Architecture and strategy:the difference between

a marketing stack anda marketing pile.

“Technology is only as good as the story.”– Ann Handley

But in a digital world,programming is storytelling too.

• Software bought & built

• Configurations & parameters

• Algorithms & process design

• User experience (UX) design

• Data processing & flow

Digital storytelling includes:

Software functionality & flow are woveninto the narrative of your buyer’s journey.

Marketing today isn’t about getting

buyers to picture your narrative…

It’s about gettingthem to experience it.
