I’m really going to enjoy writing this because it is about one of my all time favorite shows, “The Honeymooners” starring Jackie Gleason and Art Carney.
I wasn’t born yet to see the original airing of the series but started watching re-runs in my teens and recently, I bought the entire series on DVD. Even though I’ve seen all the episodes multiple times, I still enjoy watching it and still laugh like crazy. The reason for this is great acting and great storytelling.
The most persuasive presenters, whether in a webinar, live stream or in person are great storytellers.
Stories sell. Stories keep people interested. When someone says, “Let me tell you a story,” you immediately pay closer attention. The #1 best selling book of all time is The Bible, which is a collection of stories.
Do you have a signature story that makes important lessons and helps you close the sale?
If not, it would be a good idea to start writing one.
Here is an excellent article on Forbes.com that will get you started on the right path.
