What makes Billy Mays so successful at selling Oxi Clean, Kaboom, etc. Is it is loud voice or his speaking style or ??? I do know that when I hear his voice it really makes me pay attention. What do you guys think?

I dont know but I noticed the other day that he has a commercial for insurance or something. I think it may be his voice that makes him suck a good salesman. I get tempted to buy the things he's selling!

Yep, he is pushing all kinds of things nowadays. His voice is very noticeable that's for sure!

Definitely his loud voice and persuasive manner does make one want to pay attention. But some people think he is too loud. I don't really mind one way or the other. I like infomerrcials, cause they are just plain fun to watch!

That is true, they are fun. I was laughing because the other day he was on tv again and my son said "Why is he so loud mom? You should have him wake me up in the morning. Wake up kid, time to get up!!!" I was busting out!
