Digital Storytelling

Let’s Tell Your Story to the World!

You have a story to tell. So let’s find out the best way to tell it.

You have a story to tell. You’re an expert in the area of your business, so you can write blog posts over that area. The customers of your business have a story about how you helped them that you can tell. If you have events, those have a story as well. And you can also tell the story of how you built your business and how you make your products.

And there are a lot of ways to tell that story. There’s the traditional text-based story for people to read. There are also photo stories, which can help bring the story to life in rich and colorful ways. And video stories can take the viewer where they might not be able to otherwise.

I want to help you tell your story in the most effective way possible. Whether it’s a written story, photo story or video story, I can help that story come to life so that you can share your story with the world.

How I Can Tell Your Story

Text-based Stories

For advanced as technology has gotten these days, text-based stories are still a powerful storytelling tool. They allow for in depth analysis and explanation. You can convey emotion and meaning. So whether you need a simple blog post, case study or other website-related copy, I can help you come up with the necessary words to help tell your story.

Photo Stories

As the technological age grows, we’re becoming drawn more and more to images. Still images can tell a story all by themselves. The lighting. The reactions. The subject matter being shown. A great photo can tell a lot. If you have a story that you want to be told through photos — whether it’s the story of your business or an event you have — I can help get the shots you need to tell it effectively through photos.

Video Stories

If a photo is worth a thousand words, what does that make video. Video allows viewers to see the images and story, but also hear from the subjects involved in the story. It draws out emotion and can create a sort of bond between the viewer and the subject. If you want to tell your story or the story of your business through video, I can ask the right questions, get the right shots and put it all together to help you share your story through this amazing medium.

Content Planning

Writing blog posts and creating other content seems easy at first. But what content should you be creating? What content is working and you should be creating more of? Creating the right content is the real challenge. I can help sort through your analytics to figure out what content works and what you should be doing more of to help your content marketing efforts.

I am extremely fortunate to have gotten to meet and work with Jacob. He takes my web designs and brings them to life on the internet. He is very professional, knows his stuff, and delivers an outstanding product that is on-time and within budget. I look forward to working with him again on future projects.
