Tolstoy - Helping Businesses Tell Better Stories

The Story of a Brand

**This episode is brought to you by MuteSix, Repeat, and CartText**

“Help businesses tell better stories,” this is the idea behind Tolstoy. Today we have Dov Kaufmann, Co-Founder, and CEO of Tolstoy, a customer video engagement platform.

Dov always wanted to start a company. He studied English literature, so he tried to be an author and even a filmmaker, but he failed miserably in both. Eventually, he launched Tolstoy, which helps brands, retailers connect with their visitors and customers over video. According to Dov, you should keep moving, optimizing, and not let anything stop you.

In the first half, he talks about:

* Gratefulness * Overview of the company * What pushed him * Did writing and filmmaking skills help him * Suggestions for businesses

Join Ramon Vela and Dov Kaufmann as they break down the inside story on The Story of a Brand.
