Welcome to the Level Up Podcast.
I'm your host, Paul Alex.
I went from being a comp to an eight-figure entrepreneur that helps average people like you and me make money every single day.
I created this podcast to help you get motivated and to crush your goals.
Let's win together.
Remember, I have your six.
Get ready to level up right now.
What's up, everybody?
And welcome back to the Level Up Podcast.
I'm Paul Alex and today we're going to be talking about one of the most underrated skills in business, storytelling.
Listen, if you're relying on facts and figures to sell, you're already going to lose.
People don't buy products.
I see this every time.
They buy emotions.
The fastest way to connect emotionally with somebody, a buyer, a damn good story.
Okay.
That's what I'm good at.
So first, stories build trust.
No one wants to be sold anymore, guys.
Nobody wants to be sold too, but everyone loves a good story.
If you can paint a picture of struggle, transformation, and success, your audience sees themselves in that journey.
That's why I always share my story, guys, how I went from grinding 80 to 100 hours a week in law enforcement to building multi-million dollar businesses.
And then in the last five years, it's not just facts, it's a transformation that people can relate to.
Okay.
Second, stories make information stick.
Okay, we're in the business of educating and entertaining.
People forget stats, but they remember a powerful story.
So instead of saying this product can help your business grow, you tell the story of a struggling entrepreneur who used it and turned their life around.
Make them feel the impact, okay?
And lastly, great storytelling creates urgency.
All right.
So when you tell a compelling story, people don't just want your offer.
They feel like they need it.
They see themselves in the story.
And guess what?
Don't want to miss their shot at transformation.
That is key here.
So when they hear your story, they're like, wow, if they can do it, I can do it too.
So what's the bottom line, guys?
If you want to sell more, stop pitching and start storytelling.
Facts tell, but stories sell.
All right.
Learn to master them and your business will never be the same.
