What does storytelling have to do with marketing in Kansas City? Everyone holds stories that deserve attention. Our daily communications hold a variety of different types of storytelling. Have you ever stopped to think how many stories (true to life or fake) that you tell per day? As a human race, we are full of history, ideas, imagination, passion and creativity. We believe, storytelling plays a big role in your success marketing in Kansas City. It is the basis of every business. Why? Because everyone has a story to tell. How did they get started? Where did their ideas come from? What was their inspiration? What do they want to tell the public? What does a business want to portray? Let’s stop and take a look at people who have a story to tell. People that we all know, but how well do we know them?

Mr. Kendrick Kang-Joh “Ken” Jeong, otherwise known as Mr. Chow in the Hangover, started out by receiving an MD degree and launching a career as a family physician. I’m sure his clients got many laughs when visiting his office. He was also a breast cancer survivor. Now, as a well renowned actor, he enjoys weekends off and time off from filming, which he would never have gotten as a Dr. He is living his dream!

An old soul sat out on the porch of his home, in Los Angeles, every morning drinking coffee under the Hollywood sign. He sat facing out toward the neighboring home of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt. Angelina came across the inspiring story of this man, Louis “Louie” Zamperini and decided to go up the hill and meet him. “Unbroken” was born.
