Restructure, revamp, and revolutionize your storytelling strategy, put every prospect on the hero’s path, and create a story that sells more, with our 3-hour Storytelling workshop.
About this Storytelling workshop.
The story behind your product matters. Fact. But building and articulating a story that resonates with customers and puts them on the path to buying is an incredibly careful and strategic process.
This is where our workshop comes in. Throughout 3x 1-hour sessions, we’ll be diving deep into the three key attributes that form the basis of any successful story (logic, emotion, and credibility) and actionably working through how you can apply each to your product(s).
With a blend of group activities, plenty of Q&As, and storyboarding ideas and solutions live on screen, this workshop’s the definition of interactive and all-action.
How will it work?
Each session will be divided between teaching, group discussions, and interactive activities. You’ll be invited to bring a potential story to the workshop that you’d like to be created which would then be slowly built through open collaboration over the three unique sessions through immediate feedback from your peers and instructor.
Here, you’ll start from (potentially) limited knowledge and end up with a fully personalized canvas and strategy that you can start implementing with your team the very next day.
“One of the best courses I have taken! Complete and actionable, I am left with tons of insights and frameworks to use immediately!”
