Testimonials
Vale Inco (Global leading producer of nickel, copper, cobalt and precious metals)
To whom it may concern,
For the past 6 months we have had the pleasure of engaging Derek Aubrey to provide voice-over talent for a diverse variety of Computer Based Training modules and interactive voice response phone message scripts.
We happened upon his convenient on-line service while in search of an alternative to a local supplier who had been letting us down recently with both the reliability and quality of their service.
Derek by contrast has quickly become a vital member of our extended network of support personnel, by providing prompt, reliable and high quality narration services, which in turn helps us to meet our customer needs with consistency, accuracy and expediency.
We look forward to continuing our relationship with Derek and would not hesitate to recommend his services to anyone who is looking for similar results.
Sincerely,
John Regimbal

Derek Aubrey has such a talent. I find him to be friendly, upbeat, professional voice for most any type of application. His voice style is clear, warm, positive and powerful and has been a great value to our station.
Thanks.

Random Quotes From Happy Clients:
Broadcasting Client - "I just wanted to give you my feedback on the great radio commercials you wrote and produced. Our philosophy here is how important the message is; if you don’t have a strong message, your campaign just won’t succeed. Obviously some folks get it and some miss it completely !! Your spots were great radio commercials. The listener could relate to that feeling of being behind the wheel and picture themselves in the car. Very Cool!"
Marketing Company - "You were the brains behind this concept and YOU are the voice in both the spots. VERY well done Derek. I’m so glad you are on our team!!!"
Marketing Company - "Oh my!!! This is far beyond what I had asked for. You are simply amazing Derek."

Animation / Film Company - Wow, I'm really impressed - both by your fast delivery and the quality of the voices. (Character 1) and (character 2) - brilliant! With those two, I think we've found our 'sound'. Great! (Character 3) - I really like the small twists and turns you've put into his voice - the aahhh's and sometimes the vibrant sound, the angry tone here and there. Great stuff!
