Let Your Voice Be Heard

Sometimes it’s nice for your clients/customers to hear from you other than written words in an email, Facebook, Twitter, blogging and all the other platforms you use to get your message out there.

How about another method called your voice? It’s time to let your voice be heard.

I say this because I am guilty of staying with the written form of conveying my message and realized I need to do more using other forms of communication as well. This year I vow to start utilizing lots of platforms to let my voice be heard. As a matter of fact, I already did an expert interview using a Teleseminar platform.

With so many options today, you can use social media platforms, mobile phones, Youtube and many other sources, you have many ways to let your audience hear your voice.

Below I have listed some ideas for you if you are interested in getting your message heard through voice.

Youtube - Using video marketing is so powerful. Youtube is just one video platform. There are so many others as well and I will be including them in my new ebook that is coming out soon.

Teleseminars - These are very powerful platforms to use. For those who are on a small budget and are just starting out, I highly recommend this free site called Free Conferencing.

Cinch - This is a powerful tool that allows you to record and share your voice on audio and place it in your social media sites.

Blog Talk Radio - Want to have your own radio show? This is a great way to get started.

Skype - I love Skype and use it to communicate with clients, friends, family as it allows me to connect via video conferencing, sharing screens and many other options as well. It’s a great way to connect internationally as well.

Other forms of verbal communication include:

Use Your computer webcam – Most new computers have a built in webcam. If you computer is an older model, you can purchase a webcam at a very reasonable rate.

Use Your Mobile phone – Many mobile phones include video options where you can record yourself and send it directly to Youtube or your email to edit it.

These are just a few options to use for getting your voice heard. I don’t want to overwhelm you with so many options at this time.

What are some other forms what you use? Please let the readers know by leaving a comment below.

Until next time, have a great day,

Cindy

Also Google + hangout, though they sound informal, they do have potential to chat and be heard!

Still getting the hang of hangouts. I use audacity for recording. Simple and easy. Technology makes a difference but you still need to TALK to people. Like you I love Skype

Hi Cindy,
I’ve used all the tools except Cinch; will look into that one. Have I published with all the tools — no. Yet I have a channel on YouTube (more videos coming soon), hosted my own teleseminar, been interviewed for a podcast, and have feelers out to be on web radio. Skype is used for clients and fellow coaches. So, I’m getting there!

Great post, Cindy! This is a very interesting post that has a lot of different ideas out there. I didn’t know you could get your own talk radio show online! I’ve been thinking about some sort of internet radio show talking about political issues and the news, so this might be something I could look into. Thanks for planting the seed!

Our voice is what attracks others. They can tell when you are serious, happy, silly, professional and so much more. I agree with you Cindy, use your voice to get your message out and to really communicate with your audience and clients.

I have been recently looking at a software for Video Emails. I sent a test Video Email to a couple of my clients and they absolutely loved it. So will be doing more of that!

There are so many opportunities to reach out to others….it is hard to keep track of all of them. Thank you for introducing me to some new resources. I will check them out.

I agree with you Janette, that is is very hard to keep up. That’s why I am focusing on results this year as I take one area of expertise at a time and try to master it. It is my goal to offer solutions and resources and then my readers can find an area they like for them to master.

Let me know which resources you use and let me know how you like them ok?

Great idea Lynn, to use video emails. I also include that using a software called http://www.techsmith.com/jing.html. It’s a screenshare that allows a lot of fun options.

Keep me posted on your new video emails too. Thanks for sharing that.

Hi Steve,

Thanks for stopping by. It’s amazing how many options we have to market our message out there. Great that you want to start your own radio show. Please let me know if you do, I would love to stop by and listen.

Also, if you use any of the other tools, please let me know what you think.

Good luck with your new venture.

Hi PeggyLee,

Sounds like you are way ahead of the game. Which tool do you like the best? I love Skype and Jing, which I forgot to include in my list.

Yes, you are getting there. Congratulations!

I like Audacity too Roberta. Yes, talking is essential and I like how many ways we can share out message.

Thanks for commenting,

I know I have been reluctant in the past to do video blogs or use my voice, as I tend to hide behind the written word. But this year I need to put myself out there more, and this post will help a lot in finding / using different means : )

Hi Janine,

You are not alone in feeling this way. Many people hide behind their words and their computer screens, I did for awhile too. But I realized that getting my voice out there, started to build more trust. It also helped me gain confidence too.

Good luck with your “getting out there more” I look forward to hearing what you have to say.
