The Write Connection

The Write Connection

The Write Connection podcast is designed to help you choose the right words and stories in your business content to create authentic connections with prospects, clients, partners, and colleagues. Meet Your Host... Katherine Burrows... Founder and CEO of Katherine Burrows Creative, creator of the Business Character Analysis, and Creative Content Strategist. As a lifelong writer and a professional copywriter for the last 12 years, I’ve noticed that so many coaches, speakers, and entrepreneurs really struggle to get the engagement and response they need from their content. That’s why I developed a really unique and powerful tool, specifically for entrepreneurs, speakers, and coaches, who are fed up with not achieving quality connections with their audience. Unlike a lot of other content creators, who still use formulas and metrics, I help my clients reveal the authentic character of themselves and their business, so their audience feels they identify with them instantly. If you’re finally ready to start building an authentic connection with your market, let’s have a cup of coffee and chat.

Do you know how powerful it is to see ourselves in stories?

We know that stories can be powerful. One of the most powerful experiences in our journey of self-discovery is the power of seeing ourselves in another's story. That’s why we know it’s so important to get more LGBTQ stories, or Rainbow Stories as we like to call them, out into the world.

When we can identify with the person telling the story or the characters in the stor...

How long does it take to write a book?

We hear different numbers from different writers over different genres- some of our most beloved books have been written in as little as a few days to a decade, or more.

When it comes to books for our businesses, we often think it will take longer to write them than it does. This idea could be stopping you from sharing you genius with the world because the task feels enormous before you've ...

Whether to run our businesses, connect with our communities, or manage our personal lives, most of us use technology every day.
 
Apps, tools, and platforms can make it easier than ever to write and publish are books- but where are we supposed to start?
 
If you've run into the technology myth, you probably find this all a tad overwhelming.

This myth tells you that you don't have the know-how or the tools to get your book writte...

Why would anyone read my book, when there are so many other options out there?

I hear this all the time.

The truth is that our business books have an excellent chance of being read by the right people- our ideal clients. 

Ask yourself: how many people need to read your book if they are the right people?

Why would a ghostwriter write her own book?

Over my many years of writing for others, I've come across 5 myths that keep my clients from writing their books.

...And I've realized that I too have experienced them firsthand when it comes to writing my own book.

So, where do these myths come from? How do we correct our thinking with facts, so that we can finally write the books that we know will make a bigger difference?
