What is Story First Marketing?

A story is a series of actions in which a sympathetic character confronts and solves a difficult problem while learning a greater lesson. The purpose of a story is to change the audience's internal state from non-interest to adoption of an idea; a story invites the audience to feel, be inspired, and act. 

   

Story First Marketing© engages the audience through an emotion-based story in which a brand, product or point-of-view is integral to the story and its completion. It's a powerful approach that results in superior customer engagement.
