3. What’s your story? It’s your personal branding
It is the impression you leave in the heart of others
(Jordi Collell)
4. “Bio is dead”
What people want to know is your story.
What are your life experiences, and how have
they shaped you?
5. Sometimes we don’t know our story as well as we think.
Telling our story help us make sense of our life — why
certain events happened , the way they did. We begin to
make sense of who we are.
If you simply state what happened in chronological order
you will bore your audience to tears.
7. Which are the basic elements of any good story ?
What’s the conflict?
Who’s the hero?
Where is the suspense?
How will the conflict resolve?
What’s the point?
Why does it matter to me?
8. Use your imagery and have a look at the details
which can make the difference.
Use a protagonist, because your audience can identify
with the events. So, you can capture your audience’s
imagination.
Through stories you transfer your beliefs and values, you
describe the world around you and your purpose.
9. For freelancers:
You don’t need to reinvent yourself ; change the way that
you talk about yourself.
Through storytelling you can build a strong image of
yourselves and your work in order to gain new clients.
10. Your customer doesn’t want to buy your skills but a
vision, a dream. He’d like to know how he can
increase his business goals with your help.
12. A coworker is generally a freelancer, a student or
even an employee who works a lot, and is trying
to grow his job/business, improve skills and find a
new way of working.
How can a coworker find co-operation and job
sharing without telling his true story?
