STORY-DRIVEN COMMUNICATIONS STUDIO

Story-driven communications
for work that matters.

We help you find and untangle the human story inside the mess, and give you a repeatable way to turn it into clear communications that move people to act.

Important work deserves a story people understand.

You may have the interviews, facts, footage, notes and good intentions. But when everything feels equally important, the audience can’t see the story.

If people nod politely but don’t respond, the story isn’t doing its job.

Mighty Maus Media helps organizations, experts and creators find the human truth, decide what matters and turn scattered information into communications that move people to act.

Clarify the story. Move people to act.

Whether you’re raising funds, launching a book, explaining a complex mission or trying to sound more like yourself in public, Mighty Maus Media helps shape the message so the right people understand why it matters.

  • Brand story and messaging
  • Website copy and positioning
  • Donor and fundraising campaigns
  • Author and expert positioning
  • Video, podcast and campaign scripts
  • Email and content strategy
  • PR, media messaging and launch support

When the story gets clear, the next step gets easier.

Still sorting through the mess?

Find the story inside the mess.

Scattered notes, interviews and half-finished drafts can feel like a box of tangled lights. Pulling harder doesn’t help. You need to find the thread and work out how it connects.

The Story Finder System gives us four steps:

1 -Unbox the Mess
Gather the facts, notes, interviews and ideas you already have.


2 - Untangle the Story
Find the person, tension and change that give the story its human center.

3 -Connect the Lights
Organize the story around what your audience needs to understand, feel and do.

4 - Plug It In
Put it to work in a donor appeal, webpage, presentation, video or campaign—and use the process again.
