How to be a Better Speaker and Hit all the Right Notes: A Conversation with Elaine Clark - Part 2

<p><em>“So I think that when people can get that one word that hits them in the heart and in the gut, that’s what makes a good podcaster. When it’s just information, it’s information. And that’s where we often think, well, ‘I’ll just read the blog.’ You know, ‘I’ll go get a book on that.’ ‘I’ll look it up.’ You know, ‘I’ll just do a Google search and find it.’ But if someone is adding something to it that we haven’t thought about, and it puts a feeling to it and a story, and it makes us come alive, that’s what makes a good podcaster.” -- </em>Elaine Clark</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>This week’s episode is the second half of my conversation with best-selling author, voiceover expert, and prolific voice actor Elaine Clark as we talk about the power of storytelling, what makes someone an expert, and the importance of style in everything from company meetings to ASMR.</p><p>As always, if you have questions for my guest, you’re welcome to reach out through the links in the show notes.&nbsp; If you have questions for me, visit <a href="https://audiobrandingpodcast.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">audiobrandingpodcast.com</a> where you’ll find a lot of ways to get in touch.
