Storytelling and Scaling

Whether we are building a template, service, or product, the ability to scale it remains top of mind for the creator. Storytelling is no different. Most people say., " I want to build this story and then tell it across all platforms and for a long time.

However, scaling stories is a fallacy.

Why?

One of the most important criteria of a good story is its potential to resonate.

A story that works for a venture capitalist will not work for a consumer and a story that works for consumers will never work for your employees.

Therefore, a good goal with storytelling is not to scale but to spread. If your story works for a certain tribe, it will spread.

Stay Storied!
