Storytelling
What is the storytelling?
The new way to make brand and product adv
Why storytelling?
Because in a globalized market you don’t sell
anymore just the product, you need to sell emotions
Why is it a winning strategy?
Because our entire existence is made by stories and
we all live for emotions

other castaway?

or his bravery. But what if no one has told his story?
