Let’s get your story told.

Jack Dyer🕺

Storytold is one year old today!



12 months ago, I registered
Storytold™ with Companies House.


I was so thrilled when I chose the name
because I started this with a simple goal:


To help leaders get their story told.


But as I’ve spent last year with
Managing Directors and company
Presidents from Los Angeles to Dubai,
I learned something far more important.


Getting your story told is only ONE
part of what leaders actually need.


They also need a system that leverages
their authority into opportunities.


That’s why this year I’m evolving Storytold
into the company it was always meant to be:


A strategic partnership.
Here’s what it looks like:


Posts:
❌ No more “what shall I post today”;
✅ We’re building a narrative about you.

Impressions:
❌ We’re not seeking more visibility;
✅ We’re attracting more opportunities.

DMs:
❌ We’re not adding more inbox noise;
✅ We’re nurturing the right relationships.

Reputation:
❌ We’re not just making you known;
✅ We’re leveraging your personality.

Authority:
❌ We’re not writing “content”;
✅ We’re demonstrating your authority.


We’ve been acting as Strategic Partners
for about 4 months now, and in 2026
this becomes our standard with the 
Storytold™ Authority System.


And to celebrate our birthday,
I’ve upgraded our website:
www.storytold.co.uk


Thank you to every partner who trusted
us in 2025 and are staying with us.
I've never been more excited to
get you more opportunities.


And to everyone new: If you’re ready
for your reputation to start working
as hard as you do, we should talk.

And we'll get your storytold. 





#LinkedIn  #workmilestone

CEO, Storytold | Top 1% LinkedIn Storyteller | We turn C-Suite Leaders into the most trusted voice in their market. Zero posting. Zero micromanagement. Real authority that drives deals.

Here's why I've been fairly quiet on LinkedIn for the last few days. 


Something big is coming. 


Really big.


And it's not bigfoot.


It's an evolution of what Storytold™
does, to the dedicated partnership 
we were always meant to be.


Year 1, we were finding our feet.
Trying things. Seeing what worked.


But in Year 2...


We're kicking our value into overdrive
with a systemised, analytics-informed
partnership that guarantees success.


I'll say that again: We GUARANTEE success.


How many people can say that?

Watch this space over the coming days.

Trust me on this one.

Last year I learned that visibility isn’t about being louder, but about being clearer.



Many senior leaders
think LinkedIn isn’t working
because they don’t post enough.

They see others posting every day,
sharing wins and getting attention,
and they think volume = authority.


It doesn’t.


Leaders miss opportunities
because their public reputation
doesn’t reflect who they really are.


You know an English guy who goes to
France and talks in English, and when
the French don’t understand him he
just yells even louder in English?

Yeah, that doesn’t help him get understood.



It’s the same on LinkedIn.

You don’t win by being louder.

You gain opportunities when you’re CLEAR.



✔️ A clear authority beats clever posts.
✔️ Consistency beats “going viral”
✔️ A human story attracts more
opportunities than a perfect post.


When you get clear:

→  People recognise you faster
→  Trust builds up in the background
→  Conversations start warmer
→  Opportunities come earlier
→  Your authority works for you

Because your reputation finally
matches your level of leadership.



LinkedIn isn’t a platform.
It’s a public record of your reputation.

Every post either compounds
your authority or weakens it.

If you want your authority to work for
you without taking more of your time,
that’s the system we build and run.

Success in 2026 isn’t about visibility.
It’s about leverage, reputation, and legacy.

And once it’s built, it keeps working.

What if you could become the go-to authority in your space without being online every day?



Most Managing Directors are
frustrated. They know LinkedIn
is a "Public Reputation Ledger,"
but they're exhausted by having
to be on here 24/7 to stay relevant.


It’s true: visibility requires a huge
time investment. First to learn
HOW to grow on LinkedIn…


(like me, from 740 to 50,000 followers)


Then it takes time to leverage
your authority into opportunities.


But the time spent figuring all this
out doesn’t have to be YOURS.


If you're spending hours each week
trying to "figure out" what to post,
you aren't leading. You’re just busy.


You're treating your reputation like
a chore instead of the appreciating
business asset it actually is.


What if you stopped "posting" and started positioning?


Imagine a system where:

→  Your time is protected: 
You spend just one hour a week with a strategic partner.

→  Your expertise is extracted: 
Your unique worldview is turned into a high-impact narrative that AI could never replicate.

→  Your reputation compounds: 
Your presence builds trust and opens doors while you’re focused on running your organisation.
‌
 

The Storytold™ Authority System
I designed took me from 740 to
50,000 followers (and counting).
 
It took me from employee to CEO.
 
It’s designed to take the execution burden
off your shoulders entirely. We install the
infrastructure; you gain the leverage.

This is the missing piece on most LinkedIn profiles.



