“Building a business is not the same as building a brand.”
To rise above the noise, we believe brands need to tell great, authentic stories to emotionally connect and engage. This sweet spot – creative storytelling - is the founding idea behind Brand Story.
Why Brand Storytelling Matters…
Using this tree as an analogy, we know there’s a lot below the surface that’s crucial to the tree's survival. These roots symbolise your ‘brand’ - the very foundations of your business.
‘Story’ (or in this case trunk and leaves!) are the external part of the business that people see and experience. This is how you show (not tell) people who you are what you stand for.
Both are integral to creating a thriving business, which is why Brand Story is there for you from the roots to the shoots!
Our Values
Impact conscious
Brand Story is rooted in feeling good about our overall impact on the world, instead of the quickest route to commercial success.
Balancing
Act
We’re working towards achieving a healthy work life balance - and seek to help our clients do the same thing by sharing some of the load.
Creative
Path
If you can’t find the company, role or solution you’re looking for, maybe you need to create it! We support going out on your own in pursuit of something that fuels you.
Collaborative Community
We work with inspiring, kind and compassionate people. We believe in the power of community, so it’s our intention is to make ours a positive one.
Hi, I’m Tash.
I'm a Communications Consultant, Writer & Founder of Brand Story.
With 10+ years’ of founder-led marketing experience under my belt, my mission for Brand Story is to make and shape brands with a deeper meaning than selling, which I like to call ‘soul’.
As well as my desire to create more sustainable and meaningful brands, my driving force to set up Brand Story was to create a smoother process for entrepreneurs to set up and grow their business. By creating a network of truly talented freelancers with mixed disciplines, we have the capacity to scale up and down projects as needed, to provide you with the exact support you need wherever you are in your journey.
