4 Tips to Improve Your Voice with Vocalics

Voice Marketing with Emily Binder

Only 7% of all communication is done through verbal communication, the words we speak. Tone of voice plays a much greater role. Hear four tips to use vocalics to make your voice more visceral, effective, and to command attention. Learn when to use volume on focus words, when to pause and how to use melody to convey grammatical meaning. About melody: let's stop with upspeak, that pesky habit that makes a statement sound like a question by ending that sentence on a higher note. Upspeak diminishes your authority.
