Reasons to embrace storytelling

What this approach to communication can do for you:

  • Trigger emotion in your audience (we buy on emotion, not logic)

  • Pull people towards your ideas (a form of soft persuasion)

  • Build stronger relationships (deeper connection, less transactional)

  • Your message sticks; people will remember what you said

  • A better story helps you stand out in an ocean of noise

  • Educate your audience by simplifying dry, complex material

  • Grab and hold people's attention (harder in the virtual world)

  • People are more willing and able to share your message with others
