Get your audience excited about StorySelling

A keynote that helps you create powerful stories, build strong customer relationships and close more deals.

How to sell using stories

Sales are the engine of any organisation, and nothing will kill customer relationships and stifle sales faster than boring self-serving pitches and presentations.

They lose the customer’s attention, they don’t connect, and don’t convert.

Michael’s interactive StorySelling keynote is guaranteed to have your audience on the edge of their seats as they reimagine and reposition the customer as the hero of their stories and obsess over their customers success.

It’s not enough for them just to have a good story.StorySelling combined with charismatic leadership tactics gives them the skills to deliver their customer success stories like legends and it’s grounded in research.

When Michael delivered his first three presentations he lightly touched on the surface of the secret art of speaking, and wanted to know what it was. 25 years later he found the answer, it was three simple words -- Charismatic Leadership Tactics.

Charisma, the magical ability to effortlessly gain favour, friends, fans, followers, fame, and fortune. Michael teaches your audience how to combine charisma with a powerful customer success story so they can become Story Sellers.

This talk uncovers the secrets to crafting stories that pack a punch. Michael masterfully weaves unforgettable stories, metaphors, analogies, and parables into this talk and has any audience hanging on every word.

It’s littered with actionable insights and tangible takeaways that gets people excited about selling. It’s an interactive, activity-based learning experience.

His charisma is infectious. He lays out an easily comprehensible and executable step-by-step process to help people compose their own stories.

This keynote is based on Michael’s most sought-after workshop “StorySelling” which has inspired people to obsess over their customer’s success to increase sales, build strong customer relationships, and close more deals.
