Lorrie Morgan-Ferrero, Expert Copywriting Strategist, wrote a blog "Spinning Your Copy with Storytelling". She says "Nothing pulls us in psychologically more than a good story. Like a spider weaving it’s attractive net drawing you deeper, spin your own story...." That line made me think about some ways we talk about storytelling, spinning a yarn, spin a tale, weave a story.
Spinning a yarn had me envisioning the listener being wrapped by yarn as an expert weaver turns the spinning wheel. Good stories told well do indeed envelope the listener by involving the imagination, emotion and intellect. After a good story it sometimes luxuriates in the brain for awhile giving an after glow feeling to the listener.
Maybe that intense of a feeling isn't present in all business stories but listeners should be captured by the spinning and transported to a better world, one where your product or service improves life. Weave a beautiful tale and grab your customer's business.
