New York, NY (PRWEB) December 11, 2015 -- Falcon + Wolf (http://www.falconandwolf.com), the New York brand consulting group that specializes in storytelling, content marketing, and integrated media today announced the launch of the FalconWolf Content Lab (http://www.falconandwolf.com/content-lab.html) , a dream team of storytellers. The team includes a broad range of content creators from professional writers, well-known bloggers, journalists, industry experts, and thought leadership strategists, to user experience and design professionals, to filmmakers, animators, artists, and photographers. In addition to content expertise, many of the Lab’s members are experts and thought leaders in categories from media, luxury and sports to travel, food, wine & spirits, automotive, sustainability, NGOs, social responsibility, entertainment and the arts.

Falcon + Wolf is a New York brand consulting group led by four women with deep roots in the media business:

The FalconWolf Content Lab was conceived as a way to illustrate how truly authentic stories are told in an era when research shows that nearly every brand—B2C, B2B, Non-Profit, Academic—has plans to devote increasing resources to content strategy in 2016, even though current surveys show brands aren’t sure how they are going to create the authentic content their audiences demand and expect.

“Our motto is: We’ll tell your story. People come to us for brand strategy, or media relations or social media, but we quickly discover that what they really need is a content strategy—enough authentic, relevant stories to build a community and keep them interested,” says Falcon + Wolf’s CEO Amy Wolfcale. “Brands tell us they plan to spend more on content next year, even though they aren’t sure how they’re going to do it. With the FalconWolf Content Lab, our aim is to close what we call The Authenticity Gap by helping our clients create the content that will keep their audiences coming back. Real stories are driving a fundamental shift in how we build brand strategy because that's what people want—an authentic story they can use, discuss, and share.”
