But First A Little ThinkAbout.

Do These Statements Sound Familiar ?

Getting customers attention and then attracting them to my business has been a bigger challenge lately.

• I’m trying to develop a Social Media strategy for my business.
• I’m trying to determine some of the keys to developing marketing strategies that grow my business.
• The challenge of differentiating my business from competition is more daunting than ever.
• I am looking for new ways to engage and connect with customers.
• If any of the above statements resonate with you, than we can help you. Here’s a few more important points to consider.

 

Business as Usual is a bust.

1. Your Customer’s Expectations have drastically changed. They have more control over your brand message than ever before.
2. The marketing world has been turned upside down. Close to 60% of the buying decision process is completed before the formal sales process begins.
3. The quality of your goods and services are no longer enough to differentiate your business. The fact is people value experiences more than your goods & services.
4. Most Goods & Services have become commoditized effecting profitability in all classes of business.
5. Consumer trust in business is at an all time low.It is quite clear that the same old story doesn’t cut it anymore.

 

It’s Time to Rebel Against Ordinary.

We Can Help !

May I introduce myself. I’m Bill Gibeault, co-founder of Story Mavericks, a video production and experience design company, that helps businesses create new value through strategic storytelling and experience staging.
Our offerings include not only Video Production and Customer Experience strategy, but also teaching entrepreneurs and business professionals, the critical foundations and frameworks, for designing customer experiences and telling stories, that capture attention and the hearts of audiences.

In 2006, I was one of the first business professionals in the Country to earn a formal certification in “The Experience Economy” — Customer Experience Design, a program from Joseph Pine & James Gilmore, authors of Internationally best selling business book, The Experience Economy.

During the last 10 years, I’ve been on a journey (often literally) of study, research-exploring the growing business disciplines of experience design and business storytelling. You might say that Storytelling and Customer Experiences have become a way of life for me since 2004.

While it’s been an exciting 10- year journey , it hasn’t always been easy. I’ve struggled at times, while I figured out how to connect the dots between video storytelling and customer experiences. Let’s face it, adopting a customer centric business strategy and using storytelling in business were not exactly mainstream business. That is changing. FAST!

So my own journey has led me to an important discovery that can help make your life a little easier and a little less frustrating from a marketing standpoint.
A Journey… A Discovery… Time To Share

“The Experience is The Marketing.” The Story is The Experience.

My journey into the growing disciplines of experiences and storytelling has led directly to a very unique but proven way and solution, to help you attract new customers and create a community of people that want to share your story . It’s a game changer.

What’s the big secret?

“Being MEMORABLE makes all the difference.” AND “Being Human -Putting More Heart in Business Wins Big Today.”

2. In a world of commoditized goods, services, marketing etc. your company story is a unique combination of characters, plots, crisis, circumstances and events, that can not be copied by any other business.
