Quotables

“Your voice…is the most authentic connection that you have with your audience, but it's not just about you. It's about your ideas and how you translate those to the audience in a powerful way.”—RM

“If you're blending in, no one can see you, right? It's like having camouflage on.”—JS

“There are things you're for and there are things you're against, and that's all part of your point of view and how that gets reflected and integrated into your voice.”—RM

“Look at Gary V versus Seth Godin. They're both saying very similar things…but could they be more different?.”—JS

“A lot of it comes down to your point of view…it's not about you. It's about your audience. It's about how what you do transforms your ideal audience.”—RM

“So you'll have this idea, you’ll see this problem…but no one cares yet because you haven't found a way to communicate it with people in a way that lights them up.”—JS

“We're talking about voice, but it's more than just the physical voice. It's how are you going to translate that into formats that your audience can hear and emotionally respond to?”—RM

“The potential reason for the disconnect (when your audience isn’t responding to you) could be that you're screaming into the wrong microphone.”—JS
