# Social Media – Language and Tone
|
||
|
||
## Purpose
|
||
This section defines how the brand communicates on social media platforms to maintain consistency, professionalism, and engagement while reflecting brand personality.
|
||
|
||
## Key Principles
|
||
- **Authenticity:** Be genuine and human; avoid corporate jargon.
|
||
- **Clarity:** Keep messages simple, scannable, and accessible.
|
||
- **Engagement:** Encourage conversation, not just broadcasting.
|
||
- **Respect:** Treat all users with dignity; avoid sarcasm or hostility.
|
||
|
||
## Language Guidelines
|
||
- Use **plain language** that is easy to understand.
|
||
- Maintain a **friendly and approachable tone** while remaining professional.
|
||
- Use contractions where natural (e.g., "we’re" instead of "we are").
|
||
- Avoid slang, memes, or trends that do not align with brand values.
|
||
- Use inclusive language (e.g., “everyone” instead of “guys”).
|
||
|
||
## Tone by Context
|
||
- **Announcements:** Clear, direct, factual.
|
||
- **Customer Engagement:** Friendly, supportive, and solution-focused.
|
||
- **Celebrations/Milestones:** Upbeat, appreciative, community-centered.
|
||
- **Crisis/Issues:** Calm, measured, empathetic, and factual.
|
||
|
||
## Platform Nuances
|
||
- **Twitter/X:** Concise updates, timely responses, hashtags where relevant.
|
||
- **LinkedIn:** Professional updates, industry insights, thought leadership.
|
||
- **Instagram:** Visual-first storytelling with concise, supportive captions.
|
||
- **Facebook:** Balanced mix of announcements, community posts, and event sharing.
|
||
- **TikTok (if used):** Authentic, creative, but aligned with brand voice.
|
||
|
||
## Response Guidelines
|
||
- Respond to comments and messages **within 24 hours** when possible.
|
||
- Acknowledge criticism respectfully; do not delete unless offensive or abusive.
|
||
- Use escalation protocols for **customer complaints or sensitive issues**.
|
||
|
||
## Do / Don’t Examples
|
||
- **Do:** “Thanks for your feedback—we’re looking into it and will update soon.”
|
||
- **Don’t:** “Calm down, that’s not our problem.”
|
||
|
||
## Accessibility
|
||
- Always add **alt text** for images.
|
||
- Use **CamelCase** for hashtags (#ThisIsAnExample).
|
||
- Avoid using only emojis or GIFs to convey meaning.
|
||
|
||
## Measurement & Maintenance
|
||
- Track engagement metrics: reach, shares, sentiment, response time.
|
||
- Review tone and engagement **quarterly** to ensure alignment.
|
||
- Refresh guidelines **annually** or after major platform changes.
