"What's the difference between the brands everyone talks about and the ones we can't remember?" That's the question that me and my colleague Glenn are pondering over coffee this week.
He expresses surprise at the over $1 billion valuation of the brand Liquid Death. "They sell water in a can. It's just water," he tells me.
Yet their success doesn't surprise me because they sell it in a cool can (with a cool slogan) and have a unique, edgy, unforgettable story their fans love to tell and show off. It's not just about what you sell; it's also about the stories you tell regarding your products, services, and brand.
In this episode of the Storytelling School Podcast, you'll learn how some of the world's most iconic and successful brands use storytelling to captivate, engage, and build connections with their audience.

A little about me:
Hi there. I'm Kymberlee.
As a Speaking Strategist and founder of Storytelling School, I've had the pleasure of working with over 500 speakers, business leaders, and entrepreneurs worldwide for over a decade. No matter if those folks were getting ready to take the TED or TEDx stage or preparing for a high-stakes presentation with everything on the line, my specialty is High Stakes Short Form Communication. I've seen what works when influencing change and what doesn't. It turns out storytelling is one of the most powerful tools you can have in your arsenal. That's why I'm building a movement of master storytellers to affect change in the world on a global scale to help people tell real stories that have influence and impact. With effective storytelling, you change people's lives.
Since competition for potential client attention is fierce, a story can make the difference between being memorable or irrelevant. You'll find me sharing my matcha tea mishap to discuss perfectionism, my quest for Bruce Lee and Hello Kitty art to explore kindness, or the six months of live blade training I underwent to illustrate presence. I spend my days showing the power of using stories to help cement ideas and bring lessons to life and teach my clients to do the same.
If you think business owners can't tell stories or don't have stories to share with their clients, staff, donors, followers, or investors, I invite you to reconsider your perspective. There's no better place than in business to tell your stories so audiences, no matter how big or small, can understand how you think and what you value.
Now it's your turn... If you're ready to become a master storyteller and effect change in our world, you've come to the right place.
