Marketing has been given a bad name… too many bad apples have given people the wrong idea. When in truth, marketing is an important part of any successful business growth.

Confusing buzzwords, pointless metrics, terrible communication & uncertainty on your return.

We get it... every day we speak to people who are simply fed up with the outdated agency model.

Marketing should be simple, it should give you the confidence to grow your business, without the worry that you're wasting your precious time and money.

We deliver this confidence to our clients in two core areas…

1) Open communication & collaboration

Whether you're looking for a website that shows you in your best light and brings you consistent leads, or launching an ad campaign to generate new revenue, we make it our responsibility to understand your business goals and look at the bigger picture so we can work towards the right solution.

Our objective is never to “say yes” for the sake of a sale. In fact, if we’re not confident that we can help you, or that the service is a good fit, we’ll be forward with that and guide you towards what is.

2) Transparency

The biggest reason why our clients work with us for so long is because we keep them in the loop, acting as a partner to their business. We make it crystal clear what’s working and what’s not, and work with you to improve both.

As a result, we have unmatched retention - We’ve even won an award for consistently driving exceptional client results, just like the ones below:

- £180k worth of qualified pipeline in just 60 days for a private clinic
- 7.8x return on ad spend for a local injury centre
- 68 sign-ups direct from their website in 5 weeks for a local gym

Here’s what our clients have to say:

“Super proactive with amazing attention to detail... I have 100% trust in Attention Digital and would definitely recommend.”

“Put simply, Attention Digital was 10/10… Everything was transparent, professional and clearly communicated.”

"We were really impressed with their professionalism, creativity, and attention to detail... I would highly recommend Attention Digital to anyone looking for a web design and consultancy company."

After having a baby, I knew it was time to build my own freelance business. Here's what I did for a handful of amazing companies over the course of four years:

• Researched, wrote and edited strategic SEO-rich content for startups looking to grow brand awareness and engage with new audiences. Clients included Amy's Organic, Bi-Rite Market, Tonal, Ziraffe Store, and Kettle & Fire. 
• Managed a team of freelance and contract writers on behalf of clients. Heavily edited some pretty bad content. 
• Researched and reported stories on a variety of topics within the hospitality, retail and nonprofit industries. Stories appeared in the San Francisco Chronicle, San Francisco Business Times, Marin Magazine, SF Weekly, Zagat and the SF Bay Guardian.
• Founded a successful a food blog—www.laurelstreetkitchen.com—and gained a 10K following on IG, which quickly became tiring and lame.

Editor

The curious content marketer who cares ✨ Partnering with purpose-led small businesses, startups, and entrepreneurs to connect through storytelling and collaboration.

My ability to spot a good story is what landed me my first job in journalism. But it was my decade of profiling startups, small businesses, nonprofits and some of San Francisco’s most influential people that taught me how to tell one. 

A move into marketing and another decade dabbling in the creator economy—first with a food blog, then a motherhood magazine—taught me how to use those stories to build communities through content and collaborations.  

Now, my mission is to help purpose-driven people and brands build loyal audiences who don't just want what you offer, but love what you stand for.  

Founders and business owners come to me when they need a strategic storyteller and networked creator. 

The results?

1. A clear brand narrative.
2. A simple, sustainable plan and process for consistently sharing that narrative through content across all channels. 
3. A bank of differentiated ideas pulled from stories and experiences to use everywhere. 
4. A shorter sales cycle. 
5. A community of collaborators.
6. An overall less time-consuming (and more enjoyable) way to do content marketing. 

In short: I help you figure out what you need to say and where you need to say it to develop your brand, find a community of collaborators, and connect with the right people.

Because with so much noise and competition, we all need a reason to care—we need to feel a connection. 

If you can do that, not only will you stand out, you will find exactly where you fit in.

I’m certain I’ll lose a few of you over this, but I have a confession. About once a year, around this time or in the spring, I consult my psychic. 

Her name is Robyn, and I’ve been talking to her for over a decade. 

Robyn has told me things I can’t explain. She predicted with spectacular accuracy the end of my marriage, the exact day my second child would be born, the place and time I’d buy my first house, and the personality and profession of my current partner. She even named my mom’s weird left foot issue before my mom mentioned it to me.  

And yes, these insights make me feel like I have an ounce of control over what’s coming. But that’s not why I call her.

The times I feel compelled to talk to Robyn are when I’m standing at a crossroads—some turning point in my life or career where I need to make a big decision. One where I already feel the answer in my gut and have accepted the consequences, but am afraid to make the wrong choice.

