Hey rebel solopreneurs 🦸♀️🦸♂️
Most content creators spend years "finding their voice" to write any of their content.
Smart ones create it in 20 minutes.
➳️ Why this works
For years, writers hear the same advice.
"Keep writing. Your voice will emerge eventually."
So they write. And write. Post after post. Some hit. Some flop. No pattern.
Here's the thing:
Your writing voice is like mixing paint.
You don't wait years for the perfect color to appear. You grab red. Blue. Yellow. Mix them. Adjust the ratios. Create exactly what you need.
Voice works the same way. It's just identifiable attributes mixed together.
Word choice. Structure. Cadence. Data or no data. Stories or frameworks. Clean or edgy.
99% of writing can be reverse-engineered into 5 different voice archetypes.
Everyone thinks their voice is one-of-a-kind. The truth? The vast majority of voices fall into one of 5 buckets.
Storytelling. Opinion. Facts. Frameworks. Edginess.
The difference is the ratio.
Some mix 60% story with 30% frameworks. Others go 50% opinion with 40% facts. Different ratios create different voices.
Ghostwriters know this. They write in 4-5 different voices daily because they understand the buckets.
Turns out, you don't find your voice. You create it. BAM.
Let's see how Maya figured this out:

Maya is a productivity coach. Posts on LinkedIn 5 times a week.
But here's her problem.
After 6 months and 120 posts, her content was all over the place. One post? 50,000 views. Next post? 800 views.
She'd study the winners. "Okay, I shared a story there. More stories."
Next 5 posts? Mixed results. Some hit. Some didn't.
Then she'd try frameworks. "People love actionable stuff."
Same thing. Random performance.
6 months. 120 posts. Still no clue what actually worked.
The problem? Maya thought she needed to "find" her voice naturally. She didn't know voice could be created.
Then Maya found something. A principle from someone who'd run a multimillion-dollar ghostwriting agency.
A concept called "The 5 Voice Archetypes."
It explained exactly why random experimenting killed consistency. And how to nail your exact voice mix in 20 minutes instead of 6 months.
Maya decided to follow these steps:
Step 1: Learn the 5 archetypes (what makes each voice identifiable) Step 2: Analyze her best content to find her voice mix percentages Step 3: Use that mix as her editing guide going forward
🎬 Step 1: Maya learns the 5 voice archetypes
Maya needed to analyze her best posts. But she needed a framework first.
The framework needed just the 5 archetypes and what makes each one identifiable. From there, it would give her a lens to see patterns. Maya could stop guessing.
The 5 voice archetypes framework:
Here are the 5 Voice Archetypes every writer mixes from:
Archetype #1: The Storyteller
Loves dates, times, locations, real-life examples
Uses phrases like: "In 1999…," "The first time I…," "A few years ago…"
Makes abstract concepts concrete through narrative
Archetype #2: The Opinionator
Emphasizes strong opinions with conviction
Uses phrases like: "There's a reason why…," "It's unbelievable how…," "Never," "Always"
Uses adverbs for emphasis: "Really," "Rarely," "Honestly"
Makes the writer's stance crystal clear
Archetype #3: The Fact Presenter
Backs up opinions with memorable stats or research
Uses: Stats, studies, research papers, surveys
Adds credibility through data
Makes claims verifiable
Archetype #4: The Frameworker
Gives readers actionable steps to execute
Names their frameworks: "A Proven Process…," "A Timeless Framework…"
Thinks about moving readers from point A to point B
Makes concepts implementable
Archetype #5: The F-Bomber
Pushes boundaries with brash, abrasive language
Uses: Cursing, ranting, sarcasm
Makes content feel raw and unfiltered
The framework revealed something.
Maya's best posts? They weren't random. They all mixed specific archetypes. She just couldn't see it before.
Completion moment: Maya knew exactly what attributes to analyze her content for.
📊 Step 2: Maya analyzes her content to find her voice mix
Maya had the 5 archetypes. Time to find her exact mix.
She ran this prompt to analyze her best content.
The prompt needed just her top posts. From there, it would scan for all 5 archetypes, calculate percentages, and show her exact mix.
The voice analyzer prompt:
You are my personal "writing voice analyzer."
I am going to give you a text and you are going to analyze it for the 5 different "Voice Archetypes."
Here are the 5 Voice Archetypes:
1. The Storyteller
- Storytellers love dates, times, locations, real-life examples of what they've learned
- For example: "In 1999…," "The first time I…," "A few years ago…," etc.
2. The Opinionator
- The Opinionator emphasizes a strong opinion on a topic
- For example: "There's a reason why…," "It's unbelievable how…," "It's abundantly clear that…," "Never," "Always," etc.
- Opinionators use adverbs to add emphasis in their writing
- For example: "Really," "Rarely," "Honestly," etc.
3. The Fact Presenter
- The Fact Presenter backs up their opinion with a memorable stat or research-backed story-study
- For example: "Stats," "Studies," "Research papers," "Surveys," etc.
4. The Frameworker
- The Frameworker gives the reader something actionable they can go and execute on to achieve a similar outcome
- They think carefully about how to move readers from point A to point B
- Frameworkers name their frameworks
- For example: "How-tos," "A Proven Process…," "A Timeless Framework…," "A Simple Checklist…," etc.
5. The F-Bomber
- F-Bombers are abrasive
- They push boundaries with their words using brash and abrasive language
- For example: Cursing, Ranting, Sarcasm, etc.
Here are the steps:
1. You will ask me for the text
2. Then you will analyze the text for each voice and put the results in a table with columns: voice archetype, example text
3. Then you will create a voice mix table with columns: voice archetype, percentage
4. And finally you will describe the voice mix of the writer

