# Brand Voice Framework
|
|
|
|
## Voice vs. Tone
|
|
|
|
**Voice** = Brand's personality (consistent)
|
|
**Tone** = How voice adapts to context (variable)
|
|
|
|
Example: A friendly brand (voice) might be celebratory in a win announcement but empathetic in a support response (tone).
|
|
|
|

|
- Friendly, not unprofessional
|
|
- Knowledgeable, not condescending
|

### Step 3: Context Adaptation
|

|
|
| Context | Tone Shift | Example |
|
|
|---------|------------|---------|
|
|
| Social media | More casual | "Hey there!" |
|
|
| Support | More empathetic | "We understand..." |
|
|
| Legal | More formal | "In accordance with..." |
|
|
| Sales | More confident | "You'll see results..." |
|
|
|
|
## Voice Testing
|
|
|
|
Ask these questions:
|
|
1. Does this sound like our brand?
|
|
2. Would a competitor say this?
|
|
3. Does it resonate with our audience?
|
|
4. Is it consistent with our values?
