SHOW NOTES:
In this practical, high-energy episode, Matt Zaun talks with Sean Garner, StoryBrand–certified marketer and founder of Sean Garner Consulting, about cutting through today’s 10,000-messages-a-day noise with a simple idea: clarity beats clever. They break down how to build messaging that wins attention, creates qualified demand, and turns “we do X” into “we solve your problem.”
In this episode, they cover:
✅ The StoryBrand core — 7 talking points that become your “verbal brand guidelines” for every email, website, and pitch.
✅ Consistency that compounds — Be relentlessly consistent about the problem you solve, not the services you sell.

...and much more!
