The
Story-First
Workshop
Clarify Your Message.
Align Your Team.
Move People to Action.
Most businesses struggle to explain what
they do in a way that actually connects.
Websites don’t convert. Emails don’t get read. People just… don’t care.
But what if your message made them lean in?
The Story-First Workshop helps teams like yours communicate with power and clarity—using the timeless power of story.
Led by longtime storyteller and communication expert Donny Granger, this hands-on workshop is designed to unlock the message that’s already inside you — so your marketing, sales, and internal comms
actually work.

We understand the power of story. It is essential as you convert dreams into action and deliver tangible results. Narrative connects our emotion and our reason to form a powerful combination – one that can motivate us, sell an idea, engage an audience and spark unexpected successes in difficult circumstances! Words have power, and when used in a story, are explosive!
See the world through stories
Creating effective content that grows your brand.
Photo.
Video.
Without great content, you can't have a great website. You can't have great marketing. You can't have great advertising. And that all starts with the right concept that can be applied to photo, video, and graphic design that will make your message effective.
Photo.
Everyone and their mother now has a digital camera and (chances are) it's pretty good! But photography is about more than sharp focus - it's about the focusing on the right thing.
It's about more than great colors - it's about editing so the right colors pop.
And it's about more than showing someone or something - it's about creating an emotional response to the subject.
Video.
Some statistics for you:
-
One-third of online activity is spent watching video.
-
Over half of video content is viewed on mobile.
-
Marketers who use video grow revenue 49% faster than non-video users.
-
Social video generates 12 times more shares than text and images combined.
