From the Book
Every step in this tool comes from Personal Branding: A Manifesto on Fame and Influence, Second Edition, by Isaac Mashman. The book goes further. Read about it.
- 4.13Audio branding is a sound people associate with you: a jingle, a tune, a voice. If you host a podcast or film videos, think about how you sound, and use the same intro and outro so people come to expect it.
- 4.13Decide how your brand should sound: dark and melancholy, cheerful and hopeful, or a genre of its own. For speakers, the voice is the power.
- 4.13Record a five-minute voice memo about something you love and listen back. Count the filler words, and listen for whether your voice changes with the emotion.
Questions
What is audio branding?
A sound people associate with you: an intro and outro, a sign-off, a tune, and your own voice. Used the same way every time, it becomes as recognizable as a logo.
Is my voice recording uploaded?
