Story-time! Well, who doesn't love a good storytelling session? GOOD STORYTELLING and its mystifying nature has never failed to tighten its grasp around the audience and pull them in. It creates narratives full of emotions, experiences and virtues which humans share. And brands know too well to let such a game-changer out of their grip!
Through storytelling, brands can foster emotions, withhold trust and connect with their audience on a far deeper level. It holds the capability to engage the audience with their service or product on an emotional and often a personal level as well. This creates a sense of familiarity and evokes positive emotions in the mind of the audience if carried out well. This increases customer/client engagement with the brand, ultimately resulting in more sales and an elevated brand value and image, both of which are crucially necessary to sustain a brand in the long run.
Narratives related to the product or service in a way that not only captures the reader’s attention but also, creates a bridge for the clients to bond with the brand and essentially gain their trust regarding the product. Stories are known to keep the audience engaged and thus storytelling in branding plays a crucial role in increasing engagement and interactions with the brand and keeping clients involved with them. It helps in building up the much-required connection and affinity. In today’s competitive market, storytelling plays a key role in making the brand stand out amongst others and create a lasting impression in the client's minds.
A great example of effective brand storytelling is Dove’s Real Beauty campaign. Dove showcased real-world stories of different women embracing their beauty thus creating the narrative that beauty is universal. The goal of the campaign was to encourage and promote self-love and acceptance, thus aiming to create a new definition of beauty.
This particular campaign had a lasting impression in the minds of customers who were no different from the stories showcased and created a positive emotional response and connectivity with the brand.
Such campaigns like Dove’s are super effective in creating a much separate brand identity from its competitors. Its creativity and imaginative storytelling fostered positive emotions and above all, it redefined self-care and beauty for what millions of women thought it to be. People in their minds associated Dove with beauty and self-care thus putting Dove way above its several other competitors and providing it with a unique identity of its own.
Customer engagement is probably one of the, if not the biggest, aims for brand storytelling. Authentic narratives that resonate with people tend to stick with the customers and leave them craving for more. People find it much easier to connect and engage with the brand when they find familiar stories or depictions attached with the brands to which they can relate. A positive emotional response is the driving factor behind engagement.
Showing an authentic side to the core brand values beyond the product and services allows for a deeper connection with the clients and increases customer-brand engagement. Authentic real-life stories such as a boxer winning his fight in a championship which goes to inspire us or the awkwardness on a first date which a lot of us can relate to, foster emotions of empathy and build up compassion within ourselves by which we can connect to the brands on a much deeper and transparent level.
Storytelling can also be used to reinforce and address complicated brand messages in much simpler ways for the audience to grasp. This way through their storytelling strategies, brands can target their specific target groups whom they know their message resonates with, and thus extract more engagement from that particular target group.
Heiken is an expert when it comes to directing its brand message through its storytelling. Its target market is men between the ages of 20 and 35. Their ads always depict friends having a good time whilst sharing drinks. A great but simple story like Heiken’s puts the customer in the centre of the brand’s message and helps them realise that both the brand and the customer are working towards the same goal.
This shared purpose plucks an emotional chord in the minds of the customer and gives them an incentive to stick with their brand long-term.
Storytelling is a key domain in Branding and creating a positive brand image and above all, establishing a deep-rooted connection with customers. it establishes a sense of loyalty, trustworthiness, and emotional connection with consumers by showcasing familiar, inspiring and authentic stories.
It requires a substantial amount of creativity and a clear brand recognition to formulate one in accordance with the brand message and values. Through Storytelling, a brand has the opportunity to let the consumer dive deeper into what a brand holds within much beyond its services and products.
