It’s due to the fact Hollywood screenwriters and filmmakers have an unfair advantage. They’ve been growing emotionally effective tales for greater than a century, and they’ve found out an abundance of closely-guarded techniques to get—and keep—an target target market’s interest.

I realize this due to the fact I’ve been running with the ones equal screenwriters, producers, stars and studios—and the usage of the ones mystery techniques—for the final forty years.

So I’m going to take you in the back of the scenes, free up the door to all of those Hollywood secrets and techniques, and display you ways you could virtually and effortlessly use them to make your tales and shows greater enticing and persuasive.

But first, a bit of my very own tale…

Beyond Hollywood

I first moved to Hollywood many years ago, understanding quite a good deal not anything besides that I cherished films and tv, and desired to one way or the other be part of their creation. After suffering to interrupt in and paying my dues through analyzing and synopsizing scripts for a whopping $10 every, I were given my first process as a tale government with a producer.

In the forty years since, I’ve written articles and books approximately storytelling, made shows stay and on line to greater than 1/2 of 1,000,000 humans round the sector, and consulted on loads of films and screenplays, a few starring (amongst many others) Will Smith, Julia Roberts, Tom Cruise, Charlize Theron, Jason Bateman, Reese Witherspoon and Morgan Freeman.

Hollywood films and tv had been my ardour and my calling, and I in no way deliberate to do something else.

That become until…

My lifestyles modified all the time once I were given a telecellsmartphone call….

Back in June of 2013, I didn’t need to confess it, however I become sort of stuck.

It’s now no longer that my profession become going badly. I cherished my work, I’d fulfilled my dream of running in Hollywood, I’d coached writers, directors, studios and stars as a script consultant, I’d gotten to journey round the sector lecturing approximately screenwriting, and I become on retainer with Will Smith’s company.

But what I hadn’t carried out for a long term become to chance leaving my consolation zone.

Then my telecellsmartphone rang.

When I answered, the voice on the alternative cease stated, “Hi. My call is Russell Brunson, and I’m a web marketer.”

Now you can already realize approximately Russell. He’s the genius in the back of a software program application referred to as ClickFunnels—which has greater than 100,000 subscribers and is now really well worth someplace north of $360 million. He’s had four bestselling books, and every of his stay occasions attracts hundreds of humans.

And it’s a piece embarrassing to mention now, however lower back in 2013, despite the fact that he become already a highly-a success net advertising and marketing guru, I’d in no way heard of Russell Brunson. (In truth, I’d in no way heard of net advertising and marketing, either.)

But I get calls all of the time from humans in all walks of lifestyles who need to come to be screenwriters. So I waited to pay attention him inform me approximately the script he desired my assist with.

Then I determined he had no hobby in any respect in writing a screenplay. “Next month in Baltimore,” he stated, “my commercial enterprise partner Daegan Smith and I are having a web advertising and marketing workshop for marketers. We questioned in case you’d be inclined to do a presentation there on storytelling.”

This become very tempting. I mean, who doesn’t need to visit Baltimore withinside the summer?

But I already had numerous different journeys covered up, I become searching ahead to a few down time in between, and this sounded manner outdoor my wheelhouse.

“Well that sounds honestly nice,” I stated, “however I honestly don’t realize that a good deal [translate: anything] approximately net advertising and marketing. So I don’t realize what I’d have to speak approximately.”

“Oh, that’s OK!” he stated enthusiastically. (Since then I’ve found out that Russell says the whole lot enthusiastically.)

“We noticed your video ‘The Hero’s Two Journeys,’ and we cherished it! You can simply communicate approximately how to inform higher tales the usage of Hollywood principles, and we’ll be capable of follow the ones to our income funnels.” (I couldn’t even believe what a “income funnel” is probably.)

“We’ll fly you there,” he added, “and we’ll cowl all of your expenses. And we’ll pay you lots of money.”

(Truthfully, Russell in no way stated, “We’ll pay you lots of money.” I truly don’t consider how a good deal he offered, however it gave the impression of loads to me on the time. So I figured I’d simply very own my ignorance, inform them what I concept is probably useful to businesspeople, and take a seat down quietly thru the relaxation of the event.)

So, no matter myself, I determined to project outdoor my consolation zone. “Sure!” I stated, and some weeks later, I become status in the front of fifty or so humans at Daegan and Russell’s event.

Now I don’t like to confess it, however on the time I’d constantly concept of commercial enterprise humans, marketers and income humans as inhabiting a totally specific international than I did—one wherein films and tales didn’t count very a good deal, due to the fact their best actual hobby become in making plenty of money.

I was about to discover how wrong-headed I was.

I listened as the participants, who were all very successful marketers already, shared their ideas and problems and hopes for reaching more and more people with their marketing.

