"Don't tell him this, but I owe Kurt Kelly a lot. Since he has been promoting my Voice Over Work Out Group [VOWOG] in his newsletter, I have had a steady stream of skilled, regular attendees coming through my doors. Of all the advertising I have done for my small business, Kurt Kelly's newsletter is  at the top of the list. It continues to be the most productive, consistent, best promotion I have utilized in the VO community. I make it a point to update Kurt each time I start a new session, because I know I'll get new faces in the room. In short, Kurt Kelly drives business."
