What happens is fact, not truth.
Truth is what we think about what happens.
Robert McKee “Story”
![Page 42: Welcome to the DH Marketing Conference 2010 Elaine Walsh E Comm International, Inc](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062620/551b244155034607418b5c89/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
People buy the story that’s attached to the product, the service or your idea.
They don’t buy the product, service or idea. They buy the emotion it gives them.
![Page 43: Welcome to the DH Marketing Conference 2010 Elaine Walsh E Comm International, Inc](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062620/551b244155034607418b5c89/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
People buy meaning and emotion.
Whether you’re selling soft drinks or routers, a charity or test equipment, people buy first for emotion and then justify it with fact.
That’s what a brand is. Story telling.

The most effective messages engage the whole brain

The meaning of a brand is its most precious and irreplaceable asset.
The brand tells the story of your company and your product and creates an emotional affinity. That affinity allows your rational arguments to be heard.
Successful brands know this.

It will never work in this department.
It needs a lot more thought (or research, or study)
Won’t fly
Too political!
It will never go over with the
people upstairs
We’re doing just fine as it is
It’s just a fadWe’ve never done it that way
beforeWe tried it and it didn’t work
There’s no budget for it
We have too many layers
Too radical
No clear mandate
We just can’t take the chance
