#11: Monitoring the Health of Your Story

Learn how to test the health of your stories from one of the top online storytelling monitoring systems in the world.

How do you imagine a story becomes popular? A narrative never emerges from the hands of a publisher as an instant success. They start with a couple views from whatever media outlet they’re presented on and are only relayed through simple means, such as word of mouth or social media until they snowball into tremendous successful publications with millions and millions of views. Depending on the story, this can be great for a company… or devastating!
