ANA Disruptor Series: Driving Effective Digital Engagement with Your Brand Story (201) (Virtual)

Establishing an Effective Digital Brand Connection 201
(Virtual Half-Day Workshop)

Virtual Workshop Description
Many marketers still struggle to connect digitally with customers in ways that clearly and authentically communicate the brand essence – and why your customers should engage with you.

The idea that you can convince customers to engage or purchase simply by telling them to is flawed; today ‘story doing’, showing, and acting on how your business can improve your customer’s life is essential to make a lasting impression.

Too often, brands today talk about who they are, their funding, or technical issues at a level that only an engineer could grasp. Talking this way alienates customers and, consciously or subconsciously, leaves a poor taste in their mouth, further risking losses in revenue and market share for your brand. Marketers need to clarify their brand’s voice, personality, and purpose to tell a story that resonates across all digital touchpoints and helps drive customer value.

In this workshop – the second in a two-part series on creating effective digital connections with consumers – we walk you through the steps to driving consumer engagement with your digital presence by homing in and getting clear on your Brand Story. Having established a clear Brand Story, you will then learn how to leverage that Story to drive digital consumer experiences that resonate with your customer and drive lifetime value.
