   Attendee Description  
Small business owners looking to grow their business by reaching customers with a unified brand and       communicating their genuine value to customers.
 
   Introduction  
In business, trust in a brand is the coin of the realm. Without a unified brand that is genuine and coherent, the huge investment of money, time, and effort to reach, engage, and move customers to action is wasted. If a business fails to connect, what's the cost of lost opportunity? How does a company quantify business that never was? 
 
But Brand is more than a product or the sum of its features. Brand is ultimately the story that businesses tell their customers and, more importantly, tell themselves. Storytelling is a powerful approach to attract, engage, and move customers to action.
 
Can companies afford to ignore the power of stories?

 
   Event Description  
Effective businesspeople know that there are Five Storylines they need to tell well in any situation and at any time. Do companies know and embrace their Core Storyline? How about their Action Story, Descriptive Story, Journey Story, and Data Story?
 
In this entertaining presentation, Knowing Yourself - Developing Your Brand, Your Pitch, attendees will learn and master the Five Storylines that their company needs to align their business, engage employees, and move customers to action. Armed with real world examples, attendees will walk away with tools for effective storytelling.
