Understanding Story and Story Set

A Story Set acts as a comprehensive campaign, encompassing a series of Stories that together weave a complete narrative designed to engage and guide the audience through a curated journey.

πŸ‘‰ Each Story Set represents the overarching theme or message of the campaign, serving as a container that holds multiple Stories, akin to chapters in a book. The Story Set provides the structure and context within which individual Stories can be understood.

Within each Story Set lies the individual Story, which is a single, self-contained unit of content.

πŸ‘‰ Each Story offers a specific piece of the larger narrative, complete with its own imagery, text, and a unique call to action that prompts customer interaction. These Stories are the fundamental elements that captivate the audience's attention, delivering bite-sized, impactful messages that contribute to the overarching goals of the Story Set.

πŸ’ͺ Together, the Story Set and its constituent Stories form a powerful tool for storytelling and customer engagement on websites.

πŸ’‘

An On-Site Story feature can encompass numerous story sets, allowing for a layered and rich storytelling experience. Each set can act as a distinct chapter within the broader narrative, offering diverse and engaging content to visitors.

  • Stories Title: Assign a title to your collection of Stories. This name will serve as the identifying label for your narrative series.
  1. Add New Story: A button that suggests adding an individual story to the set.
