Your Story Begins Here

Discover your stories and the emotions that connect you with your customers

Every night at bedtime, Mom always read stories. She didn’t bore you with case studies, white papers, and endless sales pitches. Recreate those feelings and connections as you share your stories with your customers. Your once upon a time and happily ever after starts now…

Have you ever played the game “Find the Penny?” It’s not very difficult to play and creates hours of fun. But, my story with this timeless game goes much deeper.

Will you let me share it with you?

Find the Penny

Real Stories Create Trust

Relationships that last are built on TRUST, not on statistics, analytics, nor any other traditional marketing tactic. And you create TRUST when you connect on an emotional level with others. Stories make this possible.

Emotions Trigger Conversions

Author, Marketing & Writing With Heat, Not Hype

Chad was simply amazing. He weaved stories into his lessons that captivated the audience and helped really drive his points home. He was funny and engaging but also made you think about the deeper ideas of marketing. I highly recommend him as a speaker and he also does amazing social media work!

Andrea Vahl

Author, and International Speaker

He reminded us that being in business, having a brand and figuring out how to connect with your core audience, isn’t about a storyboard, or mathematically selling a product to a target market...it’s about connecting authentically through stories, an ability we all have. Chad brings with him a perspective that is unique to his personal experience but one that others can relate to, and identify their own story in. If you are looking to book a speaker for your next event, Chad is it.

Chad Illa-Petersen is a truly gifted speaker and more importantly storyteller. I have attended hundreds of conferences and thousands of sessions in my lifetime and very few people have been able to captivate me and hold my attention as well as Chad did. Not only did I laugh and cry but I am sure he elicited every emotion that anyone can feel in a 30-minute session. I would recommend you have Chad as a speaker at your event as he will not disappoint.
