Tone of Voice

Definition

The consistent style and personality of your written and spoken words, covering how warm, playful, formal or bold your brand sounds.

Why it matters

A consistent tone of voice makes your brand feel like a real person customers can trust, and it sets you apart from competitors who sound generic.

Example

A cheeky skincare brand might say "slather it on, you gorgeous thing" instead of a flat "apply product to skin".
