What’s Your Story?

Derek Barton – Keynote

 

We all have a story, both personally and professionally. If we tell our story right, it could inspire people and open many doors. Told wrong, it could turn people off and even become a deal breaker. Great marketers have the ability to tell an inspirational and powerful story about a product or service so that people become interested and want to buy that product or service. Learning how to tell your story effectively, will lead you to great success!
