B2B storytelling
B2B storytelling is about the everyday, about the ongoing news, about personal experiences, in short: about being perceived as a brand and personality. That creates authenticity. It creates sympathy. It is a prerequisite for closeness, enthusiasm, and loyalty.
B2B STORYTELLING.
There is always something to tell.
B2B storytelling is still relevant and more versatile than ever!
Storytelling was an efficient form of communication thousands of years ago and remains a powerful tool in B2B brand communication today. Stories have the ability to attract attention, arouse emotions, and gain the interest of the target group. What makes B2B storytelling special is the combination of facts and meaningful context that makes information memorable.
In today’s world, media formats have changed. Instead of sitting in caves or around campfires, we now sit in front of screens and smartphones. Social media platforms such as X (formerly Twitter), LinkedIn, Facebook and Instagram offer a variety of ways to tell stories in short form or across media. Digitalization and mobility of communication open up new opportunities for us in brand consulting and as a branding agency to use B2B storytelling successfully.
The evolution of storytelling: from cave walls to social media.
The importance of B2B stories: creating authenticity and closeness
Unlike epic novels like “Harry Potter,” B2B storytelling focuses on the everyday and personal. B2B storytelling is about being perceived as a brand and establishing an authentic connection with the target group. The little stories in B2B can be case studies in which companies vividly illustrate their solutions to problems and showcase satisfied customers. People who were involved in these stories receive faces and names. This creates trust and sympathy, which forms the basis for strong brand loyalty.
The multimedia possibilities today are vast and varied. Images, videos, and texts are used on various platforms such as websites, Facebook, Instagram, or YouTube to tell stories, not to mention podcasts and channels like Spotify. Adapting to each medium is crucial to reach targeted audiences and increase reach.
B2B storytelling is not only outward-facing, but also has an important role in internal communications. Employees and potential applicants can better understand the corporate culture and identify with the brand through stories.
