About this listen
Tone can be an elusive ingredient in any communication.
Misused or misplaced, it can destroy any sense of connection.
Tone is everywhere. It is the snapshot and snap judgment of a song, a look, or a feel.
It is also a snap shot of our voice.
In one tenth of a second, our speaking can make an impression. That's a very small window. This window sets the tone.
We’re going to explore how to use it.
Whether you want to close more sales, build deeper relationships, or just relax, this collection of anecdotes, techniques, and tips from Marshall Davis Jones will teach you:
- How intent affects our voice.
- How our voice affects our mental state and the state of your listener.
- How to listen to respond vs listening to react.
And more!
With Tonal Influence™, you will find a path to self-mastery through control of the world's most powerful instrument—your voice.

Dan Sullivan, the world's leading coach for highly successful entrepreneurs, wants you to know that achieving 10X growth is exponentially easier than striving for 2X growth. Most find this idea confusing at first because simply imagining 10X growth causes them to think they need to do 10X more work to achieve it. However, being a 10X entrepreneur is nothing like what most people think.

The ancient Toltecs believed that life, as we perceive it, is a dream. We each live in our own personal dream, and these come together to form the dream of the planet, or the world in which we live. Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.

If there's one lesson Oren Klaff has learned over decades of pitching, presenting, and closing long-shot, high-stakes deals, it's that people are sick of being marketed and sold to. Most of all, they hate being told what to think. The more you push them, the more they resist. What people love, however, is coming up with a great idea on their own, even if it's the idea you were guiding them to have all along. Often, the only way to get someone to sign is to make them feel like they're smarter than you.

Tonal Influence guides you on how setting the tone can help you communicate and understand others better.
AI robots may be fast but human nature is fast naturally at setting the tone faster 1/10 of a sec. That’s one lesson Marshall Davis Jones teaches at the start of the book.
Each page has a different framework or technique to try In order to improve communication to understand and be understood better.
I learned how at 18 months infants understand tone, anatomy lessons on how the head, neck and shoulders can influence how the voice comes out to how your tonal influence in things I never thought or connected how tone is shaken by things like feeling disgust, smelling & nostrils movement, yawning, ums & filter words, insults, feeling awe, breathing, and even to not to talk while getting your blood pressure check.
The pages give lifelong lessons to be mindful how you are setting the tone in day to day personal and professional encounters.
In short, setting the tone is social magic glue but underestimate the importance of how you are saying things can led to bar wire encounters that close rather than open worlds.
Marshall Davis Jones guides you on how to open universes of tonal influence daily. Great job setting the tone on why we need to be mindful of tonal influence.
