Challenge accepted.
If you haven't already, be sure to checkout Part 1 of this blog, Why bother? Trying to stand out among the 10,000 marketing messages the average person is exposed to per day is a bit of a daunting task. If you have found your "why," your passion, and your purpose, this may not seem like a challenge at all. In fact, you’re probably dying to show those 10,000 marketing messages how it’s really done! But first, let's talk strategy...
Where do you start?
Well, everyone loves a good story.

If you have spent the time to discover your "why" (like we talked about in part 1 of this blog), you already have a start to content – so start telling your story! Brands are driven by storytelling. Make it compelling, so it resonates with your target audience.
