What is the best way I can improve my story telling skills?

Here are the four ways -
1. Keep it Real
If you are anything like me, then you probably have at least 2,000 pieces of spam mail waiting to be opened. The taglines always catch me. “Suzie just made $50,000 in ten minutes and you can too.”
Obviously, Suzie is full of garbage. However, at least one person believed her story and was convinced to do something that wasn’t beneficial. Even Writer’s Digest agrees that lying to your audience or making something sound unbelievable discredits you as a writer. As a general rule of thumb, read your work out loud. If you have a hard time believing what you wrote, then try again.
When copywriting for a business or consumer-based audience, be careful not to allow storytelling elements to take over. Storytelling should complement the copy and give it added appeal, not define it as fiction.
2. Adaptation is Key
Think about the four seasons of the year. During each one, we have to adapt to the weather by wearing warmer clothes or adjusting the thermostat. Think of each piece of copy as a new season. You won’t write a landing page the same way you write a sales pitch. The story on the page should be compelling, but also, fit the niche in which the writing takes place.
3. Complete a Practice Run
Practice, practice, practice. It doesn’t make us perfect; however, it does make us better. This doesn’t stop at just writing. It also means reading, talking, creating dialogue, learning other words, exploring the thesaurus, and developing a style. Practicing your writing skills means that you continuously work to improve both your strengths and weaknesses.
4. Be the Original Cookie
I love cookies. There was one time that I was in the mood for some, but low on cash, so I went to the store and bought the cheapest bag they had. I was expecting deliciousness but instead spent the night mad due to wasting money on cookies that tasted like chocolate cardboard crackers. They even smelled odd.
Don’t be the knock off cookie! Your voice and your style of storytelling should be different and hard to duplicate.
As a copywriter, sometimes that notion is difficult. However, this is where your ability to adapt swoops in to save you from being like everyone else. Not all of my clients find my style of writing fits their motif, and that’s okay. We can’t always have the freedom to infuse our sense of style into someone else’s brand. When we show our clients that we can bend for the sake of producing what they need, they are sure to keep us around.
