Why Customers Care About Stories, Not Features


Your product has 10 amazing features, but no one’s buying. Here’s the hard truth: features don’t sell—stories do.


Customers don’t buy products; they buy solutions to their problems. A compelling story demonstrates how your product transforms their lives.

Focus on benefits, not specs. Share testimonials or scenarios that resonate emotionally. Sell the outcome, not the tool.

Key Action Point:
Rewrite your product pitch today to focus on the customer’s problem, the transformation your solution provides, and the emotional benefit they’ll gain.
