Brand Voice Guide

Your brand voice isn’t something you create. It’s something you uncover.

Your Brand Voice is the Foundation of Everything

Your brand voice is the common thread that runs through every fiber of your business. It’s in the stories you tell, the way you write and speak, and how your clients experience you from the first impression to the final interaction.

The Brand Voice Guide captures that thread and weaves it into a strategic foundation for your brand by blending brand and customer psychology, language patterns, and the heart behind your work into a voice that reflects how you naturally communicate and stands out wherever your business shows up.

Your brand is more human than you think. 

It has a personality, values, and boundaries that keep it grounded. It has passions that fuel it, topics it loves to talk about, people it naturally connects with, and a purpose that drives it forward.

When you start seeing your brand this way, it stops feeling like only a logo or a list of offerings and starts feeling like a living expression of your work. You start to notice what energizes it, what drains it, and the kind of connection it wants to build with the people it serves.

Once you see your brand this clearly, you can start recognizing the same humanity in your audience — their desires, fears, motivations, and values. This is where the magic happens. You’re able to find shared meaning in your work and start expressing it in a way that feels natural to you and genuinely connects with the people who need what you offer most.

Understanding Your Brand

Your brand isn't a logo or tagline.
It's a                         of you.

Defining Your Brand Voice

The way you speak shapes how people experience your brand. Your language influences what your audience believes about your work, how they feel when they interact with your business, and whether they see themselves in what you offer.

The Brand Voice Guide captures the way you naturally express ideas, connect with clients, and talk about what you do, and translates it into a clear, strategic framework that can be applied across every level of your business.

Through brand and customer psychology, I identify the underlying stories, phrases, and emotional patterns that bring your brand’s communication to life. I read between the lines of what you say (and what you don’t) to uncover the essence of your message and make it tangible.

When your voice is defined with this level of intention, communication stops feeling like a guessing game, because 
you know what to say, how to say it, and why you’re saying it.

To make everything inside your guide easy to use, you’ll also receive a reference handbook. It explains what each section is, why it matters, and how to apply it across your business — from content creation to team onboarding. It includes prompts, templates, and next steps to help you keep your brand voice active and aligned. Whether you’re revisiting your messaging or training someone new, this handbook makes sure your voice stays consistent and your message stays true to you.

Reference Handbook

Your brand story is the soul of your business and the thread that ties everything together. It captures where you’ve been, the challenges you’ve faced, and the moment it all clicked. It also shines a light on your future vision, giving you a milestone to look back on as your brand evolves. This story becomes the emotional anchor for your marketing, your content, and your message, providing you with the context you need for inspiring people to care about your brand.

Brand Story

Your brand and your audience each have their own motivations, desires, and ways of seeing the world. Through brand and customer psychology, this section reveals the emotional patterns that connect the two. You’ll receive brand and customer profiles that outline each side’s core values, challenges, and aspirations, showing you what your audience needs and how your brand fulfills it. This helps you communicate with empathy, create offers that matter to both you and your audience, and build long-term trust that lasts beyond a single sale.

Brand + Customer Archetypes

The way your brand speaks is how people will experience it. In this section, your tone traits, language patterns, and brand vocabulary are clearly defined, giving you the tools to write and speak in a way that feels natural and consistent. Every detail, from phrasing to word choice, mirrors how your brand shows up in the real world. You’ll also get a custom brand glossary so you and anyone who speaks on your behalf can easily maintain your distinct voice across every touchpoint.

Brand Voice + Brand Language

Your values are the north star that guides how your brand exists in the world and expresses itself. You will receive four core brand values and learn how they’re expressed at your company, with your clients, and within your community. Whether you’re deciding which clients to take on, how to grow your team, or which opportunities are truly right for you, these values act as your compass for both communication and decision-making.

Brand Values + Values in Action

Your brand foundations outline the heart of your business — what you do, why you do it, and how you want to be remembered. It contains your positioning statement, mission statement, brand promise, and brand anthem. These sections clearly define what your brand stands for and provide you with external assets you can use for bios, partnerships, collaborations, and beyond. Together, they provide a grounded sense of direction for every message you share, decision you make, and offer you create.

You’ll have the words, tone, and confidence to write posts that sound like you, without overthinking every caption. With things like your brand story, values, positioning statement, go-to phrases, and language mapped out, creating content feels natural once again.

Writing emails starts to feel personal, and your audience will feel like they’re catching up with someone who truly gets them. By aligning your values with what your audience cares about, your updates and offers read like conversations with a friend, not salesy campaigns.

The Smartest Investment 
You'll Make in Your Brand

Comprehensive brand strategy packages that include voice, visuals, and websites often start between $3,000-$5,000. For many businesses, that's more than necessary. Especially if what you truly need is a foundational understanding of your brand.

Rather than investing in a full rebrand you might not need, you're focusing on the most strategic piece. The foundations every strong brand builds from. This guide evolves with you — supporting new offers, visuals, and growth — continuing to pay off every time you post, pitch, or plan.

The Brand Voice Guide gives you the essential foundation. Your messaging, values, and psychology, without the extras you're not ready for. It's a practical, lasting framework you'll use across every part of your business.

How I’ll Create Your
Brand Voice Guide

Foundational Content Development

After our call, I review everything you’ve shared in your onboarding materials, our kickoff call transcript, and my personal notes to distill it all into your brand’s four core values. This becomes the foundation for your full Brand Voice Guide. You’ll receive this phase as a document to review, giving us a chance to confirm that everything is in alignment with how you feel about your brand before moving forward.

Frequently Asked Questions

What if I already have brand values or a mission statement?

Perfect, we’ll use those as a starting point. During your kickoff call, we’ll refine them to reflect how your brand actually sounds and feels today. Many clients discover their existing values or mission simply need clearer language that reflects who they’ve become.

Do I need to be at a certain stage in my business for a Brand Voice Guide?

Not at all. Whether you’re building from the ground up or refining years of work, this process meets you where you are. What matters most is that you want your business to feel grounded, intentional, and true to who you are, not just another brand that blends in.

How long does the process take?

On average, the full Brand Voice Guide process takes about four to six weeks. The exact timeline depends on how quickly we’re able to coordinate meetings and move through revisions. Some clients finish a little sooner, others take a bit longer. It’s designed to move at a pace that keeps quality high and stress levels low.

Do you offer payment plans?

The Brand Voice Guide investment is split into two phases: a 50% deposit to reserve your spot on my client roster and the remaining 50% before delivery of your final guide.

Can I bundle this with other TruYou Media services?

Yes! And honestly, it’s my favorite way to work with clients. Starting with a Brand Voice Guide builds the strongest possible foundation for everything that follows and gives me deep insight into your brand, voice, and creative process.

It pairs especially well with my Social Media Management packages, ensuring everything we create together sounds like you from day one. When you bundle, you’ll receive $150 off onboarding for your Social Media package.
