"There is meaning and emotion in hearing a
voice that is missing from reading words on a
page.”
LifeOnRecord is one of the most meaningful gifts you
can get for your child on the celebration of their Bar or
Bat Mitzvah.
With a simple, toll-free phone call, friends and
family are able to express their well wishes,
congratulations, encouragement, and advice for adult
life. LifeOnRecord collects the recordings and creates a
unique audio keepsake which becomes more meaningful with
the passage of time.
How it Works
Friends and family call a toll-free number and hear a
personal greeting from you inviting them to leave a
favorite story, memory, or wish. The caller leaves a
meaningful message and has the option to review what they
recorded and re-record it if necessary.
You as the coordinator have complete control - and
you'll have as much fun as the recipient!
As each recording comes in, it's available on our
website within seconds. You'll be able to play the
recordings online and through iTunes, and you'll have
control over what recordings make it to the final CD and
in what order.
You can either download the recordings to your
computer for free and make your own CD, or we'll send you
one.
It's that simple!
A surprisingly affordable price, for a
priceless gift!
Despite the current economy, we want you to have the opportunity to be able to give this gift to someone special, so we have temporarily reduced the basic price from $89.99 to $49.99.
The LifeOnRecord service itself
costs $89.99
$49.99. For that price you receive a
toll-free number for family and friends to leave messages
for the event, the ability to play and monitor the
recordings online, and the ability to make CDs using
iTunes. For the $49.99 fixed price:
- As many people can call in as you want, and each
person can record a message that is up to 30 minutes in
length. Callers can even leave multiple messages! There
are no limits on the number of calls you receive.
- The toll-free number is active within a few minutes after you sign-up, and expires after one year. You can download your recordings, and make or request CDs at any point in time. Everything is under your control.
- You will be able to monitor and play the recordings
on our web site, and download individual recordings.
With the included iTunes integration, you can easily
make entire CDs, with the "tracks" you desire, in the
sequence you want.
Give a Truly Meaningful Mitzvah Gift!
You can make your own CDs, or
we can create them for you.
Although you can download your recordings
for free into iTunes (which itself is a free download for
PCs and Macs) and burn your own CDs, we can also create a
personalized keepsake CD set packaged in a distinctive
metal case for an additional $24.99. The
CD is personalized with printed messages of your
choosing, and you pay the same $24.99 price even if it
takes multiple CDs to fit all your recordings!
So, if you buy the CD set, the total
price comes to $114.98 $74.98
plus shipping. (Shipping is about $6.50 for USPS Priority
Mail shipping with Delivery Confirmation).
Quick
Turnaround
You'll receive an email with your account
information and instructions the same day that you
sign-up for the service. When you are ready to have us
create your CDs, just let us know and we'll compile the
recordings, personalize the CDs with a printed message on
the front, and ship them out the next day.
People have been able to sign up for the
service, have everyone call in the next day, and then
present the CDs to a loved one the day after that. If you
create the CDs yourself, the turnaround time can be even
quicker.
"A meaningful,
highly-personal gift that's simple and easy to
create"
Although people change, memories fade,
and stories tend to get lost, you'll be giving a gift
that captures and preserves feelings and stories.
LifeOnRecord collects everyone's personal
recordings and creates a keepsake which becomes even more
meaningful with the passage of time.
"Voices convey
personality”
Has there ever been an answering machine
message or voicemail that you've wanted to save?
The words that were said are only part of
what makes those messages special.
What really makes people sentimental for
those recordings is that voices convey personality, which
makes the message more meaningful than the same words
written in a card.

With friends and family spread-out throughout
the United States, your service was able to bring
everyone together for my parent's 40th anniversary.
The gift brought tears to my parent's eyes and it
was the perfect way for people to talk about the
impact my parents have made. Your service is
something I'll be recommending to all my
friends.
Amanda Johnson, Portland,
Oregon
We all called in and made this a surprise gift
for my father's 65th birthday. The CD was nicely
packaged in the silver case, and made an impact
even before anyone listened to it.
We all listened to the CD together with my father,
and it was absolutely wonderful. I learned a lot
about my father that I didn't know. My father isn't
an emotional man, but I was sitting across from him
when we listened to it, and he was clearly moved.
This was a great way to celebrate his life so
far.
Sarah Kennedy, Columbus,
Ohio
Thank you so much for the special CD from my
class. I love it! It is such a special and unique
gift. I’ve listened to it a number of times
and all the other teachers are jealous.
Again, thank you!!!
Monica Shuman, Milwaukee,
Wisconsin
I was blown away by how fast my emails were
answered, and the level of customer service. The
LifeOnRecord experience was first class all the
way!
Robert Jaremus, Jacksonville,
Florida
The CD we received after our child was born is
something we will treasure forever. To hear the
voices of people we haven't seen since our wedding
blessing us and our new child was wonderful, and is
also something we cannot wait to share with our
daughter when she gets older. Thank you!!
Anne O'Sullivan, Virginia Beach,
Virginia
LifeOnRecord was the perfect way to send all of
our loving thoughts to my nephew who is serving in
Iraq. The voices from home were exactly what he
needs to hear!
Thayna Regas, El Paso, Texas
Our LifeOnRecord number provided a truly unique
way to include Zengeler Cleaner's 18,000 household
customer base in our 150th anniversary celebration.
Callers have left a wonderful variety of special
messages that range from nostalgic to humorous and
everything in between. LifeOnRecord makes it simple
for our customers to call and capture some of the
precious memories we have in common.

Excerpt from Hearing
is
Believing, Chicago
Sun-Times News Group
As Rick Kerman and his son, Josh, drove home
from Wisconsin last weekend, the disc in the car's
CD player wasn't playing the latest sounds of one
particular group. Instead, their 13-year-old son
listened to a variety of voices, some he knew, some
he didn't, talk about him, his parents, his family
or just about life, in general. One particular
anecdote caught his attention. His late uncle's
manager shared some thoughts, stories and heartfelt
emotions about his uncle Andy, who died in 1984
before Josh even got to know him.
"It was a whole different perspective of
information that Josh didn't know about my brother,
and that I didn't even know," said Northbrook
resident Carol Kerman, Josh's mother. Kerman's
brother was Andy Kaufman, the "Saturday Night Live"
icon probably best known for his role as Latka
Gravas on the TV series, "Taxi."...
..."The stories were poignant, and gave people a
chance to reflect," Kerman said of the keepsake CD,
which was a gift for Josh's Bar Mitzvah. "In this
age, we don't have the time or make the time to do
much reflecting."
