Jab, Jab, Jab, Right Hook: How to Tell Your Story in a Noisy Social World
Win customers with native, mobile‑first stories that earn the ask
About This Book
In a world where your audience scrolls at thumb‑speed, throwing louder ads won’t win. Learn how to earn attention with small, generous moments—jabs—that make people laugh, learn, and feel seen, so your well‑timed ask—the right hook—actually lands. You’ll discover how to tailor messages to each platform’s native language, craft micro‑content that rides pop culture without feeling cringey, and design mobile‑first calls to action that convert. With relatable stories—from neighborhood cafés to student clubs—you’ll see how data, empathy, and relentless iteration turn casual scrollers into loyal customers and fans. This is a practical playbook for marketers, founders, and creators who want results without burning goodwill.About the Author

His work blends storytelling, data, and culture to build brands people actually care about. When he’s not pushing teams to ship, he’s mentoring creators and small business owners to bet on their strengths.
