It's the ultimate paradox:
We're awash in information, yet it's harder than ever to make sense of anything.
It's easy to fool yourself into thinking that more means better. That an abundance of facts and figures will help customers make better, more informed choices.
But, it turns out, the opposite is true. The more information we have, the harder it is for us to make decisions.
It can feel sometimes like you're drinking from a firehose.
So what does that mean for your business? Your ideas? Your message?
It means that without clear, compelling stories to give that flood of data context and meaning, you can't persuade anyone to do anything.
Information alone is not enough to move people to take action.
Data is not enough to inspire customers to buy your products, sign up for your services, donate to your causes, register for your programs, vote for your ideas or do any of the myriad of things you want them to do.
Because...
Unless you bring a beating heart to your message, your message is dead.
And so are your sales.
Let me show you how to craft stories that ignite passion, incite action and inspire change.

I was stuck on several occasions where I was completely unable to move forward in my keynote address.
