Creating a Tone of Voice for Claude (and not only)

In this newsletter, I will both guide you and provide the tools to create a tone of voice you can upload as a skill to Claude. The same doc can be used as instructions to other LLMs to teach them to speak like you.

This guide is split into two parts: The easy way to build a skill, the advanced way.

a) The Easy Way: An Interview

An interview skill will help Claude to ask questions, and based on your answers deliver the skill.

It will be asking a series of questions until it can fill up the whole skill as it is structured.

b) The Advanced Way: Scraping Your Content

This is intended for more ambitious and technically adept marketers who have a lot of content already written. You can either scrape your LinkedIn or upload your content from other platforms and let the AI do it’s work.