Certainly they wanted to achieve greater financial success, but along with that they wanted to reach more people so they could help their clients and customers overcome whatever fears or circumstances were holding them back from the lives they could be living.

I met participants who wanted to provide people with tools, processes, exercise programs, health supplements or courses of study that would transform their lives. These entrepreneurs wanted to help people overcome their problems and challenges so they could be happier, or healthier, or more successful, or more fulfilled—and so they could in turn help other people.

That’s when I realized that Russell, Daegan, and all of their followers wanted to change the world.

As I gave my presentation, they were eager to learn how to tell great stories, and were excited to incorporate the principles I shared into their marketing campaigns. They even allowed me to coach them live in front of the group, showing them how to make their own stories more emotionally powerful by exploring the fears that had held them back, and the steps they had taken to achieve great success.

But the most important revelation I had that weekend was this:

The qualities that make movies great are the same ones that make speeches, sales pitches and sermons great.

That’s when I first realized that entrepreneurs, speakers, marketers and everyone can benefit when those principles are used to create stories that help people live better. And I never again worried that what I knew about storytelling wouldn’t work outside the bounds of Hollywood.

Oh, and Russell seemed happy I was there as well. In Chapter 7 of his bestselling book Expert Secrets, and in the testimonial he gave me for my own book, Storytelling Made Easy, he says:

Since then, I have worked with some of the most influential thought leaders in the world—helping them to craft great stories and move their audiences. Many of these folks are making seven and eight figures a year, and pay me $10,000 or more to help them with their stories.

And that’s all fine, except I can only coach one of them at a time. Even my other clients, or those who attend or view my live presentations or read my writings can’t get the benefit of experiencing all the Hollywood secrets I know to elevate their stories and grow their businesses.

So what does this have to do with YOU? A lot! That’s because…

As I hope you can tell by now, movies and stories are my passion and my calling. And my greatest joy comes from sharing what I know with as many people as I can. I want them to experience the wonder of how stories connect us all, and how they bring courage, love and magic into our lives. And I want you to feel that way as well.

I want to help everyone I can (especially YOU) use stories to entertain, enlighten, inspire, and change the lives of the people they want to help. And I want you to achieve your greatest possible financial and personal success doing just that. 

So I have taken my entire story system and put it all into a series of videos, examples, illustrations and worksheets that will allow you to immediately begin finding and crafting unforgettable stories.

That’s why I am thrilled to announce…

This Is Quite Simply the Most Comprehensive System You’ll Ever Find for BLOWING YOUR AUDIENCES AWAY with Great Stories!

• You’ll help more people than you can imagine to solve their problems—and find the courage to change their lives.

Here’s what you get in this comprehensive system…

MODULE I:

How to Find Your Perfect Story

I often hear people declare, “I don’t have any good stories to tell,” or “I’m nobody special. No one would want to hear about anything I’ve ever done.” 

Well, believe it or not, you have an abundance of great stories inside of you. You just need to know what makes a story great—and it’s NOT because you’re a celebrity or that you’ve done something that made headlines.

Many other entrepreneurs tell me the opposite complaint: “I have so many possible stories it’s impossible to find the right one!” But the solution to this issue is the same. Once you know the qualities of a great story, you’ll be able to quickly go through all your past experiences to pick the best ones.

I don’t mean to boast (a phrase that means, “I really want to boast,”), but it usually takes me less than 10 minutes to find the hidden story inside any entrepreneur. (My record from “no story” to “great story” is just under 4 minutes.)

As you go through MODULE I, not only will you find a perfect story (two perfect stories, actually), I’ll show you how to make certain it’s a story that will impact your target market, establish you as an expert they can trust, and make your prospects eager to work with you. 

MODULE II:

How to Structure Your Story for Maximum Impact

Have you ever sat through stories of someone’s summer vacation, listening to them yammer on about everything they saw and did, as you desperately try to keep your eyes open? 

Even worse, have YOU ever been in the middle of a story only to realize no one is paying attention? And worst of all, were you in front of an audience when that happened?

The problem was not that those stories didn’t have the potential to be mesmerizing. They failed because like most stories, they were built wrong. And all those dreadfully boring stories, speeches and sales pitches you’ve had to endure were unbearable simply because the wrong things happened at the wrong time for you to FEEL anything when you heard them.

In other words, they weren’t properly structured. 

The good news is that for you, the days of seeing your audience’s minds wander are OVER. 

That’s because there is a formula for structuring your stories the right way that guarantees your audience will be hooked—and will stay hooked until they give you your standing ovation at the end. 

In Module II, my 6-Step Success Story® process, based on the story structure you will find in every successful Hollywood movie you ever see, will take your audiences from falling asleep to the edge of their seats. These are the stories that will CAPTIVATE AND INSPIRE your followers and prospects while effortlessly growing your sales.

