Common Mistakes to Avoid

Generic values: Listing “innovation, quality, integrity” without specifics makes messaging indistinguishable from competitors. Write values that actually differentiate - if 100 other companies in your industry could claim the same value, it’s not useful.

Audience too broad: Targeting “businesses” or “professionals” instead of specific personas like “B2B SaaS marketing managers at 50-200 person companies” creates generic messaging. The template needs concrete audience context to generate relevant tone and key messages.

Vague UVP: Writing “we make analytics easy” instead of specific benefit like “transform usage data into plain English insights without SQL or spreadsheets” gives the template nothing to differentiate you. Include concrete how you solve the problem differently.

Missing personality traits: Leaving brand personality blank or choosing contradictory traits like “Bold + Conservative” confuses tone guidelines. Pick 2-3 specific traits that match how you want customers to perceive you.

Wrong industry context: Entering “tech” instead of specific vertical like “SaaS analytics for product-led growth companies” loses crucial positioning context. The more specific your industry, the sharper your messaging.

Copying competitor messaging: Using another company’s values or UVP as input creates derivative positioning. The template works best when you articulate what actually makes you different, even if messy or incomplete.

Frequently Used With

Customer Persona: Brand messaging targets specific audiences. Build detailed personas first to inform tone and key message development.

Ad Copy: Brand promise and taglines become headlines for ad campaigns. Use messaging framework to maintain consistent voice across Google Ads, Facebook, and LinkedIn.

Content Calendar: Tone guidelines and key messages shape blog posts and social content. Reference brand messaging when planning content themes.

Marketing Campaign: Campaign messaging should ladder up to brand positioning. Use this template to establish foundation before building campaign-specific copy.
