The benefit this book has is it's abaility to show you ways to improve the sound of your voice with various vocal exercises that help strengthen or improve how you sound.

After that the second part of the book has tips on telephone techniques and such that are more tips she's come across and many of these I've found are not as strong as other methods I've come across.
