Making Sure Your Content Sticks: You Gotta Use Stories
Struggling to connect when speaking English at work? This episode shows how using simple stories , not just facts, can help you build trust, sound more natural, and leave a lasting impression. Whether you’re presenting, emailing, or networking, storytelling makes your message clearer and more memorable.
Key Takeaways:
- Storytelling humanizes your brand, building trust and relatability with authenticity.
- Keep stories short, around 10 minutes, for listener engagement.
- Be real and stand out. In a world full of generic or AI-generated content, true stories show your personality and make your message unique.
Vocabulary Corner
- Ephemeral: Lasting a short time; quickly gone.
- Example sentence: “In a fast meeting, ephemeral comments can be missed, so it helps to send a quick follow-up email.”
- Humanize (a brand/platform): To make something feel more personal or relatable.
- Example sentence: “Storytelling can humanize your brand and help clients feel more connected to your message.”
- Build Rapport: To create a good relationship where people understand and trust each other.
- Example sentence: “You can build rapport with new clients by finding common ground and showing genuine interest.”
- Jargon: Technical words that are hard for outsiders to understand.
- Example sentence: “Try to avoid too much jargon when you’re speaking to people from different industries or cultures.”
- Case Study: A real-life example used to explain something.
- Example sentence: "We shared a case study about one of our clients to show how our system improved their workflow.”
