Case studies are often more effective than brochures and traditional sales collateral. Why? Because everyone loves a story. An old adage says, “A picture is worth 1,000 words.” Never did this wisdom ring truer than in sales conversations and marketing pieces. Stories paint pictures. Stories evoke emotions. Stories are memorable. Stories give your presentations sticking power. The easiest way to tell a marketing story is by case study. Start by hooking your reader with a relatable problem; present the solution and close with a happy ending. Do it right and your story will be the piece that the executive keeps on her desk for weeks, hands out to her staff and relates during strategic planning meetings. Case studies are magical because they can be used and reused in so many ways – they can be turned into ads, published articles, sales sheets, presentations and more. People can’t resist reading them – not only do they love good stories, but they’re dying to know how they’re competitors are dealing with common issues. And while your audience is reading, your name recognition is growing, your credibility is climbing and the road is being paved for sales success – all without the natural resistance and skepticism that traditional sales methods evoke.
