Have you ever watched a TV interview of your favorite athlete just to hear them butcher the pronunciation of a word so bad that it makes you cringe? I ran across this past article by Justin Brown and wanted to share with you 10 commonly mispronounced English words that can make you look dumb! Do you have any that you hear often to add to this list?
A little fodder for conversation with family and friends around the Thanksgiving table!
Enjoy!

Hello everyone, I would like to share an article written by Jill Tarnoff that was posted on the voices.com website concerning the use of a professional voice for your business voice mail and IVR systems. Quite frankly there are many businesses that could benefit from this and, with all the different stops in different communities where I work events this could prove to be a tremendous opportunity to have these types of recordings completed. I often travel with my portable recording gear capable of broadcast quality recordings while I am on the road! The important thing to remember is that this valuable resource is available at a very reasonable cost for your business.
Voice talent and speech coach Jill Tarnoff shares her experiences calling in to book appointments with a healthcare provider and how the voice on an automated telephone system recording sets tone for the remainder of a call and speaking with a real person.
Here is the link to the complete blog article http://blogs.voices.com/voxdaily/2011/06/voices_for_business_voicemails.html
Have you ever thought of having a professional voice record your phone prompts?

I just had to share this article by Brian Clark with you today, it is so easy to make these mistakes! One must always be reviewing correct grammar, especially with technology and auto-correct trying to figure it out for you. How many times have you let one of these slip by in a post you have made on a social network or a text message?
