ADVERTISERS. COPYWRITERS. MARKETERS.
At the end of the day, the whole deal is to connect with your audience. To build trust. To inspire action.
In this high energy, laugh-out-loud, visionary keynote, Jeff drops truth bombs on how to rocket your storytelling into the stratosphere.
Jeff weaves decades of creative experience (as an author, screenwriter, songwriter, filmmaker and photographer) into the top secret underlying mechanisms of human connection. He even time travels back to tap wisdom from his hippie college days in hot pursuit of his very cool degree ‘Creative Writing with Perspectives from Philosophy and Psychology.’
With big ideas, personal tales of heartbreak and triumph, a handy toolkit of exercises (and an actual mind-blowing magic trick), this keynote will activate, engage and inspire storytellers of every flavor.
Your clients will light up! You may win awards. Inspire generations. Change the world.
You won’t see this kind of thing at a traditional business school. Or at a dead-eyed company or organization. This is marketing and advertising for humans with a heartbeat.
In person/ virtual experiences.
- Identify and connect with your clients’ stories.
- Integrate universal themes to build trust.
- Connect minds. Open hearts. Inspire action.
AUTHORS. SCREENWRITERS. SONGWRITERS.
As authors, screenwriters and songwriters, we need to pen the absolute best stories possible. Stories that move us and resonate deeply with others.
But first, we need to get past our own internal villains—the dreaded Inner Critic, procrastination, fear of failure (and success) and a whole slew of other forces that crunch our creativity, cramp our style and keep us from being the best writers we can be.
We need to understand what really drives us, how universal themes amplify and connect our humanity, and how the broken and messy parts of ourselves are often our great treasures.
This laugh-out-loud, visionary keynote will shout out big ideas on how to fuel your songs, stories and/ or screenplays with the electric juice to take them to the finish line. You’ll learn how to amplify your words with big magic to forge deep and powerful bonds with your audience.
Attendees walk away with a renewed vision, practical tools, and a major dose of inspiration on the road to success.
In person/ virtual experiences.
- Understand how to access the magic of storytelling for maximum emotional impact.
- Identify the why that drives your stories, songs and screenplays.
- Make the one decision that will take your best work to the finish line.
