A simple, powerful and super-useful way of understanding tone of voice


The 11 Primary Voices model is super-useful for copywriters, marketers, brand-folk – and anyone else who writes stuff for brands and businesses. It's used worldwide by many of the world's best copywriters, agencies and educators to sharpen their thinking about 'brand voice' and voice and style in copywriting generally.

In this fun and quick-fire 40-minute video, Nick Parker explains the 11 Primary Voices framework, with loads of real examples from some of the best brands writing today.

Available for the first time in this format!
Until now, the 11 Primary Voices model has only been available as part of the complete Voicebox method. Now you can get just the juicy Primary Voices bit on its own. Lovely.

Yes! 🙌 I gotta know this

Who made this?

Nick Parker

'We're often stuck talking about tone of voice in terms of things like 'professional', 'human', 'not fluffy or formal'. I wanted to help my clients talk about what they wanted with greater clarity and precision. Now we talk about a voice being, say, an Energizer with a dash of Simplifier. Or a full-on Firestarter, or a Sensualist-Straight-talker mash-up. We're all on the same page. It makes for stronger creative work, better collaboration – and it's just way more fun.'
