Good marketing uses the
  products to help tell a story.

Bad marketing tells stories about
          products.

          - Simon Sinek
Define Your Story
We help X do Y doing Z
A DIGITAL PRESENCE IS JUST A WAY OF LIFE
We are competing for the moment.
 We are competing for the future.
 We are competing for relevance.
                                - Brian Solis
Own your Story
Companies can never be sure
about the final stories circulating
  in the market. Hence, telling
    authentic stories in the
    beginning is always best.
    - Philip Kotler, “Marketing 3.0”
“There's an argument for transparency….The
market, though, often seeks out the translucent.




              Things that GLOW. ”

                    – Seth Godin
Write One, Run Everywhere
“Marketing is not a battle of
         products,
     It is a battle of
      perceptions”
         - Ries & Trout
“Strategy without
tactics is the slowest
    route to victory.
    Tactics without
 strategy is the noise
     before defeat.”
       – Sun Tzu
Evolve your Story
When you make a decision, it results in an
action. And the accumulation of those decisions
 and actions become how people describe you
                and think of you.

     It becomes your
          “story”
     - Jeanne Bliss, “I Love You More
              Than My Dog”
Is this good?
