"Dramatic stories in your emails? Not a good idea!"
That was the advice of a marketing expert - not me!
In particular, he said, emails that begin with an edgy dramatic story face two problems.
First, the story can overshadow your informational content. After all, people open your emails to get information and ideas they can use for their lives and their businesses.
Second, and most important, it's hard to relate to someone who comes with such a strong story. So the storyteller doesn't build relationships. Readers don't say, "That could be me!"
So...why do these stories seem to work for some business owners? Why do some apparently successful people keep using them?
