Smart Ideas Don't Win at Walmart. Persuasive Ones Do. Join us Nov 17th

And you already know it won't be enough.

If that idea landed, this is the day you build the fix.

Every High-Stakes Moment has one thing in common: It Starts Before You Open PowerPoint.

A line review. A JBP. The merchant meeting that decides your season. So you do what everyone does. Pull last quarter's data. Copy the old deck. Add a few new bullets. Hope it holds together in the room.

It won't hold. Not because your numbers are wrong. Because you skipped the two things that actually decide whether a Walmart presentation wins:

Knowing exactly who's across the table. And building a story structure that moves them to yes.

That's what this day is about.

The Persuasive Storytelling Bootcamp Live. In-Person. Hands-On.

This is a full-day working session for managers and leaders who are done with presentations that should have landed - and didn't.

Whether it's a line review, a JBP, or the merchant meeting that decides your season - the stakes are the same. You need a yes..

You will not sit and watch slides. You will build. Get coached. Rebuild. And walk out with work you can actually use.

What You Leave With

Two things. Finished. In your hands before you walk out the door.

A Completed Proper Prep Worksheet You'll know exactly who's in the room - their role, their priorities, their decision-making style, and what you need them to say yes to. No more walking in and hoping you read the room right. You'll already know. Whether that room is in Bentonville or your own boardroom.

A Finished Storyboard Not an outline. Not a list of bullet points. A sequenced, structured story - with a hook that earns attention, a situation grounded in facts your audience recognizes, a root cause that reframes the problem, a big idea that creates belief, and a clear, personal case for why they should act.

This is the architecture behind every presentation that actually moves a room.

What Actually Happens During the Session

Morning: Proper Prep You'll work through a real account or upcoming meeting. By lunch, you know your audience cold - their world, their pressure, their style. And you know exactly what you're asking them to do.

Afternoon: Structured Story You'll build your Storyboard from the ground up using the Persuasive Storytelling Framework. Direct coaching. Real feedback. A story that's ready to deliver - not still in draft form on the drive home.

Why This Is Different

Most presentation training teaches you how to clean up your slides.

This teaches you what to say, in what order, and why that sequence changes how people make decisions.

You will learn:

• Why most presentations create resistance before the first slide lands
• How to open in a way that earns the room's attention in the first 60 seconds
• The exact story structure that makes your recommendation feel logical, not like a sales pitch
• How to make the "What's In It For Me" feel personal - not generic

This is persuasion architecture. Not slide design.

If You're Wondering

"I've done presentation training before." Most training polishes what you have. This changes how you build it.

"I present all the time - I'm decent at it." Then you already know how much a stalled decision costs. This is for people who want to stop leaving wins on the table.

"Is this going to be a long day of theory?" No. You'll spend the majority of the day doing the work - on your real accounts, your real meetings, your real stories.

Your Next Big Presentation Is Already On the Calendar.

The question is whether you'll walk in with a polished deck - or a story that wins.

Seats are limited to protect the coaching experience. When capacity is reached, registration closes.

Because smart ideas don't win. Persuasive ones do.
