Shouting gets you noticed,
but stories get you chosen.

Are you ready to discover yours?

Turn your business into
a compelling story

A compelling business story is the one advantage rivals can't replicate. But if your messaging isn't landing and growth stalling, that advantage isn't working.

Our S.T.O.R.Y. framework fixes that by uncovering insights within your business that, up until now, have stayed hidden.

A CompellingStory Playbook shapes those insights into messaging that attracts, engages and connects..

The CompellingStory
Playbook

Your business is the foundation of your story, the CompellingStory Playbook brings it to life, providing a strategy for all your messaging.

Our S.T.O.R.Y. framework asks strategic questions of you and your team. Clients, too, but here is where the most valuable insights are found because clients never see your business how you do.

S.T.O.R.Y. insights are tagged as Red, Amber or Green threads. Green belong; Red doesn't, and Amber requires more detail to earn Green status.

Your business story
working everywhere

It’s a complicated world, it's a noisy world.
There’s not much of an opportunity for
people to remember much about us

Steve Jobs

Introducing the founder
Simon Saunders

Simon began his career as a creative, but a growing curiosity about business led to a two decade adventure running his own company and working with clients including Rolls-Royce, Braun, Highland Spring, the Houses of Parliament and Monzo.

Subsequent roles in BD and Marketing in the exhibition, charity and print sector were where Simon began to notice so many competing SMEs sounded like each other. Remove the branding and one competitor could easily be another.

But the truth is every founder led SME has something no rival can copy, a story only they can tell. That’s their competitive advantage.
