I have finally concluded that; The Futur isn't just designed to be educative but addictive in a good way. I love y'all. You've opened my eyes to a lot in life. You won't understand, but I am grateful.
Hm, interesting! This opens up the question.. what the hell is "education" anyway!?
Absolutely
Sometimes I think, I have to take a break for a month just go through all the 700+ videos of Futur and get clarity and get back to life in a better way. I love the way Chris tells the story, the tone, the flow, the choosing of words, I feel the love of my grandma! Love you Chris!
Thank you 🙏
The story content checklist;
1. Can someone else write this story other than you?
2. Does it make you feel something by reading this?
3. Can you remain indifferent after read this?
4. Does it trigger a physical response?
Likely elicited response to your story:
1. Are you likely to share this?
2. Will you save this and are you likely to take notes?
3. Was there a specific aha-moment?
Content creation that gets leads is what we all aim for. Telling a personal story, using your voice truly separates you from being a robot if you succeed to draw an emotional response! Love this ❤️
I think my problem is I have too many stories and I need to work on organizing them and structuring it . I started learning how to get people engaged because I have so much to offer with life experiences. I don't want to wast what I learned. Thanks for the great motivation and support. I find you an invaluable resource. And for free .. thank you !
100% agreed.
That’s why I created my channel
For organizing an idea that you can come back to, research how to write a creative brief. Write one for each of your ideas. I hope this helps 😀
Formula for Story Telling
1. Tell a story that elicits an emotional response from your audience because that's how they connect with you.
2. Have a clear take-away eg lesson, information, etc. Sum it up. Make it easy for people to take action. Usually all they need is one thing, so call them to action, to do that one thing.
3. Communicate it otherwise no one will do it.
You're a great guy chris, love how you use empathy as a tool to sell things to people, just put people in a semi-emotional state and damn You're rich!
As a Voice Actor, this is definitely going a LONG way for me. Thank you the Futur team. God bless y'all.
I hate it when people within my industry just copy/paste something that I took hours or days to create. Or worse, they take my post, crop/paint my name out and repost it.
What I decided to do was include myself in the story. Then I included quotes, dialogues or photos that I have with people throughout my journey. I even tagged those people after they gave me consent.
I noticed more engagements from my followers. And less people are copy/paste-ing my content now.
Include "human" touch in your story and tell it from a humanity POV. It's will create a huge difference!
Thank you @the Futur this is exactly what I was looking for in the past few days! I appreciate you guys so much!
Love the idea,
"NOT TAKEAWAYS, JUST A TAKEAWAYS"
Thanks The Futur so much!
This is really an intellectual content, being able to tell your story, no one else can tell. I have going up and down on this in my head, thinking how comfortable it will be sharing my story with people to also grow my business, especially being an introvert. Watching this video has cleared my doubt and has motivated to try to take step and walk out of my shell. Really appreciated❤
Dammnnnnnnnnnn, I've never thought about this for my channel. Because I was so caught up in finding a niche, telling my story is awesome but then again puts me in vulnerable position.
Love it. Tell a story that elicits emotional response.
Reminder for a Part 3 and 4 and 5 for this series.
Interesting I try to extract value from everything I read regardless of the elicited feelings. Have been paying more attention to objectively looking at what stories do make me feel something, why and how.
Thanks Do and FUTUR family!!!!
I almost always sit with my notebook when watching your videos
Thanks for being here, I found some music that changed my life in your playlists.
Thank you
I've learned more here on this channel for free than many many classes or courses.
I've relearned all the best bits of my favorite quality's courses I have paid for.
Join us some time Jon.
Damn… you got me… I was writing notes before you got to that last part.
Thank you, Chris. I’m working on preparations for my upcoming speaking engagement this weekend, and this was very useful.
Profound insights here!
Thanks team!🙏
He breathes inspiration
This is gold 💯as always.!!
