How to Find Your Unique Brand Voice

Emily Aborn

Text Emily!

"Find Your Voice". Ah, the classic elusive and vague advice shared far and wide across the internet, amiright? 

What does that even mean? How do I find it? Where was it before I found it? Is a brand's voice the same as the business owner's personality? 

Brand Voice is the consistent way you/your business communicate. It’s an art and a science, a careful blend of pacing, rhythm, flow, the words you choose, and the feelings or mood you conjure up. The result is a voice that's distinctly YOU. 

Your Brand Personality might share attributes of your voice, but it’s more of the human traits that make you and your business relatable, recognizable, and have depth and layers. 

Personality is the WHO in your communication. Aka the pilot steering the plane. 

Voice is the HOW in your communication. What kind of plane are we taking to get there? How many stops are we taking? How much fuel do we need? How many people can we fit in here? 

In this episode, I show you the difference between personality and brand voice and give you some tangible examples so you can start defining, embracing, and expressing yours.
