How to Become a Storytelling NonProfit

Communications is very simple -- those with the best stories succeed. Communicating with the media is also very simple -- journalists are always interested in human interest stories. And who has better and immediate access to interesting and newsworthuy human interest stories than nonprofit organizations? Storytelling is not about getting people to donate money or earn media coverage. It's about making your donors and the journalists most likely to be interest in your organization become drawn to your cause and feel committed to something bigger than themselves. Stories take audiences on a journey from thinking to feeling. When audiences move from thinking into their emotional selves with a storytelling approach, you are cultivating a more meaningful and significant relationship and more likely to have your stories told.

You'll learn to:

Envision a atorytelling strategy to achieve your communication objectives
Create a one page storytelling master plan
Build on the essential story structure
Appreciate the top 15 story ideas that media are typically drawn to
Assess your organization's current storytelling efforts
Find newsworthy stories to tell within your organiztion
Craft the messages you want your stories to convey
Find, cultivate and motivate an army of storytellers
Determine the best reporters to pitch your stories
Amplify your stories with social media
Measure the results and build on your success
and much more...
