So, let's see. Your company has been slammed repeatedly on Yelp, your customer service people treat customers like dirt, and you're near bankruptcy. And you ask me if I can save your butt with $300 dollars for a professional voice over and a "radio campaign". Ah, no. But thanks for asking.

Interesting seasonal VO challenge: do a "credible" Santa's voice. No, not that one.

Challenge of the day: this native Bostonian doing the voice of a 78 year old man from the Deep South.

If you speak in your business, you'll want to read this. https://www.quinncreative.com/the-pain-of-verbed-nouns/

The English language changes constantly. Verbs are turned to nouns, nouns to verbs. A light-hearted look at the word, "gift" as a verb.

Your "branding campaign" starts the moment a potential client calls.

You're a very busy sole proprietor. You've invested thousands in training, software, state-of-the-art this and cutting-edge that. In your mind, you're the best in the business. So, what about your telephone voice message?

The right voice creates an immediate image of the speaker, and company, expanding your caller's expectations, building interest and calming those "first time jitters" when dealing with someone new.

For the first ten folks who contact me, I make this offer: I will record your business telephone message up to 100 words for $100. For more information, drop me a line.

"Nobody told me..."
Like many condo communities, ours traditionally throws a big 4th of July party for residents and guests. Hot grill, cold beer, 100 people, big pool...perfect. The next day, word gets around the building about how much fun people had. Simple "how'd you like the party?" questions between floors in the elevator were met with some blank faces. "When we were told of this?", "Nobody said anything to me", "First I'm hearing of it"...you get the idea.

All the residents ride the elevators at least twice a day, almost forced to read postings of events. They receive emails from the staff about upcoming events, hell, they have flyers and invitations pushed under their doors to keep them up to speed. So, what gives?

You're using the wrong sense. Despite the round-the-clock communications effort, nothing stuck. The printed message stayed on the page. Next time, consider adding a voice to your messaging. It will be remembered.

Now, how can I help you?

"You Never Close Your Eyes..."

If you're an American woman of a certain age, you most likely hummed that headline rather than read it. Why? Bill Medley's powerful, intoxicating voice is as alive in your mind today as it was when you first heard it in 1964. His voice made a powerful, memorable impact that nothing in print could ever make.

A voice artist will help you cut through the clutter of the marketplace, to be heard and remembered. That's what we do. Now, how may I help you? www.kentmcdonaldvoiceovers.com

Fifteen years of radio production honed my skills as a voice artist. Today, I work on commercials, promotions, IVR/voicemail messages, audiobooks, videogames, documentaries, real estate home tours and more.
