Apple doesn’t sell computers. It sells creativity.
Or maybe it’s more accurate to say people don’t buy computers, they buy the story a company tells about them – that they’re creative, clever, responsible, or anything else that might matter.
Shane Currey, the founder of PRIME Collective Australia, learned this while working in the luxury brand space – without a powerful story behind a brand name, a laptop is just a laptop.
So how do you tell stories people want to believe? And what about the stories you tell about the people within the business? Shane says the right narrative can be a ‘weapon of mass alignment,’ and he can help you point your people in the same direction.
