Storytelling on Social (That Breaks the Mold) | Neal Foard

communication content creation inspo stories storytelling Aug 29, 2024

If you look up the name “Neal Foard” on social media, you will see a man standing in front of a black background telling stories. No flashy edits, no animations or jump cuts. It’s just him, the camera, and while staring straight into the screen, delivering powerful, personal stories.

Guess what? It’s working.

As an award-winning advertising and marketing creative professional with over three decades of experience, Neal has crafted successful campaigns for global brands such as Budweiser, Lexus, and Sony. Recently, he has brought that skill online.

A few weeks ago, I asked previous guest Rain Bennett who one of the best storytellers he knows is. He said, hands down, it was Neal Foard. When I visited Neal’s pa lge, I was shocked to find him breaking so many social media rules and still knocking it out of the park. I had to have him on the show to pick his brain about storytelling.


IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL HEAR:

  • How he develops his storytelling style and becomes comfortable with his delivery
  • How he uses intentional vocabulary and scripts his content
  • How he connects with his audience by shifting his energy and intention
