About Alistair Davis
I love teaching people about the power of the voice and performing on a webcam or stage. As virtual business leaders, we can better connect with our clients, prospects, or colleagues - no matter if you are presenting, persuading, or negotiating.

Your voice and body are connection tools - use these better than the next person and you will be more successful.

I break down the speaking voice and performance into measurable components and teach people how to enhance each aspect.

What makes me different is I use simple voice acting and acting techniques that anyone can learn.

Currently, I am also a professional Voice Actor (www.alistairdavis.co.za) and Actor over the past 10 years I have voiced over 2000 commercial, Radio, and Television Voice Overs for local and international brands.

My sales journey started at age 7, knocking on doors selling a very difficult product. From a young age I heard the sound of slamming doors and the art of persistence, I learned how to really open a conversation with warmth and get people liking me from the start.

At age 20, I started working for Oracle in inside sales in Dublin, Ireland; I was in the Oracle Economy for 10 years. These 10 years honed my sales skills even more whilst working for a Fortune 500 company and smaller Oracle Partners.

Not content with the corporate life, I decided that I needed to become an Entrepreneur and so I moved back to South Africa to try my hand at running my own business. I taught my salespeople to hunt for business and we sourced 90% of our revenue from cold calling.

My mission is to make people interesting and interested in what you have to say. I unpack the voice in measurable components and combine the theory with technology so that the learning sticks and people walk away with a life skill.

Speaking powerfully from the heart is a skill that can be learned.
