How to Find Your Brand Archetype: The Complete LLM Prompt

Your brand has a voice. The question is whether you chose it.

Brand Archetypes: The System That Drives E-commerce Conversion
The 12 brand archetypes applied to e-commerce: 3 practical tests to find yours, microcopy examples, and where your voice should stay quiet.

The problem is the usual way of choosing one: a brainstorm in a meeting, driven by introspection. You end up with a brand horoscope: flattering, interchangeable, unusable.

This prompt works the other way around: it deduces your archetype from your data, not from your moodboard.

It runs three tests: an analysis of the verbs in your customer reviews, the sentence your competitor could never publish, and the voice that comes out in your support replies under pressure. It then returns a dominant archetype, its taboos, and microcopy examples adapted to your customer journey.