The AI sidekick returned Maya's exact voice mix:
Voice Mix Analysis:
Frameworker: 45%
Storyteller: 30%
Opinionator: 20%
Fact Presenter: 5%
F-Bomber: 0%
Maya scanned the numbers. Almost half her best content was frameworks. A third was stories. Strong opinions made up a fifth.
That's why random "story posts" tanked. Her audience wanted frameworks FIRST. Stories SECOND. Not the other way around.
Not bad.
Completion moment: Maya had her exact formula. 45% framework, 30% story, 20% opinion. No more guessing.
✏️ Step 3: Maya uses her voice mix to edit with precision
Maya had her voice mix. Now she needed to train her ear to hit it consistently.
She ran this prompt to practice voice mixing.
The prompt needed just a sentence from her draft. From there, it would rewrite the same idea in all 5 archetypes. Maya could see the difference and learn the patterns.
The voice mixer prompt:
You are my personal "writing voice mixer."
I am going to give you some text. Then you are going to rewrite it in 5 different "voice archetypes."
Here are the 5 Voice Archetypes:
1. The Storyteller
- Storytellers love dates, times, locations, real-life examples of what they've learned
- For example: "In 1999…," "The first time I…," "A few years ago…," etc.
2. The Opinionator
- The Opinionator emphasizes a strong opinion on a topic
- For example: "There's a reason why…," "It's unbelievable how…," "It's abundantly clear that…," "Never," "Always," etc.
- Opinionators use adverbs to add emphasis in their writing
- For example: "Really," "Rarely," "Honestly," etc.
3. The Fact Presenter
- The Fact Presenter backs up their opinion with a memorable stat or research-backed story-study
- For example: "Stats," "Studies," "Research papers," "Surveys," etc.
4. The Frameworker
- The Frameworker gives the reader something actionable they can go and execute on to achieve a similar outcome
- They think carefully about how to move readers from point A to point B
- Frameworkers name their frameworks
- For example: "How-tos," "A Proven Process…," "A Timeless Framework…," "A Simple Checklist…," etc.
5. The F-Bomber
- F-Bombers are abrasive
- They push boundaries with their words using brash and abrasive language
- For example: Cursing, Ranting, Sarcasm, etc.
Here are the steps:
1. You will ask me for the text
2. Then you will rewrite the sentence in each voice
3. And finally you will store the output in a table
Here is the table output:
- Column headers: tone, rewritten sentence
- Rows: each of the tones I listed
- The first row should be the original voice
- The "voice" for that one should be "Original voice"

The AI sidekick returned 5 versions of Maya's opening line.
She saw it immediately. Her original was 80% opinion, 20% story. But her voice mix needed more framework.
She rewrote using the Frameworker version as a base. Added 30% story elements. Kept 20% opinion.
Perfect. That's her mix. 45-30-20.
From there, Maya practiced. Took random sentences. Ran the mixer. Saw all 5 versions.
After 2 weeks? She trained her AI sidekick to write in her exact voice mix and she polishes it.
Completion moment: Maya could edit with precision instead of guessing what felt "off."

Her AI sidekick handles the first draft in her voice mix. Maya just polishes.
She went from writing everything manually to having AI create on-brand drafts.
🧩 Your turn
Copy both prompts into your AI sidekick. Run them in the same chat.
Paste your 3-5 top posts into Prompt 1. Your AI sidekick analyzes each one for the 5 archetypes and outputs your exact voice mix percentages.
Then use Prompt 2 to practice. Paste any sentence. It rewrites it in all 5 archetypes so you can see the difference.
Once you know your mix, train your AI sidekick to write in your voice. Give it your percentages. Let it create drafts. You polish.
Generation time: 30 seconds for analysis. 15 seconds for mixing. Time to trained AI sidekick: 20 minutes.
That's it, my fellow outliers!
