🤯 The Number One Skill You Need To Learn To Win in 2025
Do it so you can hit the ground running next year

He’s so right.
Great storytelling is the way to get what you want in life.
We are living in the attention economy.
And people want to follow PEOPLE.
Knowing HOW to tell great stories is how you win, sell, build awareness and brand, get people to listen - and grow your business.
Personal storytelling receives 7x more engagement and 4x more reach.
People LISTEN to stories.
This is how I’ve built multiple 6-figures through organic growth on social.
And you can too.

People listen to STORIES.
You need to learn how to package your ideas.
Generic, obvious and boring AI generated content with zero soul is already everywhere on social media.
Most people think:
“OK, let me write stories about our product.”
NO.
↓
Storytelling on content on social media is all about emotions - you need to make people feel something.
❌ talking about your product is not the way to get people to listen.
The better you understand the people you want to reach, the better content you will write.
Understand:
Who they are
What they care about
What they want in life
Their pains
Their desired outcomes
Their challenges
The lifestyle they want
What they fundamentally believe in
Talk about your experiences and attract the right people to you;
things you wish you knew when you got started
a personal story based on experience
fundamental things you believe in
relax and have some fun in public
things that shaped you
personal experiences
make people relate
show your values
achievements
observations
mistakes
hot takes
lessons
failures
wins
âś… Write like you talk
âś… Use short sentences
âś… Create scroll-stopping hooks that makes people stop in the feed
✅ I did X in X number of time to achieve Y, here’s how I did it (people love shortcuts, how-to’s and transformation)
âś… Surprise people - use different formats (video, poll, carousel, template, photos, text only, etc)
Provide value.
And be consistent.
Here are 6 examples of this:
Example 1 → founder story
Example 2 → bet on yourself
Example 3 → a personal story based on experience
Example 4 → social proof - here’s how we’ve grown
Example 5 → remote work and what it means for people all over the world
Example 6 → let other people mirror themselves in you
Tell stories and make people feel something.
That’s how you build a brand.
And grow your business âś…
And if you don’t want to, or don’t have time: hire someone who can do it for you.
Hope you are having a fantastic end of the year with your family.
Talk soon,
Hanna
