One of the biggest improvements I made in my email and business career was when I started telling more stories everywhere I went.
In my emails, in my X or LinkedIn posts, during X spaces (when I used to do those), during consultation calls, in the DMs to explain concepts and close prospects, or simply outside of business when talking with friends or family members.
No matter when or where.
It’s always a good time to be telling stories—not to mention how good of a practice it is to develop your own storytelling and, in turn, your copywriting abilities.
I've never come across a situation where sharing a well-told and relevant story didn’t help me out in any way, shape, or form.
And I don’t want you to read this and think you have to become a guru who doesn’t shut up about storytelling tips, tricks, tactics, or god forbid, teaches you how to use ChatGPT to tell better stories, yet never actually tells any stories.
Seriously, there’s a direct inverse relation between how often someone shares storytelling tips and how often someone tells relevant stories.
That’s good life advice as well.
Don’t listen to the person doing the most teaching.
Listen to the person doing the most doing. (take that grammar nazis)
And talking about people doing a lot of doing—I happen to do a lot of doing, especially when it comes to sending emails, they get a lot of doing from me.
So much doing.
I sometimes even do the doing multiple times a day, like I’m doing right now.
That’s a lot of doing.
Anyway.
