Bryan Eisenberg Webinar The Stories That Sell

The Stories We Sell: Why Every Click, Every Cause, and Every Conversion Begins with Connection

I don’t know about you, but I’ve never believed marketing was about metrics (even as the co-founder of the Digital Analytics Association). Sure, I love a good dashboard. I built a career helping billion-dollar brands turn clicks into conversions. But at the end of the day, what moves people isn’t the metric. It’s the meaning. And that’s what this SEO Charity webinar was really about. It wasn’t a lecture on storytelling. It was a mirror. A reminder that we don’t…

The Lie the Algorithm Wants You to Believe About Yourself

We are not drowning in information. We are all being fed stories designed to keep us compliant. Every swipe, scroll, and AI-generated summary is a carefully measured drip of dopamine, fear, tribalism, and distraction. Not to inform you. To influence you. Not to empower you. To pacify you. The more overwhelmed you are, the more likely you are to drift in the sea of life. When I wrote I Think I Swallowed An Elephant, it wasn’t because I had everything…

Feeling Burnt Out from Selling? Here’s Why

Yesterday at 1 Million Cups Round Rock, our Brews and Breakthroughs table kept circling the same drain. Why does selling feel like pushing a boulder uphill? Here’s the uncomfortable answer. You’re probably attracting the wrong people. Not bad people. Just people who are not a match. And that mismatch is what drains your energy. Let me show you what alignment actually looks like. Dr. Matt Delgado at LifeSpring Chiropractic had all the right ingredients on paper. A clean website. A…

25 years of words are worlds

Words Create Worlds: Why Two or Three Words Still Change Everything

Over 25 years ago, we wrote our first book called Persuasive Online Copywriting. It was the business card packaged as a book to help people understand the value of increasing conversions. Back then, people didn’t take words seriously. They still believed marketing was about fonts, flash intros, and button colors. I knew better. I had seen it firsthand. The right words, spoken to the right person at the right moment, could change everything. Today, as I release I Think I…

Coffee and the 2 slit quantum experiment

How our Words Create Beliefs

What if your morning coffee had commitment issues? Hot and iced, both at once. Undecided, until you decide. That’s not just today’s vibe. It’s how your brain and your universe actually behave. Your brain doesn’t passively receive reality. It predicts it. It guesses what comes next, then reshapes what you see, hear, and feel to match that expectation. Neuroscientists call this predictive coding.Marketers call it positioning.Storytellers?They call it the power behind everything. If your brain expects rejection, it filters for…

What our longing for nostalgia is telling us

Why You’re So Overwhelmed (And Why You Keep Craving the Past)

I didn’t time-travel this morning. But my brain did. One second I’m scrolling news, inboxes, calendars, social media. The next, I’m a kid again, sitting on the carpet, cereal in hand, watching Saturday morning cartoons like nothing else in the world mattered. I can’t wait to meet my friends in the park and play some basketball and wiffle ball.. That wasn’t just nostalgia. That was my nervous system crying out, “Please, make things simple again.” We’re overwhelmed because we’re off-script.…

Iceberg theory of storytelling

The Most Powerful Part of Your Story Is the One You Don’t Tell

Lately, I’ve been getting overwhelming feedback on my latest manuscript, I Think I Swallowed An Elephant (Kindle pre order is available). But the comments that stick with me most aren’t about what I wrote. They’re about what I didn’t. It’s what I chose to bury. Like an iceberg, the real weight of a story lives below the surface. The part you don’t spell out. The part the reader feels in their gut before their brain catches up. And here’s what’s…

About Us Page should not suck

How To Make Sure Your About Page Doesn’t Suck

Ever read an “About Us” page that made you want to work with the business, or just grab a coffee with the owner? Didn’t think so. Most About pages read like they were written by someone trying to impress a bank manager. Buzzwords. Bullet points. Boring. But that’s not your story. You built something real. Maybe from your kitchen table. Maybe from pure grit. Either way, people don’t want your mission statement. They want your why. They want to feel…
