Tell Your Story
This is a great place to start if you want to test the storytelling waters. It’s common knowledge that the ‘About’ page on a website is the second most visited page after the ‘Home’ page. Before someone will even look at your products and/or services, they want to know who is behind this business or organisation. In other words, don’t neglect your ‘About’ page by using a mug shot and copy that reads like a CV. Get a picture taken that captures your spirit and some copy that introduces your passion for your business or organisation. The end result will be a beautifully written bio and equally stunning picture that you can use whenever you need it.

4 Post Package
Ease into a storytelling campaign with a small campaign of just 4 stories. You can centre the stories around a particular theme, a particular service, a particular product or make them completely different from each other to show a holistic perspective of your business or organisation. Use it as an opportunity to introduce your staff, a new product or service or concentrate fully on the experience of your customers or members. This is a package that can be used strategically to get the most from your investment. Pack a punch in an intensive promotion or drip feed over the year to make the investment stretch.
Description
Included in this package is a planning session where we can ascertain your goals and vision for the posts. From there we can work out who you want to be photographed, what location would be best and how to also work in the interviews so that the campaign can be brought together quickly and efficiently. We’ll also work out when you want to schedule the Facebook posts so that it can all be implemented as seamlessly as possible once completed.

4 x Facebook written posts
1 x scheduling of posts on your page as per your request.
Things to note:
- The length of the Facebook posts is determined by the information shared during the interview. Some people say more than others within the same time period. The number of images used for the campaign depends on whether the post calls for just one powerful image or a set of 3 that highlights the message. This will be discussed as the campaign is put together.
- Where possible, we try to work with you to ensure we can get all the photos required for this campaign captured within one hour. Working with an existing scenario where the particpants would be together is ideal (versus createing a mock event/setup). However, if more than one hour would be required, we can plan to be on location for longer at an additional charge of $50 per hour (after the first hour).
