It helps businesses elevate their brand, attract more clicks on their websites and gain more leads by making their messages more attention-grabbing and memorable. As Donald Miller writes in Building a StoryBrand, “when you confuse, you lose.” Therefore, it’s critical for companies to craft messaging that is simple and engaging.
