{ep. 64} The Power of YOUR Story - April Pertuis
Your story is a powerful piece of your marketing strategy. April Pertuis shares why crafting an emotional and meaningful story is key to an author's success for more visibility.
There's story telling - ie, the ability to write a great story for readers, and then there's STORYTELLING - in which a business owner, author, creative, etc create the message behind who they are and what they are doing in order to attract the right followers, readers, clients, etc to their platform.
In this episode we discussed:
- How authors get visibility and build an audience
- Why authors should share their story
- how the story of the author relates to building their brand, followers, readers
- How you craft your story if you don't have major tragedy, loss, or trauma (you've still got a story!)
- Finding the right pieces of your story to share
