The Insanely Simple Technique to Build Relationship with Your Audience is…

to share your story and connect with them emotionally.

According to Jeff Goins:

Story is where we came from. Story is where we’re going. Story is what connects us and binds us to each other.

It is in the story of God and mankind — amongst love and fear and failure — that we make meaning of our lives.

Story is what defines us and sets us apart. It’s what allows us to connect with each another — to truly know andbe known.

Story is powerful.

Yes, it’s that powerful. It’s the best marketing in the latest years.

Big brands are willing to pay thousands of dollars for story tellers just to craft the story right, because they know it works. It’s what makes big brands memorable in our minds.