What I’m really looking for, I now realize, isn’t a prediction. 
It’s permission.

It’s confidence that the answer I want is the one I’ve already decided is best with the information I have.

The funny thing is that when Robyn affirms what I already believe, I go for it without a doubt. And when she doesn’t, I feel even more sure that my instinct is right anyway, despite what she sees in her crystal ball.

I mention this because I think we’re all just looking for permission when we seek advice from anyone. 

Whether it’s a coach, a therapist, a peer, a trusted partner, or successful people who’ve accomplished the things we’re striving for, we’re looking for the confidence to make our move. Or validation that our bet will pay off because it’s paid off for someone else. 

But the truth is that no one can predict the outcome of your choices for you. No one can give you advice that will work for you in the same way it worked for them. 

What we can do is ask questions of each other (and ourselves) that help us figure out what we really want and what consequences we're willing to put up with.

It’s why I’ve built spaces like my retreat and my storytelling community. It’s why I ask more questions than give advice in my newsletter. 

The goal is to give you room to listen to yourself. To pause and reflect. To get out of your head so you can feel confident shaping the story.

So that even if you consult a psychic—or anyone—you’re not waiting for their blessing because you’re already grounded in your own.

They tell you to tell your story. I show you how. 🧡 Brand storytelling & strategy for any type of content. Ask about my Short-Form Storytelling Workshop for your community, team or organization.

My seven-year-old learned two opposing views of Thanksgiving at school yesterday, and it gives me hope for the future.

Some people, she told me, view Thanksgiving as an opportunity to practice gratitude and celebrate togetherness.

Other people observe it as a day of mourning for the land that was stolen. They see it as a necessary day to protest ongoing oppression. 

I told her that when I was in second grade, I was cutting out paper turkeys on construction paper. 

Then I asked her how she sees Thanksgiving. 

“I guess both can be right,” she said. “It’s just good to understand all perspectives.”

Why can’t adults be this civilized?

They tell you to tell your story. I show you how. 🧡 Brand storytelling & content strategy for creators, founders, solos & startup teams. Ask about my Short-Form Storytelling Workshop for your community or organization.

In case you need to hear it today: You can build a fully inbound business without relying on social media. 

I have. And it’s what saves me from feeling like I’m at the mercy of every algorithm change or posting when I’d rather be offline doing the deeper work or engaging with humans in the real world.

While it's true that showing up on social keeps you visible and helps you stay connected with your online community, I've found that investing my time in other activities pays off even more for getting better quality inbound leads. 

They include:
-Podcast appearances where I can just be myself
-Newsletters where I can speak directly to an audience that takes immediate action
-Blogs and other discovery platforms where I repurpose my work
-Guest teaching in communities that house my ideal audience
-Speaking at local live events to build authority
-In-person networking that creates immediate trust
-Referral partners who cross-promote
-Keeping up with past clients who already know, like, and trust me

Some of these bring leads in a day, while some take seasons. But all of them compound.

Social media can be a great discovery platform, but it’s just one place to tell your story. And it's not worth spending all your time here.

So if you need permission to post a couple of times per week while you focus on other high-impact marketing things, here you go. Permission granted. 

Where else can you tell your story that I missed?

My kid with a bad cold, miserable and sobbing because she can't sleep: "Can you give me anything to make it better?"

Me: "Unfortunately, there is no cure for the common cold."

Her: "So they're making robots to replace us, but they haven't invented anything that could solve my actual problems?"

Me: "Sam Altman works in mysterious ways."

I had big, ambitious plans for hitting my goals today. I even woke up with the bros and did one of those 6 a.m. workouts before most people brushed their teeth (never again). But then...

An earthquake led to a water main break at my kid's school, and now they're home all day. 

Life, like kids, doesn't care how many meetings you had planned. 'Tis the season for rolling with it.

Creating content for social media means experiencing every possible emotion about the same post.

Writing it: Genius.
Posting it: Meh.
5 minutes later: Why did I do this?
First comment: Oh thank god.
Analytics: What even is engagement?
24 hours later: We go again.

My 7-year-old just admitted that she doesn’t actually like Christmas very much. 

The day itself is disappointing, she said. There’s just too much buildup and pressure on one day to be special. 

But what she does love are all the rituals leading up to Christmas, like decorating the tree, hunting for the perfect gifts, wrapping presents, and counting down the days on her advent calendar. 

“That’s interesting,” I said after she made her proclamation this morning. “Where’d you hear that?”

“I didn’t hear it anywhere,” she responded. “I just feel that way.”