Not a rebrand.
Not more activity.
Not a new website.




PERSONAL AUTHORITY.




A Director said to me before Christmas:
“Jack, we’re visible everywhere…
but we’re still struggling.”
And he was right.


When we analysed his posts compared to
the authority we build with the Storytold™
system, his issue wasn’t a lack of visibility.

It was that his presence didn’t signal leadership.

His profile explained what his company
does but not who he is as a PERSON,
and not why he should be trusted.


So we didn’t add more noise.
We installed a clear system.

What changed:

→  His profile became a position of authority, not a CV

→  His message clearly stated who he’s for and why he matters

→  His presence became consistent, intentional, and recognisable


Nothing dramatic overly professional.
We made him human, not corporate,
with a solid personal brand identity.
The impact after a week was clear:


✔️  His reputation strengthened
✔️  Opportunities appeared without chasing
✔️  Conversations warmed before they started
✔️  Time spent “explaining” dropped to near zero
✔️  4 leads booked with context already established


His visibility alone wasn't enough to create leads.
But once he started using our proven system to 
leverage his authority, leads became inevitable.


When your authority is clear,
everything else accelerates.

If LinkedIn is unrewarding,
you don’t need to do more.

You need to be positioned properly.
That’s what we do at Storytold™.

We help serious leaders turn LinkedIn
into a long-term authority system that
compounds trust, protects time, grows
net worth, and increases opportunities.

Let’s leverage your authority,
properly, and let it compound.

If you want 2026 to be the year your
reputation finally works for you,
you know how to contact me.

This Christmas I learned that I'm a very different person to my parents.



Most Christmas meals are interesting for one reason or another. Usually there’s some kind of family drama. But this wasn’t so much drama, as it was a quiet, sad realisation that I’m a totally different person to the man my parents think I am.


Growing up, I learned my value system by

→ believing just what they believe
→ judging based on their judgement
→ seeing the world through their eyes

And for the most part, this was fine.
They taught me many positive values
while providing a loving, stable home.


But over one conversation this Christmas, I realised that the way they see the world - and the way they taught me to see the world - held me back in life more than they’ll ever realise.


They taught me to believe things about
myself that are just not true. Things like:


Belief ONE:
I have to be conscientious and caring to others (above all else). I love this characteristic, that I care about others. But my mum told and taught me on a daily basis, with her words and actions, that “it’s better to be kind to others than to be successful”.


Translation:
(from her world view): Be kind to others, even if it means being unkind to yourself. So I spend years putting EVERYONE ahead of myself, and giving so much away that there was nothing left for me.


Belief TWO:
I have to like only what my parents like. I’ve been in so many conversations with them where I’ve shared my new (usually niche or high-concept interests), only for them to shut the conversation down, or move it on to another topic - one that THEY like. Every time I learned something unfamiliar to them, they didn’t really encourage it. They tolerated it, and preferred to only talk about things they already liked and understood.


Translation:
We’re only interested in you if you’re interestING to us. So to make my parents happy, I kept my interests limited to ones they could understand. I never even TRIED to learn or do new, exciting things, because it would cause a chasm between me and my parents (see belief one - putting other people first).


There are many other examples,
but this Christmas it all became
clear during one conversation.


And honestly, I don’t even know why
I’m sharing this with you right now.


Except that since I started Storytold™,
I’ve been putting my team first, PLUS
I’ve finally started listening to what I
want, too. Rewriting belief number 1.


And I have so many interests that
I haven’t dared to explore yet.


But one thing’s for damn sure.


2026 is the year to start.




What beliefs are you rewriting in 2026?

#GetYourStorytold

Most senior leaders don’t have a visibility problem. They have an authority gap.



You are respected in your organisation.
Your peers trust your judgment.
Your track record is proven.

But externally, on the
"Public Reputation Ledger" of
LinkedIn, your influence is fragmented.


When an investor or a potential partner
looks you up, do they see the executive
authority you’ve spent 20 years building?

Or do they see several "polished" posts
that say everything and mean nothing?

The distance between your internal
credibility and external perception
is where opportunities are lost to
leaders who are simply louder.


This isn't a marketing problem.


It's a system failure.


Most leaders think they need to be
"better at content." No. They don't.

They need an Authority System that
turns their ideas into public leverage.

Facts and statistics don't build authority.
Strategic narrative control does.

When we install the Storytold™
Authority System, we stop the
"leaks" in your reputation.


→  We extract your executive worldview
to define a clear, strategic narrative.

→  We architect a presence that builds
trust before you even enter the room.

→  We operate the system with total
autonomy, protecting your most
valuable asset: your time.


The goal isn't "more posts."
It’s to ensure that when your
name is mentioned, the decision
is already moving in your favor.


If you're a Managing Director or
President with a long-term mindset
and you’re ready for your authority
to start working harder than you do...
