“We have to do a lot of showing in our stories, with examples… not just telling people.”

We all know the importance of having a strong call-to-action… but everything that comes before your CTA needs to be just as powerful!
This week’s episode is a blast from the past — it’s an episode that covers a pretty important topic when it comes to copywriting and marketing: storytelling.
My guest for this episode, Brenna McGowan, is a legit genius when it comes to transitioning from your story to your sell — the one step that so many marketers seem to stumble on.
Brenna and I have a great conversation about what happens when you niche down (it’s not what you’d expect!), what *really* connects you with your ideal clients, and how to effectively weave storytelling into the copy you write for your biz website and emails.
As a major bonus, we also answer the age-old question when it comes to nurturing emails: quantity or quality?
