# Brand Voice & Style Guidelines
|
||||
|
||||
## Brand Voice Framework
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Voice Dimensions
|
||||
|
||||
#### Formality Spectrum
|
||||
- **Formal**: Legal documents, investor communications, crisis responses
|
||||
- **Professional**: B2B content, whitepapers, case studies
|
||||
- **Conversational**: Blog posts, social media, email newsletters
|
||||
- **Casual**: Community engagement, behind-the-scenes content
|
||||
|
||||
#### Tone Attributes
|
||||
Choose 3-5 primary attributes for your brand:
|
||||
- **Authoritative**: Position as industry expert
|
||||
- **Friendly**: Approachable and warm
|
||||
- **Innovative**: Forward-thinking and creative
|
||||
- **Trustworthy**: Reliable and transparent
|
||||
- **Inspiring**: Motivational and uplifting
|
||||
- **Educational**: Informative and helpful
|
||||
- **Witty**: Clever and entertaining (use sparingly)
|
||||
|
||||
#### Perspective
|
||||
- **First Person Plural (We/Our)**: Creates partnership feeling
|
||||
- **Second Person (You/Your)**: Direct and engaging
|
||||
- **Third Person**: Objective and professional
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Brand Personality Archetypes
|
||||
|
||||
Choose one primary and one secondary archetype:
|
||||
|
||||
**The Expert**
|
||||
- Tone: Knowledgeable, confident, informative
|
||||
- Content: Data-driven, research-backed, educational
|
||||
- Example: "Our research shows that 87% of businesses..."
|
||||
|
||||
**The Friend**
|
||||
- Tone: Warm, supportive, conversational
|
||||
- Content: Relatable, helpful, encouraging
|
||||
- Example: "We get it - marketing can be overwhelming..."
|
||||
|
||||
**The Innovator**
|
||||
- Tone: Visionary, bold, forward-thinking
|
||||
- Content: Cutting-edge, disruptive, trendsetting
|
||||
- Example: "The future of marketing is here..."
|
||||
|
||||
**The Guide**
|
||||
- Tone: Wise, patient, instructive
|
||||
- Content: Step-by-step, clear, actionable
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||

||||

|
||||

|
||||
- Example: "You have the power to transform your business..."
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Writing Principles
|
||||
|
||||
#### Clarity First
|
||||
- Use simple words when possible
|
||||
- Break complex ideas into digestible pieces
|
||||
- Lead with the main point
|
||||
- Use active voice (80% of the time)
|
||||
|
||||
#### Customer-Centric
|
||||
- Focus on benefits, not features
|
||||
- Address pain points directly
|
||||
- Use "you" more than "we"
|
||||
- Include customer success stories
|
||||
|
||||
#### Consistency
|
||||
- Maintain voice across all channels
|
||||
- Use approved terminology
|
||||
- Follow formatting standards
|
||||
- Apply style rules uniformly
|
||||
|
||||
### 4. Language Guidelines
|
||||
|
||||
#### Words We Use
|
||||
- **Action verbs**: Transform, accelerate, optimize, unlock, elevate
|
||||
- **Positive descriptors**: Seamless, powerful, intuitive, strategic
|
||||
- **Outcome-focused**: Results, growth, success, impact, ROI
|
||||
|
||||
#### Words We Avoid
|
||||
- **Jargon**: Synergy, leverage (as verb), bandwidth (for availability)
|
||||
- **Overused**: Innovative, disruptive, cutting-edge (unless truly applicable)
|
||||
- **Weak**: Very, really, just, maybe, hopefully
|
||||
- **Negative**: Can't, won't, impossible, problem (use "challenge")
|
||||
|
||||
### 5. Content Structure Templates
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
