How a New Delhi Voice Actor Built a $100K Voice-Over Marketplace

Who built it, and what they built

sandeep salwann is a professional voice actor based in New Delhi, India, where he runs his own recording studio. He has worked in the voice-over field since 2005 and registered his company, voice-over mehak, in 2015.

VoiceOverMehak.com operates as a voice-over marketplace connecting buyers with voice talent across nearly all major spoken languages. The company says it is approaching $100,000 in sales for the year and continues to refine the platform for both talent and clients.

Where the idea came from

Sandeep studied medical science in school, influenced by his father, a pharmacist, but he had loved impersonation, acting, and mimicking people's mannerisms since childhood. He began experimenting with his vocal tone around age ten.

The marketplace idea grew out of freelance work. Clients who hired him for projects in his mother tongue often needed other voices, so he introduced them to fellow voice talents. That pattern made him realize he could operate as a casting director on a global scale.

While holding a job at a national television channel, he planned the business after hours, sketching out the website, recruiting voice actors, writing content, and studying how voice-over marketplaces worked.
