Marco Robinson Champions the Story-Driven Economy: Transforming Personal Narratives into Global Business Value

As artificial intelligence continues to transform how companies scale, automate, and compete, another movement is quietly gaining momentum. Across business, media, and entrepreneurship, human stories, shared experience, and genuine connection are emerging as powerful economic forces. Few modern entrepreneurs reflect this transition as clearly as Marco Robinson.

With a career spanning global sales, hospitality, consumer brands, film, television, and publishing, Marco Robinson has built a reputation for combining systems, scale, and human behavior. His work increasingly focuses on what many now call the "Story Economy," where lived experience becomes value and community becomes infrastructure. This January, he will bring that vision to Canada with the launch of the first Start Over Business Chapter in Toronto, introducing a franchised, community-based enterprise model.

From High-Performance Sales to Scalable Systems

Early in his career, Marco Robinson played a key role in the international expansion of Tanco Resorts. There, he helped design sales and leadership systems that sold more than 32,000 memberships worldwide, with individual prices ranging from $5,000 to $10,000. The operation generated over $1 billion in global sales, making it one of the most successful large-scale membership models in the resort and lifestyle sector.

That experience shaped his ability to build fast-moving, high-volume ecosystems that could scale across borders without losing cohesion. He later applied the same principles in hospitality, contributing to award-winning restaurant concepts recognised by Tatler , and in consumer goods as a co-founder of NAKED DIABLO Tequila, a premium spirits brand positioned as a global lifestyle product.

Storytelling Beyond Business

Storytelling has also been central to Marco Robinson's work in media and film. He created and hosted Channel 4's prime-time television series Get a House for Free , a show that went beyond awareness by directly helping homeless families secure homes and eliminate mortgages. The programme was widely praised for blending entertainment with measurable social impact.

In film, he is an award-winning producer whose work has reached international audiences. One of his most notable projects, Legacy of Lies , climbed to number two on Netflix in the United States, placing it among the platform's most-watched films at the time of release. His contributions across storytelling, entrepreneurship, and social change led to an invitation from Sir Richard Branson to speak on Necker Island.

From Bestseller to Business Ecosystem

What began as a single book, Start Over: Turn Any Loss Into a Sensational Comeback , quickly evolved into a global movement. Within six months, the Start Over series produced seven number-one bestselling books. Instead of treating this success as a one-off, Robinson applied repeatable systems to publishing, launches, and contributor development.

Authors were supported as business builders, encouraged to transform personal setbacks-such as loss, illness, or failure-into authority and opportunity. As the platform expanded into events, education, and media, it generated over $1 million in revenue in its first year, operating at roughly 25 percent profit.

The Campfire in the Age of Algorithms

The Start Over Business Chapters reflect a broader cultural shift. As AI makes information abundant and expertise easier to replicate, many professionals are experiencing burnout, displacement, and loss of identity. Traditional networking often prioritises transactions, while personal development spaces rarely connect growth to income.

Start Over chapters are designed to bridge that gap. Each chapter functions as a local business ecosystem, blending structured collaboration, entrepreneurial education, and personal development. Often compared to a mix of BNI and Mindvalley, the model places stronger emphasis on inclusion, contribution, and storytelling as economic capital.

Toronto was selected as the Canadian launch city due to its diversity, global reach, and openness to values-driven enterprise. Launching on January 24, 2026, the Toronto chapter will serve as the foundation for expansion across the country.

In a world increasingly shaped by automation, the work of Marco Robinson [https://marcorobinson.com/] highlights a powerful truth: while algorithms may drive efficiency, people, stories, and community will continue to drive meaning-and the next economy may still be built around the campfire.
