Storytelling and the brain (2)Use stories to connect with your ideal clients; they are there, so speak directly to them. Don’t be afraid to hone in on a specific person and their situation. The truth is, people make decisions based on their situations. When you identify and connect with that unique situation, you present yourself as an authority; someone that viewer can get to know, like and trust.

The great news is, our entire lives are made up of situations and stories; these stories provide the context and purpose needed to make connections with others.

Your stories are valuable.
Use them to offer hope, relate to others, and provide authority.

A great place to start is the story of why you started your business.

Start with context, set the story up; find the conflicts of your story and explain the emotional aspect that others can connect to, frustration, fault, longing, need, etc. Then bring it all together, tell them the solution; what changed, what was the positive outcome?

The more open, honest and vulnerable you are with your stories, the more impact they will have on your audience.
