I bet $20 you have two problems holding you back…

Problem #1 (Primary Revenue Trigger) 
You’re losing sales because your offer is fuzzy, undifferentiated, or forgettable. 
This is the Language Tax Problem.

Problem #2 (Identity + Demand Trigger) 
You can’t explain what you do in a way people understand, want, or see value. 
This is the Buyability Problem.

Both tie to pricing, sales cycle length, discovery call conversions, inbound leads, and quality of clients.

Clients WANT the transformation you offer. 
But they don’t understand it well enough to buy.

Your expertise hasn’t been translated into clear, distinct, memorable language — language that raises your perceived value and makes buying easier.

That’s where I come in.

I build Signature Language Systems™ that give you the words, structure, and positioning your offer needs to stand out and sell.   

When language works, everything else gets easier.   

Discovery calls shorten.  
Pricing resistance drops.  
Your confidence rebounds.   

And prospects finally say, “I get it — this is exactly what I’ve been looking for.”

Over 30 days we create:

• A clear, distinct offer name and structure that’s simple to explain 
• A premium story that neutralizes price comparisons 
• Signature phrases and taglines that become part of your identity 
• A rollout plan for LinkedIn, discovery calls, and your offer doc

This is not copywriting. 
It’s identity engineering through language, the foundation your marketing and sales depend on.

Proof It Works 
Brian Martinez, a West Coast fitness coach, went from ghosted calls to consistent $500–$1,000 clients in under 30 days.  

He didn’t change his offer. 
He didn’t change his funnel. 
He changed his WORDS.

I’ve written for Fortune 100 executives, physicians, and high-level coaches, but my favorite work is helping smart, ambitious experts finally sound as strong as they actually are.

If your offer is good but your message is fuzzy, send me a DM. 
Let’s make your brilliance clear, distinct, and impossible to ignore.

Brian Berkenstock

Most people don't have a visibility problem. They have a structure problem. 

They’re full of ideas, but those ideas drift. 
From one post to the next. 
From one offer to the next. 

And when ideas drift, so does authority. 

You can’t compound trust with fragmented thinking. And you can’t build a movement from scattered moments. 

This is why pillar thinking matters. 
It’s not a content system. 
It’s a strategic worldview. 

Pillars aren’t about consistency for the algorithm. They’re about coherence for the human. 

Clarity is what gets you seen. But structure is what makes you stay remembered.

Turn Ideas Into Influence

Every coach eventually hits the same wall…
Your message starts feeling “heavier” than your offer.

You built a methodology that works in real life, but not on paper.
Your message can feel bloated even though the offer is elegant.

A Signature Language System solves this by pulling your ideas into a coherent shape:

> A clear, memorable, and distinct offer name
> Labelled steps of the transformation
> Words and phrases that brand you as unique

Don’t let your message drag you down.
When it should be lifting opportunities to you.

You don’t need bigger ideas.
You need a cleaner delivery.

Squishy. Sleepy. Stiff. 

Out loud I say, “generic.”

But in my head I’m more specific. 

Weak language comes in varieties. 

But one thing remains constant…

Weak language caps how seriously people take you. 

I bet you don’t need a new offer, but you may need a better way to talk about it.

Your work is powerful. Right?
With proven results. 

But your words are still on version 1.0. 

(That’s “oh crap” moment #1.)

This means your words haven’t caught up with your authority. 

When language doesn’t match, people underestimate you. 

When language is vague, people hesitate. 

When language rambles, people assume your process does too. 

(That’s “oh crap” moment #2.)

Our message has to function like a clean pane of glass — letting our value shine through without distortion. 

A Signature Language System builds a message to end the resistance you didn’t know you were causing.

Your world-class expertise is being killed by a "C-“ name.

You’ve built a cool offer, but the title sounds generic.

A poorly named offer leaks identity AND credibility at the same time. 

You feel it. It just sounds wrong...

Too corporate. Too generic. Too "trying too hard."

It’s a failure to translate authority into into language that aligns with your identity.

The right name reflects who we are and signals our expertise to the folks who need us most.

That's what the Signature Language System™ addresses. 

And relief comes from no longer sabotaging strong work with weak language.

Your Offer Sounds Like a Bad Wig Looks

Become a LinkedIn authority in 4 months.

Scaling Authority is a 4-month, high-touch cohort for independents who want to command attention, earn respect, and attract opportunities through the strength of their identity, thinking, and public expression.

Created by Sandra Macele, supported by a cast of mentors, and delivered to a curated peer cohort, you’ll build the mindset, skillset, and systems of a leader — and a body of work that proves it.

This cohort is design with a strong emphasis on human connection, community, and practical creation.

Most prospects don’t reject your offer. They just don’t remember it.

Some people talk about positioning like it’s a slogan problem. 
As if clever phrasing could justify a vague offer. 

But language isn’t frosting. 
It’s not a thing you “add” once you figure out your niche. 

Language is positioning. And most of what’s out there is mimicry. 

Dressed-up phrases like: "I empower leaders to unlock their potential." Or "Helping changemakers do more good." (Which may sound noble, but tells me nothing.) 

Others hide behind generic titles because nothing has ever quite fit.

Here’s my truth bomb... 
If your words don’t feel like YOU, they won’t stick to THEM. 

Positioning isn’t what we say about ourselves. 

It’s what gets repeated when we’re not around.

What Real Brand Differentiation Sounds Like

Every unclear explanation of your work leaks opportunity.

“What do you do?” is a question I get a lot…

At one time my answer was sloppy and meandering. Something about 
“branding, positioning, messaging.”

I needed something simpler, especially for folks who don’t know LinkedIn.

Heres where I landed…

“I help businesses make what they sell clear, memorable, and distinct so they win more sales without extra work — because the right words do the heavy lifting.”

It hits several key notes:

> “Clear, memorable, and distinct” captures my value prop.
> “Win more sales” is the big outcome we all desire.
> “Without extra work” hits a universal pain point.
> “Because the right words do the heavy lifting” explains the perk.

If you struggle to explain what you do this is your reminder…

Clarity isn’t always found in more words, but in the right ones.

If your message changes depending on who’s asking… that’s costing you clients.

Your offer should be easy to repeat.
Your language easy to remember.
Your explanation shouldn’t depend on mood, energy, or how coffee intake.

I have one spot open for the Signature Language System, a 30-day process where I clarify, name, and package your offer into messaging you can use everywhere.

If you want...

> a named offer 
> a crisp, confident explanation
> a distinct identity for your offer
> and language that positions you above every “me too” coach in your niche

DM me “clarity” and I’ll send the details.

Does your pitch pass the bartender test?

If we can’t answer “What do you do?” in one breath, we lose.

Not because we don’t know, the answer, of course, but because we take the scenic route to get to the point.

I know many coaches and consultants who feel this way.

If that’s you, say “same.”
I’m collecting a few examples for something I’m building.

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.


Request a Private Authority Call from our website. 

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.

- Jack 🕺

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.
 

Request a Private Authority Call from the link in my profile.

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...
