Making Minimal Meaningful

More now than ever —
in a world overwhelmed with
message — less is more.

Simplicity, speaks., connects., respects.

As life is unimaginably
complex, ideas and solutions

must be unambiguously clear.

Not to mention, honest,
informed, and inspiring.

Whats necessary now is
a style of writing built on the
understanding that brevity

is both art, and advantage.

All of which begins with
one unignorable expression
that establishes relevance
and reimagines significance.

Bold. Words. Rule.

Beyond headlines and taglines, a bloodline.
Wisdom holds that the most powerful brand communication
is built on one perfect expression.
I call it Your It. And here’s how I’ll build yours.

Your It, Rob Kell Grail graphic
Me, You & Your It, headline

Up front—I’m not moved by
maybe writing a game changer.

My goal for you is game over.

And it begins with the one line
built to define your meaning and
confidently become your mantra.

Bold words — predictably —
as this is the obsession that

my brain has chosen for itself.

Equal parts methodical,
lyrical, and shamelessly simple.

All of which is the result of,
not-so-ironically, bloodlines —
my mentor was Ken Segall,
who named the iMac and wrote
Here’s To The Crazy Ones.

With gratitude, I’m lucky to
have learned from the best ever.

Which leads me to you,
and Your It — the yet to be written
words that’ll define, differentiate,
and articulate the increasingly
imaginative future of your brand.

My process? It’s curious:

The 3 phases of It: originate, articulate, resonate

It’s the questions that become the solutions.
In no particular order —
what if, why not, and could it really be that simple?
Reaching understanding is a crazy trip —
from unrelenting curiosity to unmistakable clarity.
Nice to know someone has it all mapped out.

Welcome to my left brain.
One might imagine it empty, but it finds beauty
abundant in detail, order, and efficiency.
More importantly, it understands my right brain,
and the precise amount of time needed
to deliver — true to its promise — originality.

Clarity and simplicity, the biological parents of longevity

You’ve discovered the fountain of relevance.
One little phrase, both endearing and enduring,
designed to clear your path of competitors.
Minimalism meets Darwinism.
Survival of the focused.

It’s what you get when wisdom, optimism, and originality
all share the same sentence.

Immediology®

As your brand has but 9 seconds
to be recognized as relevant,
I am a devotee of my own trademark.
Immediology® acknowledges brevity —
the stylistic DNA of WordBook —
as a brand asset.

We are an increasingly visual culture,
even verbally.
As such, your WordBook is guided by
a conversational aesthetic, otherwise known as
making minimal meaningful.

Not unlike every other brand writer,
I listen, I learn, I absorb.
