Clear Message About Clear Messaging

Brilliant work. Succinct, straightforward writing, and most of all effective in achieving results. With his proven track record of success, Don gives candid insight that is sure to help any person who communicates messages (which is all of us). Highly recommend.

Make a brand story with your customer as hero

This follows a goo pattern for ensuring your organization or business tells a story, where the client is the hero and you are the mentor. Following the framework ensures all your marketing efforts are focused on the customer and not yourself.

Amazingly Practical!

Donald Miller has done an amazing job creating a practical, engaging, actionable book. Halfway through listening to this I also purchased a hard copy. I think both will serve me very well! Excited to get to work.

Not to be missed if you have a business

This is required reading for entrepreneurs! I’ve had this in my queue forever but hadn’t prioritized listening to it—then, recently I missed the chance to hear the author speak at my coworking space, Nashville Entrepreneur Center, because I was out of town. Figured that missed opportunity made it an ideal time to pick this up and, wow! Hate I waited so long but glad I finally read it. Even as a brand strategist myself in addition to being a tech founder, I picked up plenty of gems. Don’t hesitate! You’ll be grateful.

Learning a specific branding method

This is not a general book about Branding.
This book is teaching the StroyBrand (or SB7) method.
It teaches you how to do it DIY and this may be enough if you have a small budget and a good preparation if you are facing a professional branding project.
If you understand that in advance you know what to expect and you get a lot of value, as this method is both valuable for itself and gives you some valuable insights about branding in general. And, Donald Miller writes well and speaks well.
Now that you know what to expect, if you are facing a branding procedure in the foreseeable future, I recommend investing those 5 hours in this book.

A must have for any entrepreneur or sales professional!

Amazing tips, strategies, and tactics. I can’t wait to build my true story brand and use this tool to help my entrepreneur clients. The content was easy to follow and not the typical “fluff”. This one book should help many entrepreneurs significantly grow their client base and revenue!
