Authentic storytelling requires bravery. @lquaint from @Storyation had the audience in Perth saying, yes, yes, yes with confidence at #StateOfSocial20

👏 👏

How do you find authentic stories about your brand? @lquaint believes it starts with having a true understanding of your purpose and brand values. #StateOfSocial20

@lquaint's tips on authenticity, don't be afraid of... - making people uncomfortable - complex real people stories - not 'casting' & 'scripting' - letting go of the narrative - stories that don't have a happy ending #StateOfSocial20

Don't be afraid of stories that don’t have a happy ending. It makes your content more thought provoking and memorable. #stateofsocial20 @state_of_social @lquaint

Brands are so desperate to control the narrative that they either use a casting agent and/or they try and script real people. Both are a terrible idea. #stateofsocial20 @state_of_social @lquaint

Don’t be afraid of making your audience uncomfortable. The truth is if there is not a sad or awkward or challenging moment in your brand storytelling then it’s not real. #stateofsocial20 @state_of_social @lquaint

The opportunity for brands is to tell powerful stories about real people who have ups and downs that provide texture and interest and are above all relatable. #stateofsocial20 @state_of_social @lquaint

The trend towards less polished content that started with Tik Tok has been normalised in the last 9 months when we’ve all been at home doing happy hours on Zoom in our pyjamas. #stateofsocial20 @state_of_social @lquaint

For every person that tells you that 2020 was the year that killed influencers I’d point you to a growing anti-influencer trend that started well before we used iso in everyday conversation. #stateofsocial20 @state_of_social @lquaint

The old marketing of highly choreographed TVCs with actors and radio jingles can never be authentic but social media can be because that’s where real people stories can come to life. #stateofsocial20 @state_of_social @lquaint

While I am so disappointed not to be in Perth to enjoy @TexanMeg's legendary hospitality, I can feel the good vibes from more than 3,000kms away. Tune in to hear me speaking virtually at #stateofsocial20 at 10.40am AWST (1.40 AEST) today! @state_of_social

People assumed it was a ‘lifestyle decision’ when @lquaint started her business. The business she started from a spare room 7 years ago has been acquired by an ASX-listed company. But the stereotypes about female entrepreneurs remain. https://t.co/JGxHvDVZAH
