Guides brand strategy: purpose, values, positioning, storytelling, voice, and visual identity. Companies with consistent branding see 23–33% revenue lift; people remember stories ~22× more than facts alone. Use this skill when defining a new brand, auditing consistency, or aligning messaging across touchpoints.
Keywords: brand strategy, brand guidelines, visual identity, storytelling, brand voice, design tokens, slide deck, corporate identity, style guide, positioning
When invoking: On first use, if helpful, open with 1–2 sentences on what this skill covers and why it matters, then provide the main output. On subsequent use or when the user asks to skip, go directly to the main output.
Check for project context first: If .claude/project-context.md or .cursor/project-context.md exists, read Sections 2 (Positioning), 3 (Value Proposition), 8 (Brand & Voice), 12 (Visual Identity).
Identify:
| Pillar | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Brand purpose | Why the brand exists beyond profit; one sentence |
| Brand values | 4–5 core values; what you stand for; differentiators |
| Target audience | Who you serve; ICP; jobs to be done |
| Positioning | For [customer] who [need], our [product] is a [category] that [benefit]. Unlike [competitor], we [differentiator] because [reasons] |
| Differentiation | Why you, not alternatives; concrete, not vague |
| Element | Content |
|---|---|
| Hero | Your customer; their needs, wants, context |
| Problem | What they face; how they solve it now |
| Inciting insight | Reframing that creates urgency |
| Brand's role | Guide, tool, or partner—not hero; how you enable resolution |
| Transformation | What better future looks like; proof (case studies, testimonials) |
| Archetype | Tone | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Creator | Innovative, imaginative | Adobe |
| Caregiver | Nurturing, supportive | Johnson & Johnson |
| Ruler | Authoritative, premium | Mercedes-Benz |
| Innocent | Simple, optimistic | Coca-Cola |
| Sage | Wise, knowledgeable | |
| Explorer | Adventurous, independent | Patagonia |
| Outlaw | Rebellious, disruptive | Harley-Davidson |
| Magician | Transformative, visionary | Disney |
| Hero | Courageous, determined | Nike |
| Lover | Passionate, sensual | Chanel |
| Jester | Playful, fun | M&M's |
| Everyman | Relatable, down-to-earth | IKEA |
Align archetype to customer personality; strengthens storytelling.
| Element | Definition | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Voice | Brand personality; consistent across touchpoints | Professional / Friendly / Technical / Bold |
| Tone | How you say it; adapts to context | Confident but not arrogant; helpful; concise |
| Avoid | Buzzwords, terms to never use | "streamline," "revolutionize," "synergy" |
| Preferred | Terms to use consistently | "audit" not "analysis"; "customer" not "user" |
Product marketing context Section 8: Document voice, tone, avoid, preferred terms. See project-context template.
| Element | Strategy | Implementation |
|---|---|---|
| Colors | Primary, secondary, CTA; industry mapping | brand-visual-generator |
| Typography | Display + body; hierarchy; pairing | brand-visual-generator |
| Logo | Variants, clear space, minimum size | logo-generator |
| Imagery | Tone, subject matter, visual mood | Brand guidelines |
| Consistency | Same identity across web, social, product | All touchpoints |
For full visual specs (fonts, HEX, spacing), see brand-visual-generator. For logo placement and implementation, see logo-generator.
Single source of truth. Include:
When the user needs actionable specs (not only strategy)—for web, slides, or print—produce a token table the team can paste into a design system, media kit, or slide master. Align with brand-visual-generator for full web/CSS detail.
| Token category | What to document | Example fields |
|---|---|---|
| Colors | Named roles + values for light/dark if applicable | Primary #______, text primary #______, background #______, accent 1–3, CTA, border, error/success |
| Typography | Family, weight, size scale, line-height | Display / H1–H3 / body / caption; web-safe or system fallbacks |
| Spacing | Base unit and scale | e.g. 8px base; section gaps; logo clear space in em or px |
| Non-text accents | Charts, shapes, dividers | Rotate accent colors; avoid arbitrary one-off hues outside palette |
Applying tokens across surfaces
If the user pastes an existing brand PDF or bullet list, extract and normalize into this token table before suggesting implementation.

💡 Pro Tips
✓ Use when
Use for user story writing, competitive research, roadmap prioritization, stakeholder communication, and PRD drafting. Best for reducing repetitive documentation and research work.

branding is among the better-maintained entries we tried; worth keeping pinned for repeat workflows.
Keeps context tight: branding is the kind of skill you can hand to a new teammate without a long onboarding doc.
branding fits our agent workflows well — practical, well scoped, and easy to wire into existing repos.
I recommend branding for anyone iterating fast on agent tooling; clear intent and a small, reviewable surface area.
branding has been reliable in day-to-day use. Documentation quality is above average for community skills.
Registry listing for branding matched our evaluation — installs cleanly and behaves as described in the markdown.
branding reduced setup friction for our internal harness; good balance of opinion and flexibility.
