The elements of a convincing marketing story

A good marketing story requires careful planning and a clear structure. Important elements of a convincing marketing story are, of course, characters that the target group can identify with, a conflict that needs to be resolved, a suspenseful arc and a convincing plot.

We use storytelling in many customer projects on a conceptual and strategic level as well as in individual campaigns.

The story was launched under the title "Too Young to Feed the Birds", went viral and found its way into national media titles such as Blick, 20Minuten and Migros-Magazin.
