How To Create a Brand Profile

To keep setup fast without sacrificing control, the Brand Profile uses a two-step structure.

Step 1: Define Your Brand Foundation

You start by defining:

  • Your brand name
  • What you do and who you serve
  • Your industry
  • Your brand personality traits

This isn’t guesswork. It’s a starting point designed to save time and reduce blank-page friction.

These fields establish identity and context.

They anchor the system in reality before persuasion begins.

As shown in the screenshot below:

Step 1: Add Brand Voice



Brand Name

Enter your brand name exactly as it should appear in copy.

Use your public-facing name. Avoid legal suffixes unless they are part of your branding.

What Do You Do?

Briefly describe:

  • What your business does
  • Who it serves

This is not a marketing copy.

It helps the system understand scope and domain.

Industry

Select the industry that best represents your business.

Industry selection matters because:

  • Different industries tolerate different tones
  • Claims and proof are evaluated differently
  • Levels of restraint vary by category

Choose the closest fit.

Brand Personality Traits

Select up to five traits that reflect your brand’s personality.

These traits influence:

  • Word choice
  • Sentence length
  • Energy and pacing
  • Assertiveness vs restraint

Choose traits that describe how you want to be perceived, not how you feel personally.

Step 2: Define How Your Brand Sounds and Thinks

From these inputs, CopyPower.ai pre-fills several strategic fields in Step 2.

Any pre-filled fields in Step 2 are:

  • Suggestions, not final decisions
  • Fully editable
  • Meant to be reviewed and refined

Think of Step 2 as the place where you confirm, sharpen, and align your Brand Profile.

  • Strong Step 1 inputs lead to cleaner suggestions.
  • Clear Step 2 edits lead to sharper copy everywhere else.

This step controls voice, posture, and point of view.

Step 2: Update Brand Voice
Field Purpose 
Part 1: Brand Positioning & Values 
Elevator Pitch (Auto-Filled, Editable)

Your elevator pitch is split into three parts:

  • Main result or transformation
  • Mechanism or method
  • Key differentiator

These are often pre-filled based on Step 1.

Review and refine them so they reflect how you want to position the brand.

Target Emotional Tone

Choose the dominant emotional tone you want across channels.

This sets the global mood of your copy, such as:

  • Calm vs Energetic
  • Reassuring vs Urgent
  • Professional vs Playful

Think about how you want your audience to feel while reading.

Core Brand Values

Enter your core values, one per line. The first value is treated as primary and carries the most weight.

Values influence what the system emphasizes, downplays, or avoids.

Brand Archetype

Select the primary archetype that best fits your brand narrative.

Archetypes influence:

  • Authority posture
  • Teaching vs leading vs guiding
  • How persuasion is expressed

Choose the archetype that best reflects how your brand earns trust.

Part 2: Define What Your Brand Believes These fields shape the point of view, not just the tone.
Core Belief — Industry Mistakes

Describe what your industry typically gets wrong and what you refuse to do.

This helps the system:

  • Avoid clichés
  • Frame problems more sharply
  • Signal differentiation without hype

One to three sentences is enough.

Core Belief — Market / Category List broader beliefs or stances you hold about your market or category. These act as strategic guardrails for messaging.
Core Belief — Unpopular Truth

State one contrarian or uncomfortable truth your brand stands by. This is especially powerful for authority content and insight-led assets. 

Keep it grounded and precise.

Core Belief — Myth to Bust

Describe a common misconception you actively challenge. This gives the system permission to reframe assumptions and educate before persuading.

Part 3: Brand Language Control  These fields allow you to control the brand language so the copy is always consistent 
Phrases to Use

Add signature phrases or terms you want used consistently.

These may include:

  • Positioning language
  • Internal terminology
  • Distinctive wording

Use sparingly. Precision matters more than volume.

Phrases to Avoid

List words, clichés, or phrases your brand never uses.

This prevents:

  • Hype-driven language
  • Generic industry jargon
  • Terms that erode trust

This is one of the highest-impact fields in the Brand Profile.

Brand Origin and Proof (Optional) These fields improve accuracy and credibility but are not required.

Brand Story / Origin


A short origin story explaining why the brand exists.

Used selectively, not everywhere.

Brand Voice Samples

If you want your copy to sound in a specific way, you can include a sample copy here. 

The system extracts style and rhythm only.

It does not copy text verbatim.

Proof Signals

Awards, certifications, endorsements, and media mentions.

Only include what is real and verifiable.

If none apply, leave these fields blank.

Competitors

List key competitors in your space.

This helps the system understand:

  • Your competitive landscape
  • What language to avoid sounding like
  • How differentiated your positioning should be

This does not trigger comparisons or attacks. It acts as a background constraint to keep the copy credible and distinct.

A Note on Accuracy and Control

CopyPower.ai does not invent brand facts.

Any fields related to:

  • Awards
  • Certifications
  • Endorsements
  • Media mentions
  • Competitors

are used only if you explicitly provide them.

If a field is left blank, the system will:

  • Not guess
  • Not fabricate credibility
  • Default to restrained, neutral copy

This is a deliberate design choice to protect trust.


Best Practices for Strong Brand Profiles

  • Optimize for clarity, not cleverness
  • Avoid contradictions across fields
  • Treat beliefs as strategic inputs, not opinions
  • Think long-term. This profile should scale as your brand grows

A strong Brand Profile reduces editing, increases consistency, and improves every asset you create.
