Consumers are 70% more likely to recall a business through brand storytelling
ATLANTA, April 25, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- The Atlanta Chapter of the American Marketing Association (AMA) announced today the launch of its new white paper, Storytelling 2020: What You Need to Know About Storytelling in Marketing. Produced by members of AMA Atlanta's Executive Advisory Board, the paper explores the past, present and future of brand storytelling.
"Our goal is to elevate the field of marketing by producing thought leadership that both educates and inspires informed action," said Jana Ferguson, President of AMA Atlanta and Chief Client Officer at DRUM Agency.
Despite the increasingly fragmented media landscape, consumers continue to expect seamless, personalized experiences. Storytelling 2020 gives marketers the tools they need to foster engagement in ways that inspire customers to act.