When is part 3 coming of this series? It would be helpful. I am not a designer but I like the way you explain it and try to draw parallels for my software product business. I am struggling with engaging with my audience in LinkedIn even though I hustled my way to create 10,000 connections in my niche of Sustainability Researchers and Analysts
I’ll remind the team.
The Story Content CHECKLIST:
✅ Can someone else write the story other than you?
✅ Does it make you feel something by reading this?
✅ Can you remain indifferent after reading this?
✅ Does it trigger a physical response?
✅ Are you likely to share this?
✅ Will you save this and are you likely to take note?
✅ Was there a specific aha-moment?
The main purpose: Tell a personal story that elicits an emotional response.
This is very timely! Love the content 🤍🥺💯
Thanks for sharing the checklist! It's very helpful!
Thanks!
this video is worth listing saving& sharing.
Awesome
Your content is like a diamond for me. Thanks and keep going.
Glad you enjoy it!
Love you bro. Spread the light!
Thanks 🙏
Why do I keep watching your videos over and over
this is so great for songwriting as well
Baller.
So good!
When I tell personal stories as a designer, these will be valuable especially for other designers. This will be also valuable for potential clients (that are not designers)?
Gems 💎
This channels helped ignite my passion for content creation!
Glad to hear
Great lesson here Chris, and I like the intro and outro for context. I especially like focusing on 1 single takeaway.
Glad you liked it!
@@thefutur everything yall do is gold. Would love bring Chris onto the show!
When is the part 3 coming ? I am checking daily
Any suggestions for home page first impression content? Thanks for the video
Throughout my career (some 9 years or so) I've accumulated several skillsets that have each defined who I am and what I do. Whilst the discipline is - more or less - same (creative), the dominant skillsets have caused an identity crisis in my professional self, leading me to come to a point where I'm unsure what I should market myself as. To put things in perspective, I graduated with a degree in Graphic Design, majoring in Illustration, working as Content/Copywriter post-graduation, later devising Brand Strategies and Digital Advertising Campaigns, and my heart has always been in Screenwriting, which I have invested a significant amount of time and effort in.
Then there's the imposter syndrome that my mind is fooling myself into thinking I can do all that. How does one deal with a situation like this? What advice would you - or anyone - impart in this regard?
EDIT: Thank you for the amazingly awesome content. I can't imagine my UA-cam playlist without at least half-a-dozen of your videos.
We are all the same. All stories have been written already. All mistakes are taken, all successes are achieved. What is happening happened before, what is coming has already happened in the past. There is nothing new under the sun
0:02 "We're gonna kill two birds with one stone" RRrrraaaaaahhh , complains a cockatoo in the background.... Perfect timing.
Pls link part 1 of this video.
great video and definetly am going to put the checklist into use, wondering if thier is a video like this for brands? since they are not a "person" technically
Treat the company like a person. Give it a voice and personality.
I am a spirituality Counselor, Coach and a Reprogrammer of the subconcious mind. I help people to remove any kind of mental suffering and connect with themselves at their deeper level of spirit and soul. I love what I do. I Dont know what kind of a story I can share that would effect someone to then actually become my client.Any suggestions. thank you for your lovely and impactful videos. I've very recently started watching them.
How do you make things very easy to understand!!...I always have loved your lessons and this single video alone is example of everything you said...
As you talked about your personal comfort level.. after watching this I am thrilled to take action and put something on LinkedIn even if I have to prepare it yet, take away is I already feel like ready to create content 😍😍🥳🥳🎉🎉🎊🎊
Thankyou @Chris Do sir 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Thank you Tanu
Amazing!!! I will be on the PRO group soon (if you aproove me :)
See you soon zeke
Graphic design or medicine? I like both. Please help me.
That’s funny because at the end when he explained it a little bit more I totally understand it
new sub!
What headsets are you wearing my guy, they look super comfortable. 😁👌
Recovering influencer here - this is solid advice but my problem has always been that I feel uncomfortable talking about myself. How do we tell our story without making it come off as an ego trip?
