To binge or not to binge…that is the question
Ok, I have a confession to make…I totally LOVE to binge-watch certain shows like Housewives, Game of Thrones, and my latest binge has been The Handmaid’s Tale. So good! Anyway, I’ve heard from enough of you to know that you, too, love a good binge session.
So what do you think it is about these types of shows that keep us coming back? I’m pretty sure the writers have a secret writing potion they use when they’re creating the storylines and scripts. ; )
But seriously, wouldn’t you love to know their secret so you could create content that your ideal customer avatar (I’m looking at you episode #236) wants to binge consume and can’t stop raving about?
Well, you’re in luck, because on today’s show I’ve brought in a Hollywood insider to tell us exactly how it’s all done. My guest Melissa Cassera is a publicity strategist and a professional screenwriter who loves nothing more than creating binge-worthy content, so she’s our girl!
Melissa became obsessed with how movies and TV shows could create obsessed fan bases, so she decided to figure it out and share the secrets with business owners, like yourself, so that you, too, can create an obsessed fan base through the power of storytelling.
In this episode Melissa breaks down these five storytelling techniques that you can use when you’re creating content:
- The inciting incident (your hook)
- Introducing conflict into your story
- The rule of three
- The conclusion
- The power of “what’s next”
(Don’t forget to download the worksheet that Melissa created to help you walk through these techniques. You will thank yourself the next time you sit down to create content!)
You will love Melissa’s approach to storytelling and you’re not going to believe how fun it is to create content using these strategies. And best of all, you’re going to have your ideal customer avatar LOVING what you’re giving them and coming back for more!
