Narration – telling your brand story

Narration is a new Marketing Consultancy focusing on growing your business through brand storytelling

Stephen Ryan, Founder

I founded Narration because I believe more businesses could benefit from telling their authentic story. I have been marketing brands in Cork over the last decade, being lucky enough to work as Head of Marketing at Cork’s Red FM for over 2 years and Fota Wildlife Park for over 7 years.

I enjoyed great success at both organisations and in the last 10 years played a key role in helping both companies have record years in terms of listeners and visitors. On top of this I have won numerous awards including 3 Eir Spider Awards including best Website in Ireland, 4 Cork Digital Marketing Awards, 2 Irish Radio Awards and 1 Cork Company of the Year award.

As a result of this success, I was brought in to Cork Institute of Technology to lecture students on the areas of Digital Marketing and Marketing, a role I have been fulfilling since 2014.

I also helped develop the first Masters in Digital Marketing Strategy in Munster at CIT. On top of that, I have guest lectured in UCC on their MBA programme and give talks at numerous marketing events throughout the year.

In the last year, I have been mentoring on the Exxcel programme at the Rubicon centre and have also worked with a number of SMEs on their marketing strategies in the Cork region.

I am looking forward to bringing my extensive experience to the marketplace with Narration by offering companies of all sizes help getting their message out to the public.
