A novel approach, but....

It is hard to overlook the authors relentless attempts to sell his system throughout the book.

I don’t recommend logging into the website for the Story Brand template; unless of course you are happy to extend the invitation to Donald Miller to continue his quest to make you a Story Brand client via your inbox.

If you are patient enough, you can get some good communication tips; personally, I abhor the practice of automating mail-bombing, however well the messages are constructed.

A 5 hour sales pitch

provides some interesting tips and a useful framework but is very self-promotional in style.

The best book on marketing ever. Period.

You’ll find yourself mentally re-writing your copy; your website content and social media posts will become much more crisp and concise. And if you thought your elevator pitch was snappy before, try looking at it again after listening to this book. Liked it so much I bought the paperback.

If you're familiar with how Steve Jobs used to structure his keynotes using Aristotle’s story framework, then some of this book will sound similar. Narration is excellent throughout. The whole book has a feel as though the narrator is talking to a start-up or small business but the content is definitely aimed at all sizes of business.

It’s an easy listen at just over 6 hours and packs in more value than some of the offerings by other industry heavyweights.

better than a marketing degree

I honestly think I learned more about actionable marketing from this book than from my marketing degree! I very much recommend it to anyone who're looking to grow their business. Thank you!

A great listen, with transformational content

I’m still working through the points, and it’s hard. But it’s made me excited about my own business and brand again..after 4 years of doing this mostly wrong, hoping I can now get it right. Here’s to the good guys :)

The only marketing philosophy you'll ever need

Donald Miller offers a powerful way to think about, structure and promote a business or non profit. It's all about story.

It's all about why humans engage with story and why playing the role of the guide, rather than the hero, will keep customers coming to you for years to come.

At times, the story thing was a bit of a laboured metaphor, but this book is brimming with actionable content and the tools to make marketing and communication simple.

It had the rare quality of not just being a great read, but a great listen as well. Highly recommended.
