It all begins with a story. Maybe you want to engage with your customers. Maybe you want to build brand awareness. Or maybe you want to promote your products or services. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story on social media can make all the difference.

If you are a purpose-driven entrepreneur, small business, or nonprofit organization, this is especially true for your brand. What is the image you are reflecting? Who makes up the community you are building? What is the story you are sharing?

Stories are the threads that weave the fabrics of our local and global communities. And social media has emerged as the stage where these stories unfold, creating a profound impact on the way we search, share, shop, connect, and empathize.

Social media gives every brand a voice, a platform, and an audience. The owner of a small business in Charlotte, North Carolina, can now introduce their products to a potential customer in Alberta, Canada. A nonprofit in Dallas, Texas, can now share their vision with potential funders in Miami, Florida.

That is the power of social media. That is the power of stories.

When fused together, the two can become a catalyst for positive change, a force to inspire powerful movements, and a spark to ignite purposeful conversations.

At wema creatives, we are fervent believers in the power of words… and photos, and music, and video, and art. Because each of these elements craft stories. Stories are all around us. Stories are us.
