Chapter One
Every business has a beginning.
Chapter One is a podcast about how businesses begin: the first idea, the first customer, the first year nobody talks about. Business owners tell the part of the story that never makes it onto the website.
Watch the teaser
You know the business. You don't know the story.
The first look at Chapter One is out now. The full trailer and the first episode arrive January 1, 2027.
Teasers and behind-the-scenes clips are posting on Facebook first, so that is the place to follow along between now and launch.
Follow Storyteller Studios on FacebookWhat Chapter One is about
Every business has a beginning. Most of them never get told.
You see the storefront, the truck, the logo, the website. What you don't see is the night before opening day, the first customer who said yes, the year that almost ended it. Chapter One is where business owners tell that part.
Each conversation starts at the beginning: where the idea came from, what it took to get the doors open, what they wish someone had told them. No pitch, no polish. Just the story behind the business, from the person who lived it.
It's made by Storyteller Studios, a marketing and web design studio in Dickinson, North Dakota that spends every day helping businesses tell their story. This is the show where we let them tell it themselves.
