    If you want to become a better writer, salesperson, or just become more persuasive in general…
    Then you need to master the ancient art of storytelling.
    Why? Well, it’s simple really…
    Humans like stories.
    We’ve been hardwired over thousands of years of evolution to pay attention to them.
    Long before we learned how to write, stories provided us with purpose, meaning, a sense of community, and personal identity.
    Stories helped us make sense of the world…
    And pass on important lessons…
    They were how we related to one another and how we coped through stressful times and uncertainties.
    We’ve been bred to pay attention to (and believe in) stories.
    Because remember - you can debate facts and you can disagree with opinions…
    But you can never argue with a story.
    So when you utilize storytelling in your marketing…
    You’re using a form of persuasion that comes naturally to the human brain.
    Which is pretty cool, right?
    Keep watching to see 5 books you should read to improve your storytelling (and persuasion) skills.

    When my mom recently passed away I threw myself into reading a TON.
    I've read over 200 books in the last year and I can definitely see it's impact on my writing.
    P.S. For copywriters besides reading good fiction and non fiction, reading good marketing copy regularly is a game changer. 💛

    Hey Alex, Thank you for sharing your inspiring informational video. It was all great. I have a suggestion to the video in this way. At around @6:30 when you said "... ideas that fly", the volume on my computer was higher and almost buzzed my hearing for a while. You got too emotional and said the word "fly" so weirdly. Hope you don't mind. If you hadn't told it a little louder that would be so great.
