Why Madak Uses StoryBranding
In the best-selling book Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind by Yuval Noah Harari, he calls humans “storytelling beings.” For centuries, our ancestors have been sharing stories with each other in one form or another. First, stories were only shared by word of mouth, then with paintings and symbolic art, and then through the written word. Our love for stories hasn’t changed, though we may consume them differently in the modern day. We watch movies and TV shows, read books and blogs, and even consume stories through social media platforms such as YouTube and TikTok. Humankind’s love for stories can also be a very effective tool for marketing. Businesses and marketing agencies everywhere — Madak included — use a story framework to connect with their target audiences and grow their brand. This article will give insight into why we use StoryBranding at Madak, how we do it, and what inspired us to start.
