Karen Dietz's insight:
Now here's a very creative post! Author Vince Robisch shows us how we can take one of our biz stories, cut it up, and send it out in a series of emails. Brilliant! This notion is not new, but I like how Robisch shows us how to partition the story into 3 parts that preserves the story arc. We now have an email series to send out. It's a fun article to read and I think it will get your creative juices going.

How can smart organizations harness the power of stories to communicate with supporters and get them to donate?
If you want to know how to craft email stories to promote your business (or non-profit) and/or raise funds, then read this free downloadable PDF ASAP.
I really like how the authors give tips to avoid the Personal Story Trap (what not to do when sharing a personal story). I think it's great they also spend time showing the difference between 'explaining' stories and 'compelling' stories.
Even though this is written for non-profits, inhale these tips and start writing storied emails and blogs that really work.
This PDF is full of very clear examples so you'll know exactly what to do -- and what not to do. Delete the scoop?

Karen Dietz's insight:
Even though this article is framed for copywriters, it is all about business storytelling! As you create content for your website, promotions, emails, presentations, or electronic materials these 7 tips are essential to pay attention to. You will create more engaging stories. Actually tip #7 is to use stories, which I hope you already do. But I like how the author, Gary Ciotti, talks about stories as transporation. It is a good way to think about them. Use these 7 tips as a checklist when you are creating content just to make sure you are hitting all the storytelling notes you need to.

I've started watching this 1:38:55 hour video by JD Schramm at Stanford University's business school on concise storytelling and I already know I'm going to love it.
Schramm does a marvelous job teaching storytelling and you can find his first video "How To Tell Your Story For Impact" (it is just as long but excellent) in this curation. Here's the link: http://www.gsb.stanford.edu/news/headlines/schramm_impact_2011.html
Now he is tackling how to make business storytelling short, sweet, and to the point. It's geared towards leaders but anyone will benefit from watching this. Apply these lessons to marketing, branding, content creation, and sales, too.
So sit back and enjoy. I know it is going to be well worth it. If I find it isn't, I'll come back and rewrite this review!
