & Strategy
Find the right contacts, learn what makes an email worth opening, write subject lines that work, and understand the difference between a smart follow-up and an annoying one.
Execute Without Overthinking
Send your emails, handle rejection and silence without spiralling, and build the muscle of consistent outreach. Consistency beats perfection every single time.
Build Long-Term Momentum
Set up your follow-ups, plan your next touchpoints, and finish the challenge with a clear picture of where your outreach stands — and what to do when responses start coming in.

Hi, I'm Dervla —
and this is my favourite strategy.
I've been a professional voice actor for over 12 years, with credits including Pepsi, Nike, PayPal, Microsoft, Mercedes-Benz, Samsung, and Facebook. Cold outreach has been one of the most reliable engines in my business the entire time.
My personal outreach strategy consistently delivers a 1-in-5 response rate — not because of a magic script, but because of a real system. And that system is exactly what I'm handing you inside this challenge, day by day.
I'm also the creator of the VO Kickstart Program, The Negotiating Formula (helping voice actors stop leaving money on the table), and the annual Voiceover Speaker Series. I co-founded V.O. North, Canada's voiceover conference, and I've helped hundreds of voice actors build careers that don't depend on luck, agents, or the algorithm.
One payment.
Four weeks of momentum.
A single coaching session on cold outreach strategy could easily run $150–$300. Done-for-you email scripts from a copywriter? Add another $200+. This challenge gives you the strategy, the scripts, the templates, the tracking system, and 20 days of structured guidance — for $49. That's less than most people spend on a dinner out, for a system that can generate VO income for years.
