Storytelling is a genuine field of interest of narratology and the philologies. While it becomes important to both managers and researchers, these origins in analysing and discussing seem to be underrated in contemporary approaches. This paper seeks to close this gap by introducing theories from the humanities regarding qualitative methods for a conceptual frame that covers the core elements of storytelling and the possibilities of transmitting certain issues on the purpose of specific effect. For values are a typical issue in brand management, we offer an example of a qualitative approach towards values in storytelling. Finally, we offer an outlook on a following consecutive research combining both qualitative and quantitative methods.
