Storytelling to Lead, Motivate, and Sell

Storytelling with Michael Angelo CarusoThis terrific program teaches business people how to use stories to motivate, lead, inspire and even sell.  It’s called, The Amazing Power of Story and feedback has been nothing short of fantastic!  Here’s why…

Stories are an extremely effective way to capture attention and drive home a point.  Almost everyone can use storytelling to improve relationships.  The storytelling technique can be used by customer service representatives, sales people, and all stripes of leaders from middle managers to CEOs.  Parents can use stories to relate to their kids.

But, the art of storytelling must be cultivated.


Leaders can use stories to inspire, motivate

Many workers have an “authority complex” and resent their bosses.  These workers don’t want to be lectured or treated as subordinates, but they will listen and learn from stories.  Leaders benefit from stories because shared narratives improve relationships and inspire people realize their potential.  Stories help level the playing field.

The Amazing Power of Story teaches leaders how to:

-  Relate to team members and create more loyalty
Motivate and inspire others
-  Keep the story short and interesting
Create stories that can be retold by others
-  Repurpose stories that can help team members
Better tell the “company story”
-  Generate quality content for Web sites, blogs, and social media platforms
Capture great stories on video so others can enjoy them


Use stories to sell more, better, faster

Salespeople can easily use stories to speed up the selling cycle because narratives help prospects and customers appreciate what’s being offered.  Everyone knows that it’s better to sell benefits than features.  That’s because benefits are emotion-based, just like stories. 

Michael Angelo Caruso has developed a program that teaches and–even better–demonstrates how to tell stories that convince and persuade.

The Amazing Power of Story teaches salespeople how to:

- Shorten the sales cycle
- Sell more, better, faster
- Get prospects to use the right side (the decision-making side) of the brain
- Make selling less stilted and more natural
- Teach customers to tell your success stories
- Increase revenue
- Effectively deal with objections
- Help prospects close themselves
