Learn directly from Say Less to Say More with Larry Smith

Larry is the Pappy Van Winkle of communications: smooth, strong, and distilled down to what matters. For anyone who overthinks or struggles to kill their darlings, spend an hour with Larry. You'll leave with a clean pour.

Learned a lot in a short amount of time! I've been puzzling over how to distill my personal brand for months and I got the most clarity during this session.

Stories power my own work every single day, and even as a seasoned brand story strategist, journalist, and author, I walked away with new tools, fresh clarity, and practical frameworks I can use right now. Larry’s class was a concentrated, high-impact experience that sharpened both what I say and how I say it. In just 90 minutes, Larry distills storytelling into a set of frameworks that bring real structure to what so often feels intuitive but ungraspable. What sets this course apart is the balance of heart and craft: it’s about reshaping how you think about narrative itself. Larry demonstrates how stories shape clarity, influence, and human connection in any context, from executive updates to everyday conversations. Whether you teach, lead, write, pitch, or just want to make your ideas land with more force and precision, this course delivers. I’d recommend it to anyone who feels like they should know how to tell a story better, and particularly to those who know how foundational narrative is to influence and impact in work and life.

Larry puts forward a simple yet incredibly powerful storytelling framework, one you carry with you for the rest of your career. What makes this course unique is that the techniques are as much about understanding where our stories come from as they are about learning to tell them well.

Larry Smith is a master storyteller. It was great to have him in a small-group setting for 90 minutes to help us improve our individual storytelling skills. Larry helped us focus on what really matters in our personal stories and on how to convey that information with clarity. Larry also took the time to network the class members with one another at the beginning of the class, which was a nice touch. I highly recommend this class and Larry Smith as a course leader.
