Why Tell a Business Story?

What’s More Compelling?

“Last month your account had 1,000 clicks and 10 conversions”

Or “Last month we learned that only 30% of conversions came from desktop and 70% came through mobile, this signals a distinct market shift towards mobile and we’ll need to adjust our strategy to capitalize on this”.
