Episode #37 Voice Barriers and How They Are Your Hurting Your Sales and Your Business
Welcome to the show!
Today I’m talking about voice barriers. I’m not sure if you’ve ever heard of them but they are really getting in the way of your business, your sales, your success!
Voice barriers are the invisible barriers that go between you and your customer or audience or students. Barriers are created through the tone of the voice, the quality of the voice, the variety or lack thereof and so much more. We hear the frustration, the anger, the desperation if it’s laid into the voice.
Voice barriers have to go because they can be exactly what is costing you sales. I’m always fascinated when I work with people and when I ask them to do a sales pitch everything in their voice changes, EVERYTHING.
Don’t let voice barriers get in the way of your success, learn how to get rid of them!
