Building a StoryBrand

Donald Miller

The VMT Review — Small Business library

The StoryBrand framework helps companies simplify their message by making the customer the central character and the company the guide. It is particularly useful for businesses whose marketing is dominated by company history, jargon, credentials, or long lists of services.

What the reader will learn

Founders learn to clarify the customer’s problem, communicate empathy and authority, present a simple plan, create a clear call to action, and explain what success looks like. Mentors should help founders use the framework naturally rather than mechanically.