What she doesn’t realize is that I said those exact words last year after we all had a depressing and disenchanted Christmas Day. 

I tried to make the girls feel better by saying it’s not about Christmas, it’s about all the fun we had preparing and participating in a holiday that, for our family, is about giving and being present together.

So she heard those words, internalized my perspective, and this year made it her own—all without even realizing it.

It made me think about all the opinions, experiences, and perspectives that we all internalize throughout our lives. The stories that other people tell us that become part of our own.

We carry these stories into adulthood, where they shape our worldview and approach to relationships, work, and ourselves. 

Sometimes these stories serve us. But sometimes they don’t.

And the only way to really understand what stories you’re telling yourself that are yours (and still serve you) or someone else’s is to unpack them alongside people you trust and respect.

Examining the stories we tell ourselves from a new lens is just one of the things we do at our New Narratives Club retreats. But it might just be the most transformative. 

If you’re curious about joining the retreat and want a taste of what to expect, we’re hosting a sort of “open house” next week with past and returning attendees. It's for any entrepreneur who wants to make sure the script you're writing for the next chapter of your business is entirely your own. 

Come to listen, ask questions, and—if you’re ready to dive right in—sign up for a hot seat where you’ll have the group’s attention and brilliant minds on your most pressing question or current struggle in business. (I'll drop the signup in the comments.)

And, if you're feeling brave, share a story you've been telling yourself that you're starting to question as your own.

As for my daughter's thoughts on Christmas? Well, all I can do is teach her to keep questioning and exploring how she really feels.

Now here's one of the best examples of someone using their story to stand out and sell their services. 

I spotted this flyer at my coworking space this morning. Unlike the dozens of other flyers on the bulletin board listing facts and features, this one had a story that kept me reading all the way down.

It has everything a good story should have:

Stakes.
Tension.
Conflict.
Resolution. 
An unexpected twist! 
Humor. (Lots of humor.)

In two short paragraphs, Courtney demonstrates her values, explains how she helps, answers all of my questions, and—most importantly—makes me care.

Even if I wasn't looking for a private chef, I'm considering hiring this one now. 

Or maybe I should ask her to be my marketing intern? Because this girl's got skills.

Unless you’ve already cracked the code with tons of engagement and a waitlist full of dream clients, I guarantee you’re either too expert or too elite.

And until you figure out your primary archetype and make some adjustments to position yourself somewhere in the middle, no amount of storytelling will get you both the reach and resonance you might be after.

According to Rob Henderson (who first introduced me to this framework), experts are people who know things, like specialists, beat reporters, or engineers. It's anyone whose credibility comes from technical competence.

Experts tend to be detail-oriented and cautious, and focused more on what’s right than on who’s listening.

Their biggest problem is that they lack reach.

Their work is only as influential as the number of people who understand it, and they tend to talk within their field instead of to the public.

Elites, on the other hand, are people “who move things,” and their mission is to influence people to act.

These are your politicians, executives, media personalities, and influencers. They’re the big-picture thinkers and persuasive communicators who can rally people around a shared goal and tend to shape culture.

But because they depend on status and consensus without any poof to back up their ideas, their problem is that we don’t trust them to deliver.

Here’s why it matters: The people we tend to trust, follow, and hire are often performing both roles at once.

And while it’s a spectrum, most of us tend to lean toward one archetype or the other.

I work with lots of experts who are credible and experienced but virtually invisible. People respect them, but their ideal clients don’t know they exist because their reach is usually limited to other experts.

On the other end, I have plenty of peers who are elites. They're popular and get tons of engagement, but have no real influence that leads to meaningful business outcomes. Without proof that what they’re selling works, we don’t trust them enough to take action.

The bottom line is that to build a brand online (or anywhere), you need to be both right and resonant.

You need to tell stories that inspire and demonstrate your expertise.

You need to build a body of work that not only proves you know something worth hearing, but also communicates it in a way worth spreading.

When I first started building my brand online, I went all in on expertise and managed to capture the attention of peers who respected me, but weren’t buying what I was selling.

Then I swung in the opposite direction (my true nature) with big ideas that got tons of reach, but failed to show the concrete steps or tactical application to help my ideal client understand my process or see proof that it worked.

When I finally understood my primary archetype and shifted to land somewhere in the middle, both my content and my inbound took off.

That's where I am now. My content generates lots of likes and brings in plenty of business.

Where are you?

A question (for science): You've been given the chance to travel into the future to see how the world will change over the next 50 years. What change are you most interested in?