I struggle with this. But until people know your story they don’t often listen to you.
make a video on h ow to deal with rude critcism , negative feedback and that kind of stuff...
as an architecte, do i need to promote my personnal account or my business account, i'm realy struggling there
Second ! ;-)
#53!
Thats probably what David Aaker means with "signature story" .
Any chance you could point us towards a story on Instagram that relates to a photograph? That would be hugely helpful.
Could you please elaborate on basic level of your requirements?
Your query assumes we are somewhat aware of the situation you have.
@@danrazART I am a photographer with an instagram feed. I would love to supplement my photographs with deeper, more meaningful stories. I have written dozens of attempts only to delete them. Can you direct me to any account on instagram that exemplifies what you are teaching? It would be very helpful.
@@georgedisario2799 why would you want to look at any examples?
Real question is "how can you make the photos you post resonate more with your audience especially using addition of text?
I feel you should have a trust in yourself and test your text and photos with your real family and friends first.
Note their reactions.
If you go looking for examples then you will end up with pale imitations.
Secret of success is to hide your influence and own it using your own personal touch.
I mean take things from unrelated sources and make something new.
Spice up your icecream a little!
But you have to stay true to your personal voice.
You can't win without personality.
You have to introduce your recipe to the world and promote your taste.
Coca-Cola is Coca-Cola, always.
So should be your work.
It doesn't mean that you keep doing the same thing.
It means that your work reflects YOU no matter what you do.
Integrity and personality used through smart and creative skills.
Give you an excellent example :
One female artist painted a picture of her drinking tea.
Nothing really especial honestly about the artwork.
But she titled it "me and my cup of tea"
And that added the whole unique personal story.
Watch channel on UA-cam called "her86m"
It's a Vietnamese girl living in Germany.
And
Never be afraid to go outside your comfort zone a little.
You can be lucky and find yourself a pokemon! 😂

What's up squad
Hi Kevin
@@thefutur ayyyyyyy thanks for the content man
i read the manifesto for selling instead of pitching. thank you
I almost don't feel right saying this but the guy at the end the video has something with his way of speaking like he does not put pressure on every word he is saying and that makes it unclear what he is saying at times. Its almost like you need texting when he is speaking. I kinda feel bad for saying this but I think its better that he knows so he can work on this. Pro tip if your english is not that good then slow down your speech and say every word slowly with pressure. Then when it gets better you can speed up again. Don't go rabbit speed when your real level i turtle speed.

Hello! Yes I believe at the 8:09 mark it begins to mention the next episode
When is the part 3 coming?
I think this is it

I wrote 7-8 stories on LinkedIn. I wanted to know where I went wrong.
Part 2? Did I miss part one.
yes. you did. sort videos by date uploaded. you'll see it.
@@thefutur thank you so much I found it. Thanks for the instructive and inspiring videos
Where’s part 3?
No one can tell it like me I've had all the experience personal and non-personal and all I've experienced I could tell you was almost word-for-word and I guarantee you it's not from anyone else's mouth voice it's from my voice my words because I've experienced it and I'm ready to explode and tell my story because personally I think it's a good one but you know what you guys may not think it's a good one and you know it but hey just checked me out cuz I want to explode and tell my story
I want to tell u my voice. My story. And I don't know if its worth ur time. I think I'll get listener's. Its a good book. If I can find the right person

AS A VEGAN, I AM OUTRAGED AT YOUR DOUBLE-BIRD MURDER PROMISE.
Jk... but I know at least somebody thought I sounded like an actual vegan.
What? Haha
the content was great, but the video eddit is was so sloppy compared to before.
Saitama...if he was a designer
I don't know if it is because of my cynicism, but I have heard and read so many fluffy stories (predominately by the Silicon Valley/San Francisco cohorts- *cough* The U.S *cough*). Their stories sound so disingenuous and blatantly fabricated and feeble to a point you know it was an after thought. This is purely anecdotal and my personal judgement. In summary, you cannot *fake it* to non-US audience, they've a strong 'bullsh*t' detector.
Tell the truth.
