where you’re at

You’re good at what you do but not great at marketing it

You know you have something valuable to offer the world but you’re not great at getting the word out. You need to get more clients and income flowing in, but you’re not sure where to begin.

You want to grow your business doing what you’re here to do but marketing feels overwhelming. It’s time to step up and sell more but you hate feeling salesy.

the quiz

This course if for you if...

Two or more of these apply:
  • You want more ready-to-buy customers coming in the door
  • You want to be able to clearly describe what you do in a succinct way that gets people interested
  • You’re figuring out your business model and aren’t sure what your market will actually purchase
  • You know you’re “supposed to niche” but you don’t want to exclude anyone or narrow your options
  • You have a lot of ideas and aren’t sure where to focus
  • You feel overwhelmed about marketing but you know you need to get it right in order to grow
  • You know you need to “put yourself out there” but you don’t want to be salesy
What you’re up against

The current business paradigm pushes for pushing

In countless ways we’re told we need to push for the sale, push ourselves to get out there, push leads into a funnel, push out content, push our bodies to do more, push our business to grow faster...

That’s because we live in a culture that upholds the domination paradigm. Which perpetuates running business on control, force, and hustle-grind. All this pushing is daunting to think about and exhausting to do. But it doesn’t have to be that way.

the way it should be

Marketing should simply be sharing an inspiring message

Thankfully there is a more efficient and satisfying way to do marketing. There is a path, that once you learn it, allows you to do business from the inside-out instead of through constant pushing.

You can grow your business in a way that empowers you and your clients, feels genuine, simplifies your marketing, and draws in the people you’re meant to serve so you can do what it is that you’re here to do.

“I was stuck in the ideas phase of developing my business. Through Strategic Storytelling I connected with my own journey and with my client’s journey. Now I know who my work is for and I no longer feel like I’m shooting in the dark.”
Lisa Pranam,  Founder of Passionfruit Arts

I’m here to help paradigm-shifters turn their gifts into a thriving business

Meet your instructor

Kai Madrone

I understand how it feels to be focused on your mission but overwhelmed by the marketing. I’ve been there, wishing I could serve without having to sell.

I care about you having a thriving business doing what you’re here to do. That’s why I’m here to walk you through discovering your brand story. Because story gives you a powerful marketing message that is aligned with your purpose and draws in the people you’re meant to serve.

Brand Strategist

5+ years strategizing

In 2016 I began supporting clients with their marketing but kept finding that while what people wanted was copy what they needed was clarity. (On their business, market, message, offers)

Thus Strategic Storytelling was born. Now I guide people to get the brand clarity it takes to find the words they need for their copy.

Writing coach

19+ years of coaching

In 2003 I launched my first business, WordStrength Editing, where for more than a decade I served emerging authors as an Editor & Writing Coach.

In 2019 business owners started seeking me out for help with their marketing. So I began coaching and giving people the tools they need to do great copywriting.

Word-weaver

A lifetime of writing

At eight years old I won our school district’s essay contest. I’ve been writing my way through life ever since. Writing helps me see clearly and connect meaningfully.

My primary creative craft of poetry (which I’ve been practicing for 20+ years) hones my ability to tell a vivid story with potent brevity--which is exactly what copywriting must do.

“Kai’s process helps you find your voice. Before, it was like my work was surrounded by a cloud of mystery. My message was broad--speaking to everybody but no one in particular. Now I have a lot more clarity in my business because I’m finally talking to the people I’m supposed to be talking to.”
Ro Marlen, Founder at Sacred Evolutions
