If you use ChatGPT to help write emails, social media posts, website copy, or marketing content, you may have noticed a frustrating problem: the words are technically fine, but they don’t sound like you.
Maybe ChatGPT uses phrases you would never say. Maybe the writing feels too formal, too polished, or just a little too “AI.” And having to type “make this sound more like me” every single time gets old fast.
If you’ve been wondering, “How do I make ChatGPT sound like me?”, one of the easiest places to start is by giving ChatGPT clear instructions about your voice before you ask it to write anything.
In this video, I show you how I use a brand voice guide with ChatGPT’s Custom Instructions so it has more context about how I naturally communicate. That includes things like the words and phrases I want it to avoid, how simple I want the writing to be, and the conversational style I want it to use.
How to personalize ChatGPT with your brand voice
A brand voice guide gives ChatGPT a set of boundaries to work within. Instead of correcting the same writing habits over and over, you can tell it upfront how you want your content to sound.
In the tutorial, I walk you through where to find the personalization and Custom Instructions settings in ChatGPT, what information I add there, and how I use the brand voice guide I created to make those instructions much more specific.
This is especially helpful if you use ChatGPT regularly for your business and want the first draft to sound more natural, conversational, and closer to something you would actually say.
Watch the video to see exactly how I set mine up and how you can use the same process with your own voice.
