Expression

Voice & tone

We sound like the sharpest operator in the room, not the loudest agency. Every sentence should survive being read out loud to a CFO.

Voice attributes

Direct

Short sentences. The point first. No warm-up paragraph.

Not blunt or rude.

Operator-fluent

We talk P&L, occupancy, cost per booked appointment, comp.

Not jargon for its own sake.

Specific

Numbers, locations, timeframes. Claims come with evidence.

Not exaggerated.

Dry

A little wit is fine, usually at the expense of bad marketing.

Not cute or meme-y.

Tone by context

The voice never changes. The tone flexes.

Website & adsConfident, punchy, evidence-led. Short lines.
Proposals & decksPlain and structured. Lead with the diagnosis, then the plan.
ReportingNeutral. State what moved, what didn't, what we're doing about it.
Bad newsFast, owned, specific. Cause, impact, fix, date. No hedging.
SocialOpinionated and useful. Teach something in every post.

Mechanics

Do

  • Write in second person: 'you built something people love'.
  • Use numerals for every figure: 5 to 200 locations, 43 locations, 91%.
  • Use em dashes sparingly and periods generously.
  • Name the outcome in the CTA: 'Book a call', 'See how we work'.

Don't

  • Exclamation points, ALL-CAPS shouting, or emoji in client-facing copy.
  • Buzzwords: synergy, cutting-edge, world-class, revolutionary, unlock, elevate.
  • Vague superlatives without a number attached.
  • Passive voice when someone is accountable.
