It taps into a primal human need to be both emotionally entertained and mentally informed, but you don\u2019t need to be a screenwriter to know that. We all use stories in our everyday lives \u2013 to relate experiences, tell jokes, or teach others \u2013 so it makes sense that storytelling would be an essential part of doing business, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The term \u201cstorytelling\u201d, as it relates to brands, has become somewhat of a buzzword lately, however it\u2019s not a particularly new idea. After all, companies like Coca Cola, Ford, Wells Fargo and others have been wildly successful for a hundred years or more partly because of their marketing strategies. What&nbsp;<em>is<\/em>&nbsp;new in the world of&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.smh.com.au\/business\/workplace-relations\/why-storytelling-is-the-new-narrative-in-corporate-communication-20170206-gu6gse.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">corporate storytelling<\/a>, though, is the audience and the kinds of communication that are needed to reach them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Selling is not enough<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>From the early days of marketing, advertisers realised that it wasn\u2019t enough to just tout the features of a product or service \u2013 you needed to make your audience feel the benefits. Over time, that led to the use of slogans, images and jingles to emotionally connect customers to a brand. In the 21st century though, audiences have become more sophisticated, perhaps more cynical, and thus less easily persuaded by overt attempts to capture their attention and money. The old-fashioned methods of storytelling in business are no longer enough. Now, brands must tell their stories and attract customers by proving themselves useful before anyone has even put money on the table for their product or service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The new corporate storytelling<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Instinctually, humans like things that are high quality, easily obtainable and free, but how can a business provide such benefits and still stay in business?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Content marketing<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>By making free and valuable information available to customers at their fingertips, businesses can build a reputation via association with that quality content. It\u2019s a way to gain the trust of consumers before they make a purchase. In this way,&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/contentmarketinginstitute.com\/what-is-content-marketing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">content marketing<\/a>&nbsp;helps to shape perceptions of a business, thus making that content part of a brand\u2019s story. The topics chosen, the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/adrianalopez\/2014\/07\/30\/game-of-tones-finding-your-brands-voice\/#26e852f16ab5\">tone of voice<\/a>&nbsp;adopted and the methods used \u2013 be it editorial content, video content or social media posts \u2013 can leave as much, if not more, of a positive impression on a modern-day consumer as the expensive TV ads we\u2019re all familiar with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So if you\u2019re a Dubai business looking to build your reputation, try not to focus just on selling. Let people get to know you through useful English and Arabic content on your website and social media platforms. It\u2019s a brand-storytelling strategy that will pay off in the end.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We all use stories in our everyday lives \u2013 to relate experiences, tell jokes, or teach others \u2013 so it makes sense that storytelling would be an essential part of doing business, too.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":836,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-834","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-blog"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>What&#039;s the Story with Content Marketing?
