Your Voice IS Your Business Card&#8212;
Is Anyone Listening?
It&#8217;s a Fact: Today the cell phone is king, and your voice, more often then not, serves as the first&#8212;and often last&#8212;impression you will make on associates and clients. Your voice can either open or close the door to new business opportunities and more money in your bank [...]]]></description>

<h3 style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: larger;"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 128);"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">Your Voice IS Your Business Card&mdash;<br />
Is Anyone Listening?</span></span></span></h3>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><span style="font-size: larger;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">t&rsquo;s a Fact: Today the cell phone is king, and your voice, more often then not, serves as the first&mdash;and often last&mdash;impression you will make on associates and clients. <span style="background-color: Yellow;">Your voice can either open or close the door to new business opportunities and more money in your bank account.</span> Let&rsquo;s face it, to succeed in today&#8217;s competitive market, male or female, you need a good, strong voice that demands attention.</span></span></span></p>
<h3 style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 128);">In Today&#8217;s Competitive Business World<br />
One Voice Size No Longer Fits All.</span></h3>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><span style="font-size: larger;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">As a business professional you will need not just one voice, but a colorful pallet of voices to fit the many clients, peers and situations you have to face every day. Whether you are the next American Idol contestant, embarking on a political career, or simply giving the financial report at a business meeting, everyday you are being judged by the sound of your voice.</span></span></span></p>
<h3 style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 128);"><strong>On a Scale from One to Ten,<br />
Where Do You Rate <u><em>Your</em></u> Voice?</strong></span></h3>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><span style="font-size: larger;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">At sometime in their careers, most speakers, singers, actors or business professionals have had to step in front of their audience minus their voices. They begin their presentation with the same tired, old disclaimer: &quot;Good evening ladies and gentlemen, please excuse my voice but. . . .etc. </span><span style="background-color: Yellow;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">No matter what their excuses may be, the truth is, 90% of all voice problems are caused by bad voice technique, period!</span></span></span></span></p>
<h3 style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: larger;"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 128);"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">Don&rsquo;t Let Your Voice Keep You Out Of The Big Time!</span></span></span>&nbsp;</h3>
<blockquote><p>  <em><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong><span style="font-size: larger;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">Hi, My Name is Joni Wilson. I Am a Voice Coach, Best Selling Author and Professional Speaker and This is MY Story:</span></span></strong></p>
<p></span>  </em></p></blockquote>
<blockquote style="text-align: justify;"><p><em> </em> </p></blockquote>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: larger;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">My voice problems began when I was 21 years old, singing in Las Vegas with the world by the tail. I had just finished as an opening act for Elvis (the real one) and people were coming in to see ME. I had wonderful opportunities coming my way and a secret fear that kept me from taking on any of them. My fear was that;</span></span>&nbsp;</p>
</blockquote>
<blockquote style="text-align: justify;"><p><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"> </span></p></blockquote>
<blockquote><p><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: larger;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;"><u>I COULD NOT TRUST MY VOICE TO<br />
BE THERE WHEN I NEEDED IT.</u></span></span></p>
<p></span></p></blockquote>
<blockquote style="text-align: justify;"><p><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"> </span></p></blockquote>
<blockquote><p>  <span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"></p>
<p><span style="font-size: larger;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">Like most people with voice problems, I just kept pushing my voice by tightening, forcing and strangling it. In my ignorance of the truth, I believed that I could MAKE it perform by pushing it harder and forcing it to be louder. I kept telling myself, &quot;this is my voice. it isn&#8217;t doing what I want it to do, but I&#8217;m stuck with it, period.</span></span></p>
<p></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 128);"><strong><span style="font-size: larger;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">Boy Was I Wrong!</span></span></strong></span></p>
</blockquote>
<blockquote style="text-align: justify;"><p><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"> </span></p></blockquote>
<blockquote><p><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: larger;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">The frustrating part of all that pushing was, my voice would simply say, &quot;enough is enough Joni.&quot; and shut down completely leaving me voice-less. I was the one reaping the wrath of my own vengeance, not my voice. It would simply take a mini-vacation away from me while I was forced to cancel gig after gig opportunity after opportunity because I had no voice. (Those were the days before lip-syn-king.)</span></span></p>

<blockquote><p><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: larger;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">I tried voice method after voice method and nothing worked for me. Like so many singers, entertainers, and business professionals, <span style="background-color: Yellow;">my voice was ruining my budding career!</span> It wasn&rsquo;t until I became a voice teacher myself 18 years ago that I discovered I was not alone in my frustrations.That golden nugget of enlightenment and my desire to solve my own voice problems and those of my students, opened the door to an amazing discovery that helped me find my true voice and has helped thousands of others to find theirs. A powerful voice that would last a life time and one that you can trust to be there when you need it!</span></span></p>

<p><span style="font-size: larger;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">I learned that to be effective my voice must be <span style="background-color: Yellow;">free</span> to express itself.

<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><span style="font-size: larger;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;"><strong><em>I also learned that my voice was more than those two little vocal cords ( folds) in my throat. I discovered that my free, powerful, long lasting voice needed my whole body to work it&#8217;s magic. My students became my Guinea-pigs and my co-creators as together we developed a voice method that was easy, fast and best of all . . . IT WORKED!
