Intro to storytelling 3 - When Do Startups Need Storytelling
Storytelling is important for startups at early and later stages. In the early stage, it helps visualize the core user, mission, uniqueness, and align the founder(s).

Effective storytelling for startups can begin with pitching the idea and be used to share stories about products, milestones, events, hiring, and more.

The document contains reviews and comments from multiple customers describing their negative experiences shopping at Kohl's stores. Many customers observed messy stores with disorganized merchandise, understaffed and poorly trained employees, and an overall poor shopping experience.

Kohl's corporate responses focused on their commitment to customer satisfaction but did not address the specific complaints.
Intro to storytelling 2 - What Is Storytelling
Storytelling involves crafting narratives using universal myths and archetypes to appeal to audiences emotionally rather than rationally. An effective story features an unsatisfied hero on a quest, guided by an inspiring mentor who helps overcome challenges. The goal is to trigger audiences' imagination by positioning them as the hero seeking resolution to fears or hopes addressed by the brand's mission.

Steve Yastrow Subway Franchisee Conference 7 22 08
The document discusses creating profitable customer relationships for Subway stores through brand harmony. It notes that customers' beliefs about a brand and their actions like visiting frequently, spending more per visit, and promoting the brand positively impact profits. However, the "customer action gap" is the percentage of customers not taking these actions as much as they could. The document advocates blending all customer interactions to create a coherent brand story and experience through "brand harmony" rather than using brute force. It also stresses the importance of employee beliefs and actions in enriching the brand from within through "brand habits". Building customer relationships in which customers think of the business and themselves together is key, with every interaction either improving, maintaining, or hurting the relationship.

The overall message is that brands should empower their audience and address them directly rather than talking at them.

Be one of the brave
Only 56% of B2B marketers feel that they have a differentiated story, or value to deliver. Rather than blindly follow others, we challenge you to be one of the brave, and reap the benefits of being different: stronger relationships, and more customers. Oh yeah. To the brave go the spoils.
The slow death of creativity in b2b
The document discusses the slow death of creativity in marketing, particularly for B2B. It argues that marketing has become too focused on quantitative results and data analysis at the expense of human insights and creativity. This has caused agencies to lose their purpose and audiences to tune out. The document calls for agencies to return to prioritizing creativity and radical ideas that can emotionally connect with people over simply wanting to "capture" audiences. Only this approach will help brands engage audiences and revive the industry.
Adam Hanft: Branding
This document discusses key concepts for building an effective brand through positioning and differentiation. It emphasizes that brands need to start with identifying a unique territory in the market and claiming it through naming and messaging that cannot be replicated by others. The document also stresses that brands benefit from having identifiable origins and archetypes that give them folkloric meaning. Finally, it suggests adopting a "broken window theory of branding" to maintain a brand through constant attention.

By Kevin Henrikson Partner Group Engineering Manager, Microsoft
Accelerated growth and agile marketing tactics aren't just for startups. Kevin will review examples and how-tos on startup techniques that he's deployed successfully with enterprise level marketing teams, focusing on funnel improvement and paid advertising.Lecture on Innovation at Startups at ESADE
1) Michael Wolfe discusses how he and his co-founders validated the idea for their B2B startup that developed data loss prevention software. They conducted customer interviews to understand problems and gain feedback on prototypes, learning that large regulated companies cared most about preventing loss of consumer data.
2) Based on this validation, they focused their minimum viable product on blocking outbound email of consumer data for large customers. Their first customer was Bank of America.
3) The startup continued learning customer needs through further development and interviews. This allowed them to expand their product capabilities and customer base, growing revenue from $500K to $50M in just a few years before potentially exiting.

Brands + Startups = Innovation
Consumer brands need to work with startups to innovate their marketing approaches or risk becoming obsolete. There are five key reasons why partnering with startups benefits large consumer packaged goods companies: 1) Startups have historically been the main drivers of innovation; 2) Partnering allows companies to take on low risks by testing new ideas; 3) Startups provide diversity of ideas that companies could not generate internally; 4) Partnering allows companies to be first movers adopting new technologies; 5) Startup culture fosters innovation that large companies can learn from. The presentation provides examples of startup partnerships through case studies.

Rob Dreblow, WFA: How can brands and start-ups make collaboration more effect...ad:tech London, MMS & iMedia
Most brands struggle to work effectively with startups due to a lack of clarity and defined processes. Surveys of brands and startups found the biggest barriers to be a lack of speed within brands, complicated procurement processes, and extended payment terms for brands, while startups struggle with understanding brand needs and scaling solutions. Both agree that establishing clear objectives, common goals and metrics, as well as well-defined processes and timelines would improve outcomes. Startups are advised to focus on their core strengths and understanding brand objectives, while brands should embrace risk and define roles to avoid duplication when working with startups.Foursquare's 1st Pitch Deck

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying Them
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs
