I'd bet it follows the exact same structure as mine. That structure is a Hollywood cheat sheet, 100 years old, and it works just as well on your business as it does on the big screen. In the next five minutes I show you how to use it to build your own brand story: the three-act structure behind every great film (and every great brand), compressed into five lines — situation, desire, conflict, change, result — plus the one-sentence pitch that does the work of a movie logline. I use my own coffee company, Apostle Coffee, as the worked example, and pull in Jaws and James Dyson's 5,127 failed prototypes to show why the conflict line is the one most founders skip — and exactly why that's the part of their story that's costing them the most. I'm Jon Stanford. I've got a master's in filmmaking and a decade of experience making content for brands like Warner Bros and Red Bull. Story is my specialty, and I've already made the mistakes so that you don't have to — these days I bring all of it to founder-led businesses through my marketing studio, Bullfinch Digital. This is the framework in brief — if you want the full walkthrough, including a filmmaking trick called "breaking the fourth wall" that weaves your customer straight into your story, check out my deep-dive video on this (linked above). I've also dropped a free worksheet if you'd rather print this out and work through it slowly: https://marktr.io/yt06-dl Drop your logline in the comments — I read every single one and would love to see what you're building.
