When trafficpoint rebranded to ryze beyond, I worked alongside the branding agency leading the
project, consulted on every decision, with my own focus on language and messaging instead of
visual identity.
I created a formal tone of voice document setting out how the new brand
should sound across every touchpoint, and briefed other teams, including sales and social, on
how to use it consistently. Part of the job was finding language that worked across every level
of the company, from the website down to internal culture. I wrote new slogans for employees to
use on their LinkedIn banners, including “let’s get straight to the point” and “together we
ryze,” giving the team a way to carry the new brand into their own networks instead of leaving
it as something that only lived on the company page.
How I
worked:
Consulting on the rebrand: Worked alongside the branding
agency through the rebrand process, weighing in on naming and positioning decisions while
focusing my own work on language and tone.
Writing the tone of voice
guide: Created a formal documented guide defining how ryze should sound, used as the
reference point for anyone writing on behalf of the brand.
Briefing other
teams: Ran through the new voice and messaging with sales and social teams, so the
rebrand showed up consistently everywhere, not just in content I wrote
myself.
Bringing employees into the brand: Wrote slogans for staff
LinkedIn banners, turning the rebrand into something the whole team could visibly carry into
their own networks.
