An experience of the heart, translated for your business.

StoryJoy is fueled by a collective of creatives, storytellers and marketing experts that are dedicated to drawing out the spirit of our human experience in authentic and compelling ways, bringing people together through your business.

No matter how small or large your company, you need storytelling to support your growth.

StoryJoy has gathered a team of writers & creatives from all walks of life to ensure we tell your story authentically & organically, capturing what makes your business & customer community so special.

  • With every StoryJoy engagement, we bring your team together to discover and articulate the vision at the heart of your business, products and services and explore how you impact your customers lives.

    This is an intensive 2 to 3 day discovery process where we create, contemplate, collaborate for the purpose of deep engagement and connection to your prospective customers. Our clients regularly say how impactful this time is, helping them develop a cohesive team, business & marketing strategy.

  • At StoryJoy we believe that there is no innovation without contemplation.

    Contemplation is the practice of being fully present—in heart, mind, and body—to what is. Contemplation allows us to slow down for long enough to creatively respond and work toward what could be.

    With every project, we engage in contemplative listening exercises where we invite Love to collaborate on the vision for your organization.

  • Every brand story we tell comes with an assortment of messaging materials to help each department inside your organization integrate your new messaging into their operations.

    Most packages come with over 30 pages of evergreen marketing copy, website wireframes, elevator pitch, social media assets, talking points for sales campaigns & conversations, and a professionally designed Brand Story Book delivered digitally and in print.

    Your custom Story Book serves not just as a driver for marketing & sales efforts, but also will prove invaluable when speaking with investors and looking to recruit quality talent onto your team.

  • Businesses that commit to integrating their Brand Story across the organization (from Marketing to HR & Sales to Customer Success) see the greatest return on their investment.

    We are serious about helping you see that return, so we stay engaged and available to our clients, providing creative direction and messaging integration across all parts of your organization.

  • Paying for marketing that doesn’t work is wrong.

    We see it all the time, our clients are paying Meta & Google experts gobs of money to get impressions but not sales. These experts may understand the algorithm, but they don’t understand your customer.

    This is why we brought the StoryJoy team together - to craft compelling stories - the lifeblood of any successful marketing strategy.  We aren’t trying to replace your marketing team or paid advertising experts, but we are serious about crafting stories that help them succeed on your behalf.
