Brand Your Story-Webinar Offer

For time immemorial, humans have told stories. We are drawn to stories. We are moved by stories. We are defined by stories. Stories speak to a traveler's heart.

I have spent the past six years exploring just this – the role of compelling storytelling in travel copywriting, marketing, and sales. And so, I've designed this program based on my own behind-the-scenes process as a travel copywriter.

What I've found, is simple: If you approach your travel copywriting logically, you're speaking to a traveler's head. This is important, because the head is where we justify our purchase decisions. But, stories? Well, I already said it – they speak to a traveler's heart. And the heart is where purchase decisions are made.

So, the question is: What's your travel brand story?

Together, we'll:

Uncover & Narrate:

Your Unique Selling Points

If I asked you, what definitively sets you apart from your competition? – would you have a great answer? As in, the definitive, can-only-experience-it-with-you answer. This is where we begin: with your unique selling points (USPs), which highlight your competitive advantage and unique positioning in the market. And then, we'll pull it all into list you can use and reuse in all your marketing materials.

Your Detailed Traveler Avatars/Personas

And now, if I asked you, what travelers are happiest with you? – how would you answer? If you can't answer with specific details – how they travel, the challenges they face, and how they make their vacation decisions? – then you can't write the story that resonates with them. We'll analyze past reviews, happiest travelers, and future goals, to create detailed avatar profiles – the framework for developing copy and branding materials that speak directly to traveler emotions.

Your Travel Brand Story

What's your story? More importantly, how does your story sell your travel experience? The answer lies at the intersection of your USPs and traveler needs & wants – at the confluence of brain and heart. We'll unite your unique selling points and guest personas, to discover the stories that tug on heartstrings and resonate with traveler hearts, while delivering the justification needed to click "Book Now."

Story Implementation

You have more than one story. Or rather, you have more than one way to tell your story. The best way to use your story is to craft, and then master, a select collection of travel stories you can deploy throughout all your marketing, content, and guest communications. These are stories you will tell, again and again.

Successful travel marketing is simply telling the stories that travelers want to believe.

This package includes:

• 4 one-on-one phone/Skype sessions (total: 4 hours)
• 4 weeks unlimited email communication
• Brand-building worksheets, homework, and support between sessions
• A final Brand Story + Story Implementation document that pulls our work together into an actionable plan
