Story-driven Marketing and “More Than A Jacket”

I can’t think of a single company I’ve worked with over the past 24 years that couldn’t describe their product or service as it relates to the people that use those products and services.

Watch this 60 second video that does it perfectly: “More than a jacket” which is getting press for it’s “Story-driven” marketing approach.

I was just talking with my son who is studying Apple as part of his INCubator class and we discussed the Think Different campaign from 1997.

A Story-Driven Marketing Exercise

Write a 60 second narration of how you would tell the story of something you sell — not about the product, but it’s effect on the perfect customer. By perfect I mean someone who loves what you provided.

Below is my attempt at such an exercise around marketing. What do you think?

We’ve never had so much power

Growing our tiny business into something great
Making our community better
Making our customers better

All because of these amazing marketing tools
