If you’re trying to lure audience for some charity gigs, then you can tell the purpose of why and for whom you held the event.  Or if it’s about commercial promotion, tell a particular story about someone with the product and its impact. It can be a heartwarming story or funny story, depend on how you want to deliver it.
