Learn how to tell stories from master storytellers

One of the many things I learned at The Power of Storytelling conference in Romania, Bucharest, is that storytelling is the most democratic form of creativity. Murray Nossel, says that people can argue about politics, social and cultural beliefs, and opinions, but they can’t argue about experiences. Your story is what happened to you. I want to take a few hundreds words and tell you about...

How to tell a story through movement

Stories are not just in words, they are also in movement. Danka Sekulovic, a circus artist from Belgrade, explores the storytelling elements of a performance. For a powerful performance you need to be able to express emotion, and take your audience on a journey. One way to do that is to tell a story with movement.

How to host an interview with ingenuity

Interviewing someone successfully is an art, and often people don’t take it too seriously. Companies tend to send their communicative, friendly and approachable employees to get the interview done. And, while these are all qualities that are needed in an interviewer, what’s lacking in many cases are the skills to prepare and conduct a thorough interview. This post won’t give you...

A designer’s guide on how to create high converting copy

To all my design friends who struggle with writing high converting copy, this one is for you. Writing great copy isn’t about your creative writing abilities or fluency of language, rather it’s about having a conversation with your customers.

For those of you who haven’t had a chance to...

The best brands tell stories

esterday sitting in the office I looked around and noticed that about 70% of our engineers were wearing branded T-shirts. They had the GoDaddy brand clearly visible, and later that day talking to my boyfriend who is the CEO of FishingBooker, I realized how important branded T-shirts and bags were to employees. I hadn’t given much thought as to why we all wanted to dress the same, we are all...

No inspiration? No problem.

Inspiration is a fleeting thing, as most of you know, but a content calendar and post schedule rarely wait for you to be inspired to write. How do you write when you really have to and you are not feeling it? You master the art of structuring your article, and you rely on that to convey the information you have in an engaging tone.

How to edit articles for your company blog

Sometimes writing your own stories is much easier than having to edit someone’s. It’s a fine balancing act; giving constructive, actionable feedback to your author, without damaging their own style. The story you are editing needs to be engaging, in line with the business aims (if on a corporate blog), and maintain the unique style of the author. It’s a tough job. I want to...
