Storytelling has become a business buzzword, and for good reason. Stories will never go out of style. Brand or business stories have the power to spark curiosity, make emotional connections, and persuade people to take action.

In this episode, co-hosts Nola Boea and Lori Vajda explore how the power of storytelling, whether shared in the form of customer reviews and experiences, analogies, metaphors, or personal experience, can elevate your brand in the minds and hearts of your ideal customers.
