Summary:

Are you struggling to get your audience to buy into your big idea? Many business owners and marketers face the challenge of capturing interest but fall short when it comes to driving action. 

Tamsen Webster is a part message designer, part English-to-English translator, and part idea strategist. She helps leaders build buy-in for large-scale change.

Here, Tamsen reveals how to bridge that gap, turning passive interest into commitment by crafting messages that resonate deeply and inspire action.

Check out these episode highlights:

• 05:04 - Tamsen's ideal client: Someone with a new or novel solution to a complicated problem. So typically I'm working with organizations' experts that are really trying to challenge the status quo.
• 05:15 - Problem she helps solve: Typically, you're coming in with something new, which means education is built into what they have to do, but typically also can't get out of their own way because that expertise that led them to see that new option is just getting in the way of their being able to articulate what the idea actually is. 
• 06:08 - The common mistakes her client commits before seeing her: You see all of the detail and all of the nuance of this beautifully complex, wonderful situation, all from the perspective and expert. It's kind of like expecting people who don't know how to play the piano to sit down and play one of the most complicated like Tchaikovsky piano sonatas or something along those lines.
• 08:24 - The symptoms of the problem she helps solve: Typically, it's not getting the traction they're looking for. Or they're saying they can't get to that 40-minute meeting.
• 11:36 - Tamsen's Valuable Free Action [VFA]: If you've only got one sentence worth of time, say what your core approach is and what question it answers.

• 16:17 - Q: Why is this so important to me? A: And the reason it's so important to me is because I think our society or planet needs these big ideas. There are amazing ideas out there. And the fact that the point of failure so often is the first articulation of them when that's a solvable problem is endlessly frustrating to me.
