Kate Kiefer Lee’s Approach to “Voice and Tone” Tone and Voice: Showing Your Users That You Care http://uxmag.com/articles/tone-and-voice-showing-your-users-that-you-care brand user Wednesday, 27 March 13

Slide 51

Slide 51 text

“Our company’s voice is an expression of personality, and it’s ingrained in every piece of content we publish. Our voice is who we are. Our brand’s voice naturally grows over time, but it generally stays the same from day to day. Our brand’s tone, on the other hand, should change often. Tone of voice is an adaptive reflection of feelings.” — Kate Kiefer Lee Wednesday, 27 March 13
