The Secret to Engaging and Converting New Prospects
Some people assume you're in business solely to make more money. For people with a greater purpose this assumption can be frustrating!
Building a business takes lots of time, energy and practice. Critically it also distracts you from doing what you set out to achieve in the first place.
When marketing becomes a chore, you lose sight of your vision. Great marketing turns your vision into reality, it's never a barrier to change.
When you are great at what you do, why is it your prospects do not buy from you?
Therefore, potential customers assume your solution is like all the rest!
You must choose from thousands of marketing approaches.
Choose the few that genuinely help you stand out and get the attention your business deserves. This will drive the results you need to further your business purpose.
Positive results help your prospects turn effortlessly into happy buyers. This is what I help you do, by showing you how to demonstrate value, nurture curiosity and build trust.
Profit is no more the purpose of business than breathing is the purpose of life.

One of the proven ways to amplify your marketing is through the power of storytelling. Successful business owners use the Magic of Stories to market and develop their businesses.

I’ve really enjoyed it today. I’ve always wanted to tell my own story, whether that be in front of a live group or even in a self-help book. And today I’ve just found out so much about my story that I never thought of like there’s a thread that runs through it with different aspects of the story that comes into one and I just never really considered it in that way before. So, it’s been a really interesting and enlightening experience.

Oh, it was brilliant. Thank you Chris. You know, I learnt a lot actually about storytelling. It’s not something that perhaps I … yes I mean every day we tell stories, each and every one of us, we do tell stories but putting it in such a way to actually link your business, to link your, you know, one of your clients, in this case it was Sam, one of my virtual storeholders, it’s quite a skill and, you know, the feedback I got was very very useful in terms of the structure as well, I know it is something that I can work on, within the story there are actually quite a number of different stories that I can use for different audiences and yeah, you know, in terms of like delivering the story as well, you know, I felt that it was quite a difficult thing to perhaps you know bring out, although it is quite an emotional story where my storeholder Sam had everything destroyed, all her products destroyed in a storm and then I was kind of like her fairy godmother if you like. I was able to help her, to throw her a lifeline with my World Vegan Market but I think that, you know, I can perhaps structure it in a way where it can be even more powerful, so I want thank Chris Sissons for his really great feedback on that. So, thank you very much.
Business Storytelling: an Unfair Advantage?
We're all storytellers and every business owner tells many stories. We're so used to storytelling that we become slapdash or don't even notice when we're telling a story.
Stories are told in spoken or written words for an audience. Notes you make from your life experience are not a story - they're your raw material. Business storytellers, the ones who really want to make a difference, develop their skills in these three disciplines:

If you know exactly where you're headed ... it's no fun at all!
Find Stories
How do you find the raw material for your stories? Explore past and contempary stories plus ideas from history, science, data, fairy stories ...
Tell Stories
This is where you take your raw material and craft it into compelling and transforming stories. Stories that capture attention and hold it while you explain about your business.
Share Stories
The media you use to communicate your stories make a difference. A move from spoken to written words (or vice versa), for example, makes a huge difference. This is where you design your story-based marketing strategy.
