Agile Epics and Stories

I’ve been working on a project recently that is using the agile methodology. The users were having a bit of trouble grasping the differences between Epics and User Stories. Just to recap all an Epic is, is a big story. It’s is something that will have to be broken down into many stories before it is even close to development.

Below is a diagram i came up with to illustrate that there is no magic size on when a story should become an epic and that this is ok. it’s different project by project.
