FAQ’s about working with StoryMatters

  • People make a decision to stay or leave your site in about 8 seconds. They have a “gut reaction” to your site in about .05 seconds (gulp…). A hard to read layout, distracting color scheme, poor photos, and other visual imagery will force people off your site quickly. You mission needs a platform — and a great website will do that.

  • StoryBrand is proven marketing framework developed by Donald Miller that helps businesses clarify their message by using principles of storytelling to connect with their audience.

    The core idea is to position the customer as the hero of a story and the business as their guide. StoryBrand aims to simplify and clarify a company’s messaging, so people immediately understand how the business can solve their problems and improve their lives.

    Here are the seven key steps in the StoryBrand framework:

    1. A Character – The story begins with a hero, who is the customer, not the brand. This step defines the target customer and clarifies what they want or need.

    2. Has a Problem – Every hero faces a challenge or problem. StoryBrand categorizes these into external (practical), internal (emotional), and philosophical (value-driven) problems that the brand’s product or service addresses.

    3. Meets a Guide – In this narrative, the business becomes the guide who understands the customer’s problem and can help them succeed. The guide demonstrates empathy and authority to build trust with the hero.

    4. Who Gives Them a Plan – The guide offers a clear, simple plan to help the hero achieve their goal or overcome the problem. This could be a step-by-step process, a checklist, or a road map.

    5. Calls Them to Action – This involves motivating the hero to take the next step, which could be purchasing a product, scheduling a call, or signing up for a newsletter. A strong call to action is critical for guiding customers forward.

    6. Helps Them Avoid Failure – StoryBrand emphasizes the stakes by clarifying what negative outcomes the customer can avoid by using the product or service, underscoring the consequences of inaction.

    7. Ends in Success – Finally, the story concludes with a clear picture of the success the customer will experience if they choose to engage with the brand. This helps customers envision how the product or service will improve their lives.
