The Story Factor: A Chat with Annette Simmons

Hello everyone! After a few weeks of travel and craziness, the show will be back Feb 28th.

I'm Kathy Klotz-Guest, host of Jargonorrhea Live - A Viral Marketing Show, and CEO of marketing firm, Keeping it Human. My company turns marketing-speak into human speak and stories that get results!  If you're looking for jargon-monoxide poisoning, spin and BS, we're happy to recommend our competition. You can find me at http:www.keepingithuman.com.

Storytelling has experienced a resurgence lately for a number of reasons. Yet, storytelling is the oldest (original!) "social" medium. Humans are wired for stories. When you connect with your audience at a visceral level, you're able to differentiate yourself in a sea of marketing noise and inspire action. Move over big data; the story sheriff is in town!

• What matters most in business storytelling?
• How do you get started?

Join me on Feb 28th for a  lively and fun discussion with Annette Simmons, storyteller and author of The Story Factor and Whoever Tells The Best Story Wins.  We'll see you soon.
