The Product Storytelling Cohort

Correlation or causation? Or BOTH! I just finished Elliott Rayner's 4 week Storytelling Cohort, then got this message from someone on my CS team (unprovoked!) about how my title should be "Head of Narratives," so you tell me. No bigger compliment as a PMM than that! This cohort is a perfect combination of learning with colleagues, hands on activities, and seeing the impact of storytelling with real life examples. Is really is THAT good!

The Product Storytelling Cohort

Elliott is a master at the storytelling skill. His ability to translate the structure of the stories we all know and love into selling a product is terrific! He also has a great way of teaching the course and knows how to engage his audience.

The Product Storytelling Cohort

This isn’t “just” a storytelling cohort. Elliott Rayner generously shares his experience and knowledge in an interactive environment that reinforces learning. Each session starts with an activity that gets each student thinking about an element of storytelling on a personal level. Then you dive into the science behind storytelling, followed by a hands-on activity to apply what you just learned. Finally, participants are encouraged to map out their own product’s story. This allows you to immediately apply what you’ve learned to your day job. It’s clear Elliott put a lot of thought into the curriculum and how people learn. It’s really well done and I highly recommend it to anyone looking to refine their storytelling.

Elliot is a storyteller through and through, a great teacher, and quick to help, even with very specific questions. The best online learning experience I had.

As a content professional, this course gave me the right frameworks to make my content stand out. In this AI-led content era, this course is more than foundational; it's a must!
