BUILDING YOUR PERSONAL BRAND

ONE STORY AT A TIME

WHAT’S STORYTELLING? WHY IS IT

BEGINNING TO ATTRACT LOTS OF ATTENTION?

WHAT’S THE ROLE OF STORYTELLING IN

BUILDING A PERSONAL BRAND?

HOW DID STORYTELLING CHANGE NOW

COMPARED TO 5 YEARS AGO?

HOW CAN WE USE STORYTELLING TELLING TO

STAND OUT? ANY TIPS?

HOW DO WE KNOW WHAT STORIES TO TELL

AND CONNECT WITH OUR AUDIENCE?

Storytelling is something we do everyday, in almost every situation. No reason to overthink it because it comes naturally

Storytelling is ancient art form of communication that allows us to explain a series of events trough naration.

Storytelling is everything in the creation of my personal brand. Our stories make us unique, make us who we are.

It’s tough to build brand loyalty or make people fall in love with your brand unless you’re sharing your story.

We stand out when we’re personal, when we allow ourselves to be vulnerable – in a purposeful way.

It’s important to take the audience into account first – what will draw them out? What will they relate to? Then plan.

Tell powerfully transformational stories about life-changing enlightenment & how the burning #fire was lit!

Be memorable,whether it is how u relate, visual u add, or personality make sure it will resonate w/ audience u r tryin 2 reach.

Story must be compelling so that others can relate to it. Be authentic with your stories.

It’s less brand focused now. It’s evolved to consumer-centric, the people BEHIND the brands are who we want stories about.

Social media has allowed people to tell stories at SCALE.

Stories can set the tone within our business and professional relationships, turning a warm lead into a client for life.

Storytelling creates an emotional connection with Your audience, by creating a visual landscape, out of Your content.

Storytelling shows people that U R REAL. People like REAL. It makes a connection faster & strengthens one’s personal brand.

Know who your audience is and listen listen and again listen.

Everyone has a story, but few breathe that into their branding while keeping it authentic.