MODULE III:

How to “WOW” your followers with the Power of The Hero’s Inner Journey

The #1 obstacle that stops your prospects from following your process and succeeding isn’t money, time, or skill. It’s FEAR. 

Maybe they’re afraid of failure, afraid of success, afraid of taking risks, afraid of being criticized or simply afraid of change. But one way or another, their fear is holding them back. 

But now you’ll have a powerful method for consistently helping them overcome the fear that prevents them from taking the action you want them to. And this is how you can touch—and transform—your followers most effectively. 

When you explore the deepest fears of the hero of your story, and take that character on an Inner Journey from fear to courage, your readers and audiences connect with that character at a deeper, universal level. And as they identify with that hero—whether the story is about you or one of your satisfied clients, they will overcome their own fear of taking the action you want them to.

This is how you change the lives of anyone who watches, hears or reads your stories.

In this module, you’ll be able to create stories that will identify and unlock your potential clients’ biggest fears. They’ll not only benefit from following your message, they’ll become life-long customers as well.

MODULE IV:

How to Write Your Story in 30 Minutes

The last time you came up with a good story for your webinar, book or speech, how long did it take you to finish just the first draft? An hour? A day? A week? Are you still working on it?

How much time did you waste staring at that blank page? How many times did you write a paragraph or two, then cross it all out because you thought it sucked? And how many times did you decide you should check your email first, telling yourself you’d get back to the story later?

Painful, wasn’t it?

Ask almost any great storyteller—in OR out of Hollywood—and they’ll admit that getting a new story from their head to the page is torturous.

But suppose I told you you could easily complete that entire first draft in ½ hour? That’s less time than it takes you to watch an episode of Jeopardy. 

And you’ll do it every time you have a story to tell, using the Michael Hauge Story Map®. It’s a simple, fill-in-the-blanks template that takes all the key elements of your story (elements you’ve already identified in Module II), then lays them out in paragraph form, transforming them into the first draft of your story. (Some of my clients and followers tell me this is their favorite part of my system, because it makes the toughest part of storytelling so much easier.)

You’ll have a short, well-structured story with an empathetic hero who hooks in your audiences, pursues a compelling goal, faces impossible obstacles, reaches a thrilling climax, and most of all, conveys your message. 

Even more important, as soon as you have your first draft, you’ll be excited about moving forward with your story, because the hardest part is over, and all that’s left is expanding and editing it to give it even more emotional impact.

Not bad for 30 minutes’ work, right?

MODULE V:

Hollywood MAGIC

How to Transport Your Readers and Audiences from Their Everyday World to the World You’ve Created—the World Where Their Success Lies

By subconsciously transporting your readers from the real world they occupy to the world of your story, you’ll generate the laughter, tears and excitement that will elevate your storytelling from merely good to standing ovation great! 

You’ll be using the same tools and techniques—with the same simple language and style—that 7-figure screenwriters employ to get producers, stars and studios to green-light their scripts and turn them into blockbusters and award winners.

Best of all, it’s this Hollywood magic that will persuade your readers and audiences to follow your advice, because you’ve already given them the emotional experience of becoming your hero, taking the action you want them to, and winning! 

MODULE VI:

Bulletproofing Your Story

How to Soar Past Your Competitors by Avoiding the Common, Deadly Mistakes That Can Sabotage Any Story

Remember that first Hollywood job I told you about, where I got paid $10 each to read screenplays and give my opinions to the agent I worked for? Well one thing I didn’t mention is that almost every single one of those screenplays was awful. 

I don’t mean “awful” like a movie you didn’t like much. I mean “What were they thinking? Has this person ever even seen a movie before?” awful. This is why poorly-paid readers get hired—so highly-paid agents and producers won’t have to plow through these horrible scripts.

But as painful as that 10-bucks-a-shot job sometimes was, it taught me more about what a screenplay SHOULDN’T do, and what great movies do instead, than anything else I could have done.

And you know what my #1 discovery was? That all those bad scripts were bad for exactly the same reasons. They all made the same mistakes of story selection, character development, plot structure and style. 

And that’s just as true for stories that don’t work for business and marketing presentations. The same mistakes and weaknesses show up again and again.

So before you take your presentations out into the world, I’m going to make absolutely certain that whatever situation you’re in, and whatever message you want to deliver, you will never get shot down by all the common errors and weaknesses that will leave your stories, speeches and sales pitches lying in the dust. 

We’re going to make your stories bulletproof.

And we’re going to do that with a simple series of checklists that will reveal all the possible weaknesses your story might contain—and show you how you can fix them. 

You will be invulnerable to the deadly mistakes that will mortally wound other storytellers. You’ll be a storytelling superhero.
