Story Framework for Marketing & Video: Truth, Problem, Tension, Solution, Vision, and Invitation
On this episode of Between Two Pixels Podcast, host Katie Gillen talks with Josh Peters about their story framework—truth, problem, tension, solution, vision, invitation—and why story-driven marketing helps brands connect by making the audience the hero rather than focusing on features and benefits.
They explain how the framework starts with clear audience personas, then builds a logical, connected narrative that sets a worldview (truth), identifies pain points (problem) and root causes (tension), shows what the brand provides (solution), clarifies the bigger change or aspiration (vision), and ends with an appropriate call to action (invitation) based on where the audience is in the funnel.
They discuss using the framework across scripts, campaigns, messaging guides, sales collateral, and strategy sessions. They talk about how it reveals internal misalignment and why third-party facilitation can help. They also mention training resources on their website and hiring their team.
