huuh….what is technical storytelling? 🤯

We often believe people are swayed by fancy graphs, soaring numbers, and “objective measures.” However, research consistently reveals persuasion is less about bombarding our audience with data and more about crafting compelling narratives.

These narratives, can and should incorporate numbers and data, but in a way that serves the story, not overshadows it.

Picture this scenario: 

You've developed groundbreaking technology. You want people to grasp its significance, to believe in its potential, and ultimately, to invest in it. You think "if only they understood the tech, they'd recognize its transformative power." But whenever you try to convey its power in text, you end up with diluted, watered down descriptions that fail to do justice to your innovation. This precisely where the art of technical storytelling steps in….

Technical storytelling transcends explaining the "what" of your product. It's about captivating and immersing the audience in emotions that register on a human level. It's less about the code, but the feelings that the code enables. It's about conveying the passion, the care, the craftsmanship that the founders infused into the very essence of the product. 

It’s the difference between:

Acquiring Customers & Confusing Them
Everyday we gravitate towards products that tell a compelling story. If your messaging is confusing or hard to decipher, you will struggle to convert your audience.

Recruiting New Employees & Deterring Top Talent
You could either share your company’s vision in a way that attracts the brightest minds or you could push them away with lackluster, sterile descriptions of your work.

Establishing Your Industry Leadership & Relinquishing Your Position
Assert your thought leadership and set yourself ahead of the pack by effectively communicating the “so what” of your innovations.
