Story Telling: My journey

I can still remember the first time I performed with my band in front of 300 odd people.  The 10 minutes before hand are flooded with adrenalin.  Your mouth runs dry. Your hands shake as every possible scenario – good and bad – runs through your head in an instant.  I’m about to bear my soul, to bleed on stage – how is this going to turn out? What will they think? What will I think? I can still remember because I remain with the same feeling now – 8 years on.

An open invitation.

Today begins my inspired journey into story telling.  And I kind of feel the same way.  So much of this is unknown.  I have so much to learn and invite you into my  journey — this will be my story.  I’ve seen, heard and experience the power of story telling and now I hope to learn, and hope to fail.

To start I’ll be investigating..

  • The creation of context
  • Taking marketing beyond a campaign
  • Building meaningful relationships
  • Using the power  social/online media

Creativity, innovation and connectivity.
