Why Tone of Voice matters
Tone of Voice isn’t just decoration for your ideas, it also carries meaning.
It says things about your topic and it says things about you.
Get it right and you’ll make your message maybe a hundred times more convincing.

Story x Voice = Impact

How Voice Scores Work
Score of 100 is “highest,” not“best”– Target score may vary based on
audience & content– Also reflects your brand
Score calculations not customer-specific– Instead, you adjust targets to your corporate &
document goals
