Storytelling Is the New Sales Pitch.
Gen Alpha doesn’t just buy products, they buy into stories.
Air Jordan, Kit Kat, and Sprite climbed the ranks this year for one reason: storytelling.
They link every product back to identity, heritage, or emotion. Whether it’s Michael Jordan’s legacy or Kit Kat’s global flavours, the story adds meaning.
What you can do right now:
Add short stories to your projects: what inspired the design, what challenge it solved, who built it.
Feature your team, names, faces, personality.
Use captions and emails that sound human, not corporate.
Turn every product or service into a story someone can relate to.
Storytelling builds trust faster than any ad ever will.
