our story approach
From idea to publication to optimisation
The story is at the centre of your content creation workflow. Our Story Life Cycle is an ongoing process of eight phases that are part of story creation, and we've built our analytics tool around it. From how you define your brand, where and when you publish, and how you measure success, the Story Life Cycle approach lets you ask the right questions at the right time. All supported by data analysis. There's more to content analytics than pageviews, much more.
