Storytelling is key to successful marketing, but what truly makes a story great? What inspires people to come to your business or location?
About this event
Every local business, attraction, destination, and organization has a story to tell, but how can you make that story stand out and truly resonate with people from different places with different values, interests, and motivations? Join Sarah Benoit, lead instructor and co-founder of JB Media Institute, and Abby Rapoport, publisher, and co-founder of Stranger’s Guide, as they discuss the science of storytelling and how to tell stories that inspire action.
Learn how you can approach your content through the lens of journalism, community organizing, and creative writing to develop and share stories that have a more powerful impact, and are more shareable and memorable.
