14. One thing that Chip (the CEO of
Wahoo) said to me on the first call

what’s are the steps
to a phenomenal
story?

18. The most effective
stories are the one’s
that impact our
sub-conscious!

19. Sir Alex Ferguson
One of the most successful
managers in football history.
Lets learn from him!

21. A successful story needs
1. Character(s)
2. Scenario
3. Time
4. Reason

22. Rule #1
To build thousands of $ worth of
passionate word of mouth for
your brand, remember your
business is human-to-human.
It fails when you go the B2B/
B2C route.

23. Rule #2
Stress, Love, Creativity, Travel,
Inspiration, Success, Money,
Time, Relationships, Motivation
Everyone relates to the above.
Your startup story must!

24. Rule #3
Its tempting to explain
everything. But its better to
leave space for
interpretation.
