Voiceovers for Walker Furniture in Nevada

by

Doing voice overs for furniture stores is a really enjoyable aspect of my business.  I love furniture.  And I love the owners’ enthusiasm for their product!  This particular set of commercials (this is only one of them), truly demonstrates that love since you get to see the owner discussing his business personally.  I have to say that my recording sessions with these folks are some of the most pleasant (and quick!) sessions of my career.  Gotta love that!  Walker Furniture is the largest furniture store in Nevada – and they’re doing it right.  I’m enthusiastic about helping them get their vision across to their very discerning clientele.

 

You can visit my Video Voice Gallery page to see more of the voice over projects I’ve been honored to lend my voice to.
