# Brand Storytelling — "Tidemark Coffee" (15 posts, Instagram)
Background: founder quit a finance job after a trip to a Colombian farm where pickers earned cents; built a direct-trade roastery. Audience: ethically-minded coffee drinkers. Tone: honest, a little raw.
**1. Origin story** — "I had a corner office and a coffee habit I never thought about. Then I stood on a hillside in Huila and watched a woman pick all day for less than my latte cost. I came home and quit." *(Trigger: awakening.)*
**2. The problem** — "Your 'ethically sourced' bag probably isn't. Most 'fair trade' pays the farmer the same poverty wage with a nicer logo." *(Trigger: indignation.)*
**3. The mission** — "We pay farmers 3x the commodity price and publish every invoice. Radical transparency or nothing." *(Trigger: hope.)*
**4–7. Values series (4 posts):** transparency (the published invoices) · dignity (naming every farm) · quality (single-origin only) · patience (we'd rather grow slow). Each with a real example.
**8–10. People:** the picker who became our partner · our roaster's first batch · a customer who switched after reading post 2.
**11–15:** BTS first roast · the bag-design fail that taught us · the journey post (nearly went broke year one) · the vision (a co-op we co-own) · **finale:** "Two years ago I quit. Today a farmer in Huila owns part of this company. Pour a cup. You did that." *(Trigger: belonging — the season finale.)*
