60 Seconds to Better Brand Storytelling

Welcome to 60 Seconds to Better Brand Storytelling, a production of Active Imagination Healthcare and Sports Marketing. This frequent e-communication will help you learn to tell the story of your brand better—and we’ll aim for you to be able to digest each installment in 60 seconds or less.


 

Here’s an example:

Dave Purdon, a young IT technician, arrived one morning at a client’s location to find shattered glass, crumbled sheetrock, and office furniture destroyed beyond identification. Overnight a truck had veered off the nearby highway, making a direct impact on the client’s building. The server room, located near an exterior wall, now housed a pickup truck. And while Dave would normally have been able to rely on the client’s backups to restore his client’s critical business information, the fire safe was stored in the same room, and the accident left only dust where tape backups used to be stored. It was this moment that Dave realized the value of off-site backups, and it was the moment that the concept of Back-upLynx was born


What are you thinking right now? Are you thinking about your own backup system (or lack thereof?) That’s what this story is designed to do. And it’s working for IT Xpress, a Nashville-based business outsourcing company who developed a proprietary off-site backup system. (They’re also our client, and a sponsor of the Nashville Predators).


In the next issue, we’ll talk about WHY stories are so effective in branding. There’s thousands of years of history behind this technique, so why is it often such a challenge for organizations to actually implement it and see its benefits? Until next time…
