Online Guided Course

How to Build a "Storybranded" WordPress Site

7-week course | Sept 15th - Nov 1st | $2500

You've gone through the StoryBrand course or read "Building a Story Brand" and now you're ready to redo your website, but if you don't have the budget to hire a StoryBrand Guide or Agency to do it for you, you need to figure out how to do it yourself.

I've created this course to help people translate their BrandScript into a completed "StoryBranded" website.

There are many different ways to build WordPress sites, and you could spend hours researching what host, theme and plugins are best for you, or you could pick a path that has worked for others and spend that time actually building your site.

As a StoryBrand guide, I've built over 40 "StoryBranded" WordPress sites in the past 3 years and I've learned what plugins and themes work well for sites that look great, are easy to build & manage, and communicate clearly to generate more leads.
