How to Make your Audience a Hero to your Story?
How do you tell a story to your audience? Most of us present ourselves as the hero in the story. We always present what things we can provide our audience with. Our main target is to highlight who we are to our audience. Most of the time we forget what our audience can get from us.
Let’s identify what we are missing to tell our audience that they are the hero of our story and not our business. You may be wondering why and how to do it. With that, let me share with you a great book that I have read — It’s The Building a Story Brand by Donald Miller.
