Once upon a time, marketers and communicators found themselves inundated with content requests. Blog posts, white papers, press releases, campaign copy – words swirled and twisted around them without purpose or direction. Content was King, but content without strategy was destined to fail. This session is designed to support overwhelmed content producers by taking them back to the basics of storytelling. Learn how to apply elements of narrative structure, characterization, tension, motive and more to your brand communications, with an eye toward creating a cohesive story that resonates with your target audiences.

Natalie Jackson of Emfluence will speak on “Once Upon a Time, a Marketer Told an Amazing Brand Story.”
