Transform Your Purpose
into a Story that
Captivates and Converts
Hey you!
People are looking for the amazing gifts you offer, but you keep getting overlooked.
You used to get a lot of leads through your DMs or posts, but your engagement has plummeted. It feels like everyone ghosted you.
You address all the features and benefits in your Elevator Pitch, but your audience disengages the moment you start saying, “I help you…”
Just because a sales funnel worked for one business, doesn’t mean it is the wireframe for your business.
If I had to guess, I would say in the past two years, you’ve had more Zoom interactions than face-to-face meetings and more DMs than phone calls. Am I right?
Not only are you struggling to adapt to a world that is more online and reclusive than ever before, but you just can’t keep up with the sheer amount of content and competition coming out every. Single. Day.
Your skills have surpassed those around you, and the service your business offers the world is the best in the market.
But the hard truth is – if you cannot capture people’s attention then no one will have the opportunity to buy from you, hire you, or believe in you.
The one thing – currently missing from your business – that can take you from stuck to stellar is this:
More time spent creating, or more money spent on ads is not the answer. If you want your business to launch off the plateau it’s currently sitting on (or just off the ground) then you have to stop telling people what you do and learn to show them using stories.
I know how critical storytelling is to a business because for the past 30 years I have been studying, researching, teaching and training on the power of storytelling.
My work has been featured in the Harvard Business Review, Inc.com, Entrepreneur.com and I am the former Chief Storytelling Officer of Success Magazine. My book Stories that Stick: How to Captivate Customers, Influence Audiences and Transform Business debuted at #2 on the Wall Street Journal Bestseller List, has been translated into 13 languages, and has sold over 100,000 copies in the US.
Forbes said it might be the most important business book you read.
I spend much of my time traveling the US and abroad speaking to audiences as large as 20,000 people, across all industries, about the power of strategic storytelling in business and nothing brings me MORE joy than hearing of someone’s story-success after applying the Stories That Stick framework to their business.
I’ve worked with brands like:
I’ve seen how successful strategic storytelling is in my own company.
I’ve also seen amazing businesses get their story wrong, and I’ve watched how it nearly pulled their dreams right out from under them.
That’s why I want to help you. I designed the Stories That Stick Mastery program to teach you my strategic storytelling framework, give you a fool-proof process to follow and show you step-by-step how to craft the most authentic (and persuasive) stories in your business.
The Stories That Stick
Mastery Program
THE ONLINE PROGRAM THAT TEACHES YOU HOW TO CAPTIVATE CUSTOMERS, INFLUENCE AUDIENCES AND TRANSFORM YOUR BUSINESS FROM STUCK TO STELLAR, FAST.

There is nothing worse than having all these amazing ideas about how you can help someone, but you can’t find the words to share with them. Never be left without the words to share again – after the training, you’ll have an arsenal of stories to call upon at a moment’s notice. - Stop with the pushy-sales tactics that don’t feel genuine
