Tips on Better Storytelling

Happy April! As we move into warmer, brighter, and longer days, we can find some of our motivation and drive coming back after the calm of the winter. Let’s channel that into our storytelling for our endeavors! Storytelling is a super crucial part of any business and something that really draws in the attention to your brand. When it comes to sharing your story, here are a few tips to help you portray the best information to your audiences:

 

BRANDING

Though this segment may not be the first thing you think of when you talk about storytelling, it is one of the most important! Branding is one of the first things someone is going to notice as they stumble across your socials, website, storefront, etc. Having branding that fits your story, mission, and entrepreneurial identity is going to give the best first impression and introduction into who you are, as they start to learn more. 

 

AUTHENTICITY

Being yourself is always super important, but especially so when it comes to storytelling! Individuals are always drawn to authenticity, so expressing yourself in the most genuine way is going to help you attract the audiences you are looking for. Human connection is something we all create, so allowing yourself to show yourself, your brand, and your passion in its truest form only helps to tell your story. 

 

SHOW YOUR PASSION

Share it loud and proud! Expressing your passion for the work you do, products you create, and/or services you offer, will never be something negative. Leaning back on our last point about authenticity, passion is a great avenue to express this, allowing you to further connect with your audience and gain their trust, interest, and desire to support you! 

 

In all, tell a story that is true to you. We hope these tips help as you start to focus on the story of your business. Wishing you the best month!
