Your story matters. Especially if you want to grow sales. Attract and retain top talent. Open more doors and close more deals creating life-long customers. But if you don't tell your story, everyone who matters to you will make one up about you. And you probably won't like it.For 35 years in branding, marketing and sales, Park has preached being different and distinctive. But now he knows that's not enough. You need to know how to share your story with the world. After running his ad agency, Park&Co, for twenty years, in 2016 he did a wacky thing to most. He shuttered his shop and struck out on a new adventure to help leaders like  excel through the stories they tell. Now he consults, teaches, coaches and speak internationally, working with brand leadership, their marketers and sales teams to craft and tell endearingly authentic stories that sell.He hosts the popular Business of Story podcast ranked among the top 10% of downloaded shows in the world.Everything he has learned so far about business storytelling is captured in his new book 'Brand Bewitchery: How to Wield the Story Cycle System™ to Craft Spellbinding Stories for Your Brand'.
