A STORY FROM YOUR HOST, ROBERT HARTWELL

The world needs to hear your story.

And I’m here to help you get the AUDACITY to tell it.

This mission has never been more clear than when I was sitting in the audience of ROI: The Millionaires Summit last month – a conference led by my best friend, Rachel Rodgers. 

Famed restauranteur Pinky Cole took the stage to deliver a keynote full of melanated brilliance. 

She was asked, “What’s your best advice for entrepreneurs?”

Without missing a beat, she replied, “Get ya ass up.” 

Her words snatched every single one of my edges and brought me back to where I shine: 

Helping entrepreneurs stand in their power, take up more space, and have the sheer audacity to be seen, be heard, and relentlessly pursue every single damn thing they want. 

It’s the mission of the TELL YOUR STORY National Tour.

So here’s what we’re gonna do: 

✅ We are going to uncover your Signature Story. 

✅ We are going to strategize opportunities to tell your story to make bank. 

✅ We are going to reverse engineer whatever results you want—no matter how big or bold. 

✅ We are gonna do all this to the degree that people will be shouting, “The AUDACITY of them!”

Yes, boo. AUDACITY INDEED. 

You with me?

A one-day LIVE in-person event that helps you craft a Signature Story that magically transforms into more money in the bank and more opportunities in your pocket.  

If you don’t think your story is worth telling, we’ll help you reframe that mindset

If you have no idea what your story is or how to write it, we are here to give you a framework

If you need the confidence to share your story, we’ll give you the audacity to believe that stage is your birthright. 

⚠️ This is NOT an event where you scribble inspiration nuggets into a notebook while multiple experts speak to you from the stage. 

TELL YOUR STORY is a group VIP DAY – personalized, interactive, and hands-on.

Equal parts inspiration and “get ya ass up”.

You’ll work directly with our team to identify, write, workshop, and share your story. 

You will leave with a beautifully-crafted Signature Story, the audacity to tell it, and the knowledge of exactly how and where to share your story to achieve your goals.  

OUR DAY TOGETHER

Arrive at 8:30 AM for check-in. Workshop starts at 9 AM and concludes at 4 PM. 

In this exciting, one-day event, you’ll identify your story, write your story, and get it ready to share with the world using our Five-Step Framework.

Hour 1: Visualize Your Story

Envision your dream opportunities and set intentions for the day & for your future.

Hour 2: Identify Your Story

Reverse engineer your big vision into the compelling story you need to be telling right now in your business.

Hour 3: Write Your Story

Use our world-class framework to write a captivating 2-minute story, even if you don’t think you’re a good “writer.”

Hour 4: Workshop Your Story

Practice sharing your story aloud and build your confidence in a safe, supportive container with an award-winning director & Broadway performance artist.

Hour 5: Make Bank with Your Story

Increase your income and impact by identifying your Story Selling partners.

You’ll leave the Tell Your Story Tour with a Signature Story that changes hearts, opens minds, moves people to action… and know who you need to partner with to tell it.

Questions

In addition, your ticket includes a Pep Rally (online/before the workshop) to get you prepared and a Reunion Call (online/after the workshop) to keep the momentum going.

We expect 125 people at each workshop. We rented beautiful venues—including historic theaters—ensuring plenty of comfortable seating and space for everyone.  If you need any accessibility assistance please let us know so we can best support you by emailing hello at bwaycollective dot com.

Imagine hopping on Zoom with a potential client, sharing the story behind your business, and having that person say, “I’m in. Your fee is $10k, right? That works for me. When can we start?”

Picture yourself stepping onstage at a conference and getting paid $20k for a 1-hour keynote.

Imagine sharing your story in an article. Your story resonates with thousands of readers and goes viral. A top publisher notices—and then emails to offer you a book deal.

Visualize yourself speaking to a group of young students, sharing an inspirational true story, and watching their eyes light up with hope and possibility.

Storytelling provides unlimited ROI. 

Consider: Are you experiencing record-breaking sales? Is your audience growing consistently? Are you getting noticed by the media? Are you impacting lives in the way you would like? If not, come to this workshop. Build skills that lead to the results you want.

Yes.

After the workshop, you’re invited to join Robert, friends, and fellow workshop participants at the Reunion Call. This happens online the Friday after your tour stop at 12pm ET. Join from your home, office, hotel, or wherever you are. 

In addition, Robert offers Strength On Stages  in NYC. At Tell Your Story, you’ll receive a brochure with information about these opportunities and how to become a client if space is available.

Yes. 

When you know how to tell stories effectively, this is a million dollar skill. It leads to more sales, more deals, more media coverage, and more people saying “Yes!” to whatever you offer.

Yes. 

If you want to get your team unified around a project, mission, or cause, tell them a powerful story.

Yes. 

To convince someone that your business is worth investing in, you need an excellent business plan. You also need to tell the story behind your business—how it started, where you’ve been, and where you’re going. Stories create emotion—and emotion moves people to take action.

Yes. 

Come find your Signature Story…THE story you need to be telling in writing, in meetings, on podcasts, and onstage.

Yes. 

Come to Tell Your Story. Gain new skills and build greater confidence.

No.

If you prefer to sit in the back row and quietly take notes, that is completely okay. We all have different personalities and learning styles. Some people learn by interacting and talking aloud. Some learn visually or by listening. 

At this workshop, do whatever is best for you. There is no pressure to speak aloud unless you want to. (However, you might be surprised by the burst of courage that comes out of you!)

We do not offer discounts or scholarships for Tell Your Story.

If $695 or $995 feels like a stretch right now, a few suggestions:

  • Ask your employer to reimburse you for the workshop. Tell them you’re excited to strengthen your writing, speaking, and storytelling skills because this will make you a better leader at work.
  • Ask a family member, friend, or colleague to cover the cost of your ticket. Ask them to invest in you—so that you can take your career to the next level.
  • Ask your community for support. Tell them about your mission and ask numerous people to contribute small amounts so that you can attend the workshop.
  • Think like an entrepreneur. What can you do to earn the money you need—quickly? Start a side hustle? Offer a new service to your clients? Follow up with a previous customer and ask if they’d like to purchase again? 

Find a way. If someone said, “You need to pull together $495 in the next 24 hours…” you could find a way to do it. Do a garage sale and sell items you don’t need. Rent your car on Turo.com. Ask your boss for a bonus. Get a client to pay upfront. There is always a way.

“Am I ready?” is not the right question. Because you will never feel 100% ready for any new experience in life. 

A better question is, “What do I want?” 

  • Do you want to improve your writing and speaking skills? 
  • Do you want to step into a meeting, speak for a few minutes, and have people say “Yes!” to whatever you’re proposing?
  • Do you want more out of your life or career? More visibility, more sales, more support for your mission or cause?
  • Do you want people to come up to you and say, “The story you shared was exactly what I needed to hear. Thank you.”

If that’s what you want, come to this workshop. 

It’s okay if you’re nervous or feel a bit out of place. 99% of the people in the room will feel the same way. Feeling nervous means you’re moving forward in life instead of remaining in the same place.

Please email hello at bwaycollective dot com.  We’ll reply as promptly as possible.
