You need to introduce the people involved. With content marketing, the people that are involved are your readers. Your audience. Storytelling can’t happen without valuing and understanding your audience. You should always be listening and respond to your audience’s wants and needs. If potential customers can get the answers to their questions AND see themselves as characters in your story, they’ll be more likely to use your product or service and experience the happy ending you offer.

author, behind the content.
Conflict helps build developmental and emotional dynamics. It helps make a connection between two entities, and human-to-human connections are the foundation for a successful business. Remember, you’re dealing with people, not machines–your company is providing answers, relieving stress, creating happiness, and making life easier for the end user. The revenue your company makes comes from a well-thought business plan and customers who believe in you and what you do. If your story lacks conflict, then you’re probably not telling a story. Instead you’re telling a pitch, tagline, unique selling point, or a plain statement.
