Small businesses are the backbone of America. Most companies start small and with determination and inspiration . . . and some help in the area of finances…they grow and prosper. VocalBoothToGo, a small company located in Frederick, MD, hopes this will become their story.

VocalBoothToGo creates products that frees voice actors and musicians to work and create anytime and anywhere without disturbing neighbors. They focus on soundproofing and acoustic room treatment products but have started to get a demand for other products for voice actors, musicians and audio engineers.

”Responding to our customers’ demand, we created acoustic blankets that worked so well we got lots of referrals. Then we noticed a need for affordable soundproofing materials for actors and musicians who wanted to work and practice at home, without bothering neighbors,” said Adil Aliev, the president of VocalBoothToGo.

The grant money will allow this small company to improve on products they currently have such as soundproofing materials for windows and doors. Unlike other types of sound booths, VocalBoothToGo’s booths can be shipped easily. ”Our booths can be shipped by FEDEX anywhere,” add Aliev.

The company is working on residential soundproofing products since this is a demand they receive often from customers. Traffic noise as well as neighbor noise is a common problem for many. Customer like the portability of the products.

”Our latest project is residential soundproofing products that can be easily installed without big construction. The first prototype was met very well, and now we have people asking for it, but no product available,” said Aliev.

The grant money will go straight into production of soundproofing curtains and wall covering and will also help the company start production. ”We can make the products available to people sooner,” add Aliev.

Small businesses like VocalBoothToGo work on a small budget and grants such as the one being offered by Fedex will help them reach their potential.
