"The hardest-working voiceover I know!"

Gary Terzza
Channel 4 Television


"voice4hire [John Harley's production company] have provided numerous commercials for 93.5 UnityFM, and their speed of service is amazing - sometimes within a couple of hours of the script being sent! The ads are always highly polished and John's reads are great. We are always certain we will end up with a delighted client."

Ibrar Khan
Station Manager
93.5 UnityFM, Birmingham


"John was amazing to work with. He communicated his schedule up front, and was able to provide the final voice work in a flash. Even though we were across the pond, John took our direction through e-mail and returned each take just as directed. We couldn't be happier with the final result - so there's no doubt we'll be returning to John again soon."
Jason Klein, Plan B Branding (Television documentary)

"I am impressed, i like that you done your research on the company before auditioning. I like the background music and the advertising. All of your recordings were spot-on."
Glenn Haddrell, RG Hosting (On Hold Messaging)

This is great, John. How do I pay you?
