Pitch the Right Story and Bag the Sale!
Selling with Stories: Pitching and Storytelling
Stories sell.
And salespeople who can tell great stories win more deals.
Why? Stories build trust and relationships faster and stronger than data and analysis.
When done correctly, research shows the powerful impact storytelling can have on us:
•Stories are 22 times more memorable than facts & figures alone
•Our neural activity increases 5X when listening to a story
•Storytelling lights up the sensory cortex in the brain, allowing the listener to feel, hear, taste, and even smell the story
As a result, in a time when captivating consumer attention is the ultimate commodity, it has never been more important for companies to tell the right stories. The stories that stop us in our tracks, the stories that move us to tears, the stories that challenge us and change our perspective.
