Storytelling for Small Business: Creating and Growing an Authentic Business Through the Power of Story

Do you have a small business or private practice that means more to you than just paying the bills? Have you been looking for an effective way to market yourself in our noisy digital world, one that is also human, thoughtful, and authentic?

Giant brands utilize the power of story constantly to attract customers and build loyalty, from Apple to Budweiser to virtually anything you see during the Super Bowl. They know a story can sink their message deeply into the minds and hearts of the people they most want to reach.

But did you know storytelling can be equally powerful for YOUR small business?

If you're a solopreneur, purpose-driven business, compassionate entrepreneur, or are just hoping to offer your skills & gifts to make something in the world a little better, your story can help you stand out, create genuine connection, and grow your business.
