Communicate, Captivate, and Conquer- Aurora Winter

Join us on the Your Message Received podcast as host John Duffin interviews Aurora Winter—MBA, award-winning author, TV executive producer, and strategic brand showrunner—about why “the message sent is not the message received” and how concise messaging can transform a business and a life. Aurora shares how seven words (“five weeks of sun, fun, and tax shelter”) generated $3 million in one week in her yacht charter business, and how a practiced 20-minute pitch at the Banff Media Festival sparked a bidding war and launched her screen career, while teaching her to prepare what to ask for when success arrives. Aurora dives a little deeper, as our guest explains her 64/4 rule focused on high-leverage communication, her work at Same Page Publishing to “launch thought leaders” by building audiences before book publication, the “movie trailer” and “Netflix series” mindsets, her four human superpowers (stories, style, presence, coaching).
