Before my days as a content marketer, I've always loved and appreciated a good story. When you start writing or creating on behalf of a brand, the first thing you have to do is understand the story that they're trying to tell. If there isn't a story yet, that may be where you come in. A brand's story should include details about who they are as a brand, what they do, how what they do helps, and why they do it. In my view, these are the core building blocks for a consistent and powerful brand story.
