You know that moment when a brand’s voice suddenly shifts from “friendly expert” to “formal robot” halfway through a product page?
I crafted a custom style guide that helps create cohesive copy including:
Grammar & Usage Rules

Why Bother?
I crafted a custom style guide that helps create cohesive copy including:
Grammar & Usage Rules
- Oxford comma: ally or enemy? (Spoiler: We’re pro-Oxford.)
- Active vs. passive voice: When to use each (and when to stop torturing your readers).
- Brand-specific quirks (like whether you’re “emailing” or “e-mailing”).
3. Product & Service Descriptions
- Balancing technical accuracy with approachable language (because “proprietary technology” might also need a plain-English translation).
- Tone guidelines (Is your brand a “wry mentor” or a “helpful neighbor”?).
- Forbidden phrases (RIP “synergistic solutions”).
- Examples of exactly how to nail your voice—from social posts to white papers.
Why Bother?
- Saves time: No more debating hyphen usage in Slack at 11 p.m.
- Builds trust: Customers notice when your voice is consistent.
- Empowers teams: Freelancers, new hires, and even that one exec who still writes in ALL CAPS will know exactly what to do.
- Style docs for businesses and brands.
- Revamps of legacy guides.
