On this week’s episode of the Healthy Wealthy and Smart Podcast, Christoph Trappe joins me to share how you can be an authentic storyteller in healthcare. Christoph Trappe (aka The Authentic Storyteller™) is a career storyteller who has worked as a journalist, a nonprofit executive, and a content marketing strategist and consultant. He is a globally-recognized content marketing expert who frequently speaks at marketing conferences about social media, blogging and results-oriented storytelling strategies.

In this episode, we discuss:

-Why healthcare practitioners should develop the skill of authentic storytelling

-How to promote your story to the world to make the largest impact

-Can ego sabotage your authentic story?

-How to craft a compelling and meaningful story

-And much, much more!

 

Christoph believes that differentiating your brand and attracting customer interest to your unique mission is the key to a successful practice. He stresses, “What it comes down to is whoever tells the best stories wins.”

 

Finding the best channels to disseminate your message is critical for growth. Christoph states, “Some people say it’s not the best content that wins but it’s the best promoted content that wins.”

 

While presenting to large audiences, Christoph discourages reliance on visuals and recommends stimulating a two-way dialogue. It is important to remember, “Story telling is a conversation even when people are not talking back.”
