Speaking and Communicating Podcast

Your story is waiting to be told!Jude Charles is a filmmaker, author and keynote speaker whose mission is to empower entrepreneurs to leverage the power of storytelling to scale their businesses. He helps entrepreneurs make money by using the power of storytelling.As a kid, Jude remembers his dad loved watching shows like NYPD Blue and Nash Bridges. Years later, Jude realized that these shows taught him about the craft of storytelling. He learned how to search for clues, how to be relentless in solving the puzzle, how to look beneath the surface. They also taught him how powerful the right kind of evidence can be. Nowadays he uses these lessons to help you grow your personal brand.In 2006, while Jude was in high school, a teacher recognized his talent and encouraged him to launch a video production company. She even bought him his first set of business cards 🤯. So with business cards in one hand and a borrowed video camera in the other, he was crazy enough to think he could be an entrepreneur. Even though he had no idea what he was doing, he was willing to bet on himself. Every step of the way, he has defied all odds.As a child of Haitian immigrant parents and the youngest of 10, he could not go to college and had no one to show him the ropes. He struggled to make real money during the first 5 years of his business, to the extent that his car was repossessed twice in 8 months. None of that deterred him on his determination to succeed in creating a visual storytelling business and help entrepreneurs share their stories in order to scale their businesses. Jude has been in business now for 15 years. He digs deep to find the compelling story that no one else knows and then leverage storytelling to strategically scale their business. He has been blessed to produce stories for Google, Coldwell Banker, and Steve Harvey (just to name a few). He has been featured as a speaker on conference stages and on 100+ different podcasts.Keyshia Ka'oir of KA'OIR Cosmetics said this of Jude, "He knew how to ask the right questions, capture all the right moments and craft an amazing story that I can share with the world."Listen as Jude shares:- the impact he has made on successful, familiar public figures- why he insists on vulnerability or nothing- how visual storytelling accelerates your business growth- why customers connect with a vulnerable business owner- why scaling your business is about you then the product- how to go deeper than surface-level storytelling- the challenges he faced on his journey to entrepreneurship- what to do when you feel like giving up- how to maintain self-belief...and so much more!Connect with Jude:WebsiteAdditional Resources:"Dramatic Demonstration" by Jude Charles"Master the Art of Public Speaking and Storytelling" w/ Michael DavisFeel free to reach out on:FacebookInstagramEmail: roberta4sk@gmail.comYouTubeKindly subscribe to our podcast for notifications on future episodes.Leave a rating and a review for the Podcast:iTunesSpotify
