egendary business writer Seth Godin has three essential questions for every marketer:

“What’s your story?” “Will the people who need to hear this story believe it?” “Is it true?”

All marketers tell stories. And if they do it right, we believe them. As Seth Godin has taught hundreds of thousands of marketers and students around the world, great marketers don’t talk about features or even benefits. Instead, they tell a story—a story we want to believe, whether it’s factual or not. In a world where most people have an infinite number of choices and no time to make them, every organization is a marketer, and all marketing is about telling stories.
