Storytelling template
Customer Journey Narrative
Map the customer journey as a narrative from discovery to advocacy. This is the exact template that ships in Nimply’s AI Content Studio — the full prompt is below, with every fill-in variable highlighted.
The full prompt
Write a customer journey narrative for [platform] mapping the experience of [customer_persona] from awareness to advocacy with [brand_name]. Stages: Discovery — how they first heard about you and what caught their attention. Consideration — their hesitations and what overcame them. Purchase — the buying experience. Onboarding — first interactions with the product/service. Success — the moment they got real value. Advocacy — why they now recommend you. Write each stage as a mini-story (50-75 words each) from the customer's perspective. Tone: [tone]. Total word count: [word_count].
Copy it anywhere, or open it in Nimply where each highlighted variable becomes a form field and the output lands as a draft in your planner.

Craft notes
Getting the most from storytelling templates
- Start inside the moment ("The email arrived at 6:04am"), never at the chronological beginning ("I founded the company in 2019").
- Stakes make stories: what would have been lost? The templates ask explicitly.
- The failure-story format builds more trust than any win — but only when the lesson cost you something real.
- End on the change, not the moral. Readers extract lessons better than captions state them.
