The 3 files you need
- brand.md — who they are, who they serve, tone, kill list.
- voice.md — sentence patterns, favorite words, 3 example posts.
- CLAUDE.md — the "meet the brand" page. Points to the other two.
Don't write them from scratch — have Claude fill them
Fill this brand guidelines template based on what you
know about [brand name]. Leave blanks or write
"[TO CONFIRM]" where you'd be guessing.
[paste the template]
Then the same for voice.md:
Same brand. Now fill the voice brain template.
Use 3 of my best posts as the voice reference:
[paste the template]
[paste 3 example posts]
Generate CLAUDE.md last
In Claude Code, inside the client folder:
/init I'm the marketing manager for this brand
Claude reads brand.md and voice.md and writes CLAUDE.md automatically.
Scale it
New client = copy _template/, rename, have Claude fill it. 30 minutes.
