Build Online Trust Fast Through Storytelling
Let’s get real—if you’ve already built a strong reputation for your business offline, then you’ve done a great job. People know you. Your shop is popular, your friends and family sing your praises, and your community respects you. That’s no small feat.
But when it comes to showing up online, it's a different story.
You create a Phisk, Instagram, Facebook page and start posting pictures of your products. Yet...crickets. No comments, no DMs, no sales. It’s like no one sees you.
And you’re wondering—what’s going on?
Here’s the hard truth: the internet doesn’t care how big you are offline. Online, you're just another name—unless you give people a reason to care.
Want to know the secret to changing that? Start telling your story.
Yes, storytelling. It’s one of the most powerful tools you can use to build trust quickly online, even if you’re not great at marketing.
Here’s what it looks like in action:
Say you sell crayfish. Instead of only posting product photos, try sharing behind-the-scenes moments:
* Show how and where you buy your crayfish.
* Take us through the sorting and packaging process.
* Introduce the people who work with you.
* Post feedback from real customers.
* Show what your customers are cooking with your crayfish.
* Share your journey—why you started this business in the first place.
Each of these stories adds depth. It makes people feel connected. It makes them trust you. Suddenly, you’re not just another vendor—you’re “that crayfish woman” everyone follows and trusts. You become a mini-celebrity in your niche.
And no, storytelling doesn’t mean giving away trade secrets. It just means being real, being smart, and letting people in.
If marketing overwhelms you, start small. Start by telling stories. It's simple, relatable, and incredibly effective.
As people begin to engage, your reach grows. More eyes on your business. More people in your DMs. More sales. And soon, you’re not just surviving online—you’re dominating.
