Characters: Your audience needs someone to root for. In branding, this could be your customer or your brand itself.
Conflict: What’s the problem your audience is facing? Highlight their pain points and show how your brand can solve them.
Resolution: Provide a satisfying conclusion by showcasing the benefits of your product or service.
