Stop losing opportunities to mixed messages—align your entire team in 90 minutes.

When everyone tells a different story about your organization, you lose credibility, confuse prospects, and miss opportunities. Our live virtual workshop is based on the classic Message House method and gets up to 300 people speaking with one powerful voice.

Message House Method Visual Framework

The Classic Message House Method

Developed over decades of communications work, the Message House is a visual framework that organizes your key messages into a simple, memorable structure. Like a house, it has a foundation (your core value proposition), supporting pillars (your key proof points), and a roof (your overarching theme). This visual metaphor transforms abstract messaging discipline into something concrete and unforgettable.

When you tell team members to "stay inside the Message House," they instantly understand and remember the boundaries. The metaphor makes messaging discipline intuitive and lasting.
