About Us

Each of us spent two decades crafting persuasive messages that sold big ideas and groundbreaking products. Douglass as a speechwriter; Lisa-Marie as an account development manager and a top-producing sales professional.

Highlights for Douglass included: (1) writing a speech that received a rare standing ovation from the U.S. Senate—as well as (2) boosting the visibility of a global payments CEO on stages such as Davos and in publications such as the Harvard Business Review. Highlights for Lisa-Marie included improving profitability of corporate T&E accounts with combined annual revenues of $1 billion+ as well as attaining a top 5% national sales ranking in a challenging cardiovascular product market.

Storytelling Coaches Douglass and Lisa-Marie Hatcher

But the summer of 2017 was a turning point for us. We decided to answer a call bigger than ourselves—bigger than the jobs we had done before. We decided to spend every working hour, helping businesspeople like you—craft your own persuasive messages that sell your own big ideas and groundbreaking products.
