Your story
drives your business
A recent survey conducted by Portola Strategies
discovered that more than 80% of companies can not effectively communicate
what they do, how they are different and why you should care –
resulting in:
- Lost sales;
- Inability to recruit top employees and partners;
- Poor resource allocation;
- Erosion of shareholder value;
- Inability to attract capital;
- Confusion about the company's misson
and market position;
- Friction across the value-chain.
They can't tell a convincing story. Yet, corporate
positioning, competitive advantage, strategic direction – they are all
structured, understood and communicated in stories. How well those stories are crafted and delivered
impact every facet of your business.

Why? Because, every day your story is being told
across the value chain by employees, customers, investors, partners,
regulators, journalists, and industry influencers alike. It's like your corporate DNA, influencing almost every
decision people make about your company and products.
It seems obvious. Yet, most organizations’
ability to define, understand and communicate their story -- internally and
externally -- is woefully under the bar.
