Brand Personality Contradictions

You can select a combination of brand personalities that best reflect your brand. However, not all personalities are compatible with one another. To maintain a consistent and coherent brand voice, Brand AI restricts the selection of conflicting personalities. This ensures that your content doesn't send mixed signals or feel disjointed to your audience.
