Mark Twain once observed, "A lie can get halfway around the world before the truth can even get its boots on." His observation rings true: urban legends, conspiracy theories, and bogus public-health scares circulate effortlessly. Meanwhile, people with important ideas (business people, teachers, politicians, journalists, and others) struggle to make their ideas "stick". In this indispensable guide, we discover that sticky messages of all kinds draw their power from the same six traits.

If we play the villain, we will not create genuine bonds. But if we play the hero or guide, our lives will flourish. The hard part is being self-aware enough to know which character we are playing. In this book, Donald will use his own experiences to help you recognize if the character you are currently surfacing is helping you experience a life of meaning.

Why do some products get more word of mouth than others? Why does some online content go viral? Word of mouth makes products, ideas, and behaviors catch on. It's more influential than advertising and far more effective. Can you create word of mouth for your product or idea? According to Berger, you can. Whether you operate a neighborhood restaurant, a corporation with hundreds of employees, or are running for a local office for the first time, the steps that can help your product or idea become viral are the same.

A novel approach, but....
It is hard to overlook the authors relentless attempts to sell his system throughout the book.
I don’t recommend logging into the website for the Story Brand template; unless of course you are happy to extend the invitation to Donald Miller to continue his quest to make you a Story Brand client via your inbox.
If you are patient enough, you can get some good communication tips; personally, I abhor the practice of automating mail-bombing, however well the messages are constructed.

The best book on marketing ever. Period.
You’ll find yourself mentally re-writing your copy; your website content and social media posts will become much more crisp and concise. And if you thought your elevator pitch was snappy before, try looking at it again after listening to this book. Liked it so much I bought the paperback.
If you're familiar with how Steve Jobs used to structure his keynotes using Aristotle’s story framework, then some of this book will sound similar. Narration is excellent throughout. The whole book has a feel as though the narrator is talking to a start-up or small business but the content is definitely aimed at all sizes of business.
It’s an easy listen at just over 6 hours and packs in more value than some of the offerings by other industry heavyweights.

The only marketing philosophy you'll ever need
Donald Miller offers a powerful way to think about, structure and promote a business or non profit. It's all about story.
It's all about why humans engage with story and why playing the role of the guide, rather than the hero, will keep customers coming to you for years to come.
At times, the story thing was a bit of a laboured metaphor, but this book is brimming with actionable content and the tools to make marketing and communication simple.
It had the rare quality of not just being a great read, but a great listen as well. Highly recommended.

Another empty self important marketing book
First, like most marketing books, this one spends a majority of its time on marketing itself to me. Dude, I have already bought the book. Im reading it right now. You can stop advertising. Just give me the content.
Second, I was mildly surprised how the author doesnt apply his own principles in that marketing. The book’s method is the hero, praised over and over in a tone deaf way. Shouldnt, according to the book’s principles, I, the customer be the hero?
Third, none of the actual content seems original and is just basic marketing know how presented in a new annoyingly unoriginal storyline. yoda and luke skywalker. barf.
what a waste of time and money.

Shameless plugs everywhere
Some good information but you'll have to sift through to get it. I'd pay for the 'cliff notes' version but this is not the best utilization of my time.
This is more of a hybrid infomercial/book. About every 20 minutes this publication is instructing me to log on to Donald's website and start something, I'm sure a step in a process to get more money. Starts to get annoying.
If you purchase this expecting a five start book, you will be dissatisfied. If you purchase expecting a 3 star book you may be delighted.
HOPE THIS HELPS!! :)

Literally changed my life overnight.
I've been running a business for the last 10 months and I've had less-than-stellar results. My entire business had been built on referrals up until this point. I had not been able to capture leads using actual marketing techniques, and I'm a marketer for god sakes! I just didn't seem to be connecting with my audience with my marketing. A friend told me about this book in very brief description, and something drove me to go out and get it. So I did that very night and I had torn through it by the next morning. I was finished with it by lunch time and I went home to write an email to a group I've been emailing for months now to no avail. I sent the email by 3 p.m. and by the time I woke up at 8 a.m. the next morning I had three people on my schedule. That evening I spoke to a client and negotiated a five-figure deal which I officially closed 2 Days Later. I was at the point of being completely penniless and this book changed everything. If you're a marketer this is an absolute must read. If you're a business owner and need to Market your business this is an absolute must-read.

Every entrepreneur should read or listen to this book.
This book is so rich on content I need to give it another listen. The basics of the book are clarifying your message and making your customer the hero of the story. Miller goes into detail and lays out the framework and gives plenty of real life examples. This is an invaluable business/marketing/branding book.

It is OK.
Would you try another book from Donald Miller and/or Donald Miller?
I don't think I would.
Would you be willing to try another book from Donald Miller? Why or why not?
As someone who says he has written multiple books and now has written one on telling stories, you'd think that he could write one that could hold your attention and keep you interested. Not so much in this case.
What did you like about the performance? What did you dislike?
While the reader did an OK job, he lacked the enthusiasm that you often get from books read by the author. Sometimes, it is better to have someone else read the book.
Was Building a StoryBrand worth the listening time?
No, I don't think it was worth the time. The first four chapters of the book consisted of the author providing some high-level information as a thinly veiled attempt to promote his website. From a guy that is writing a book on how to market your brand, I expected to get some value that would hold me in the book. This didn't have it.
