Alix Perry: The one with the Big Boy Pallets!

In ep 117 of “How Do You Say That?!” sponsored by britishvoiceover.co.uk, Alix Perry joins Sam and Mark to talk about a script that half the population would never get to read! We make industrial pallets sound out of this world and reveal a guaranteed way to make your audience think about the product or service you're talking about!

Our VO question this week is all about how to make your website pop with your unique personality!

Script 1

Did you know, statistically speaking, around 20% of any workforce is experiencing some stage of menopause. And 80% of those employees will be suffering from symptoms like sleep problems, mood changes, and difficulty concentrating - oh and a whole host of other less talked about stuff.

80% of menopausal women say their organisation has no basic structure in place - but expert menopause support is essential if you want to maintain a happy, successful company.

That’s where we come in…

Script 2

We don’t want you to think about pallets.

You've got other things on your mind.

Like your business. Your products.

We just make sure they go from A to B to C…and back to A.

Efficient, hassle-free and in the most sustainable way.

We are that almost invisible foundation.

Combining future proof logistics and state of the art technology

With a strong natural material.

That's our nature.

We don’t want you to think about pallets. But when you do...let them be red.
