TikTok Storytelling: High Converting Content Ideas for Every Business Owner

Why do stories do so well in marketing? Well it's simple, stories create emotional connections between people and brands. Stories persuade because they build credibility. They appeal to our emotions and keep us engaged. Stories move us emotionally in ways that ads rarely can.
 
Think about how many times you've been moved by a commercial before: the heroic rescue at the end, the image of an exhausted person recovering in a hospital, or the glimpse of a new beginning after a devastating loss. Each of these stories has been told and retold thousands of times, yet they still have an effect on us.
 
Storytelling through short form videos on TikTok is also very popular because humans are wired to engage with stories. Especially when they are relatable and trigger emotions within us. Stories are even more powerful for your business when they inspire action.
 
I’ve had tons of clients and students go viral for simply sharing their story and from that they gained hundreds of thousands of followers. Believe me, your audience wants to connect with you! In the digital world people crave human connection.
