A Story is a Deal
A Story is a Deal
How to cement brand loyalty, craft irresistible pitches and lead persuasively by harnessing the science of storytelling
Using the latest findings from social psychology, evolutionary psychology, organisational psychology, and neuroscience, A Story is a Deal argues that we won't unlock the true power of story if we treat it merely as something we read on a page, see on a screen, or hear in a speech. Storr shows how successful stories shape identities, which changes beliefs, drives action, and achieves extraordinary results.
With examples ranging from Aztec rituals to Apple's legendary advertising successes (and long-forgotten fails), A Story is a Deal lays out a revolutionary new method for creating the most persuasive messaging: by harnessing the power of our storytelling brains.

About the Author
Award-winning, bestselling writer Will Storr has spent over a decade exploring the origins and importance of stories and the power they have over us, personally and collectively. His work has garnered widespread admiration from writers, comics, public intellectuals and cultural commentators alike, all drawn to his ability to explore the human condition in a way that is both approachable and empirical.
Storr has presented his Science of Storytelling workshop across the world.

Storr is the author of six widely acclaimed books including Selfie and The Status Game, and he also collaborates with high profile figures as a ghostwriter and story consultant. His journalism has appeared in titles such as the Guardian, Sunday Times, New Yorker and New York Times. He has been recognised with numerous awards, including the National Press Club award for excellence, the AFM award for Best Investigative Journalism and prestigious honours from Amnesty International and the One World Press Awards for his work on sexual violence against men.Also by Will Storr
