0/5 ( ratings)
“Storytelling for Startups” by Mark Evans, startup marketer/brand storyteller and principal with ME Consulting, puts the spotlight on the value of storytelling at a time when consumers are multi-tasking, distracted and overwhelmed with information.

“In a world where information and endless content overwhelm us daily, it is the power of story that allows us to cut through the noise. Mark’s book is a fantastic roadmap that details how to create and use story across mediums and platforms. Storytelling for Startups is essential reading for any company that wants to get noticed in a digital age.” David Usher – musician and author of Let the Elephants Run

This book delivers value and insight for entrepreneurs, startups, small business owners and people who want to grow their businesses and who believe storytelling can play a key role in their success. They recognize stories can give their startup a competitive edge, create an exciting brand personality, and, in the process, drive higher sales.

Evans collected case studies, best practices and data from dozens of experts, influencers and startups to provide a unique look at the value of storytelling to make your company’s marketing and sales efforts more compelling and successful.

Brands such as MailChimp, Tap Influence, Wistia, Balsamiq, Uberflip, The Gorge, Moz, Crazy Egg and HubSpot supported Mark’s vision by providing key information to support his approach, methodologies, and strategies.

“So how do you pull compelling stories out of your own organization? How do you tell your own brand story in a way that relates to your customer? That’s the question at the heart of the book you’re now holding in your hands.” – excerpt from Storytelling for Startups foreword written by Ann Handley.
