the Brief
Your foundational brand messaging. Crafted. Sealed. Kissed. Done.
The Brief is a brand messaging deck that shapes, defines, and gives life to your business’s communication.
The verbal component to your visual brand, The Brief creates clarity around a product or service that’s destined to be known.
Pretty, but boring brands. Tragic.
A well-dressed person walks up to you.
You take out your earbuds to hear what they have to say.
Jargon. Complete jargon. Laced with cliches. Garnished with buzzwords.
Earbuds back in.
They had you. They looked beautiful.
But they lost you with the message.
We can lasso this back to your brand.
You can have the cleanest logo. McKinsey-approved pitch slides. A stunning, responsive, animation-filled website.
But if your brand doesn’t have the verbal meat to match the pretty outside– it’s hard to stand out. Impossible to drive action.
And we all know what you’re doing is too important to have a brand that’s stuck in the pretty, but boring zone.
Gut Check. Is your brand messaging strong?
Gut Check. Is your brand messaging strong?
Sure, you could *actually* put hand on tummy. Or see if these strike a nerve.
If you’re terrified new teammates won’t get it.
If writing (good) copy is the hardest thing to do or outsource.
If your business sounds different at different touchpoints.
If your voice shakes when someone important asks for your pitch.
If you’re struggling to make big, directional decisions.
If creating marketing campaigns feels like a blank slate every time.
If your people aren’t getting excited on sales calls.
If you’re having a hard time with PR.

What’s Included
A gorgeously designed deck with these verbal brand components. Written entirely in your company’s brand voice.
Mission Statement
Why you exist. How you’re changing the world. A big, beautiful statement that provides direction and brings all your stakeholders on board too.
Company One Liner
That punchy little sister to your mission statement. The main shift you’re making, digestible enough for even the fastest interactions.
Problem Articulation
The real problem. The root problem that’s keeping your people up at night. This isn’t a flimsy pain point section. It’s a raw, real, we see you and we know you section.
Solution Articulation
Aka your UVP. When we define your solution, focusing on value– your people will see what you’re creating in the context of why they need to embrace it.
Differentiators Defined
The core of what we do. How do you communicate the very thing(s) that makes you untouchable? Nail this for smooth sales.
Ideal Client Avatar
It’s not about his coffee order. It’s not about her degree. We define your ideal client, showing you how to speak to them, keeping your product journey at the heart of it.
Product Suite Articulation
You have multiple products or services. They all tie together in a customer journey. Define it. Define the synergies. Create language that makes talking to the right people at the right time feel like second nature.
Brand Values
Honesty. Transparency. Respect. No. We’re not corporating up something to put on an About page. We’re crafting tangible values that you can embed throughout every aspect of your overall strategy and marketing.
Headline Bank
You have ads to write. Posts to create. We take the best of your verbal brand and create short, snappy sentences to communicate your value quickly, everywhere.
IG Bio
The power of emojis. Let’s communicate your brand in the most succinct way, even if the concise character count makes it to a different platform.
Founding Story
The face of the company. You. Your journey is important. The rise, the fall, the jumps, and the tears. We craft a compelling narrative that makes people want more of you and everything you create.
Founder Bio
The story is the hook. The bio is the proof. There’s a reason you’re the best person to hold your role. So don’t be demure.
Brand Voice
The Brief is entirely written in your brand voice, but of course we’ll define it for you. Adjectives that mean something, so you can keep this tone consistent every time your business speaks.
Brand Voice Application
Adjectives are stronger with guidance. What does casual mean for your e-comm store? Your startup is friendly, now what? We’ll define what that means so no one on the team is left guessing.
