Storytelling in Technical Marketing
Storytelling helps clients visualize your firm completing their project. That's because a story is the basic structure of information in the human mind, no matter what the story is about. Twennie aims to teach members how to turn technical information into stories.
Storytelling charts a logical course inside a client's mind and gives form to their vision for successful project completion. Business storytelling builds a deeper connection based on emotional drivers of decisions and helps evaluators relate more intimately to the experience. Storytelling makes information easier to remember, and proposal evaluators recognize the elements of a story. This enables them to more easily process the message.
