How to teach Buzz your brand voice

Open your Hive profile and add Posts that sound right: Buzz copies their rhythm and word choice before anything else.

Add Words to avoid, run the Your stories interview, and let Learn from your posts propose posts from your connected accounts.

Nothing on the profile changes until you keep what Buzz proposes.

Add posts that sound right

  1. 1. Open Hive in the menu and open your Hive profile.

  2. 2. Go to Sharpen the voice and, under Posts that sound right, press Add.

  3. 3. Pick up to 10 under Your posts, or open Paste one and paste a post from anywhere.

  4. 4. Press the button that counts your picks, such as Add 3 posts.

Buzz copies up to 6 at a time, and these weigh the most in your Hive strength. In the same section, Words to avoid lists words Buzz never writes for this brand. Every change saves as you make it.

Tell Buzz your stories

  1. 1. On the profile, go to Your stories and press Start the interview, then Start.

  2. 2. Answer each question by typing, or press the mic and speak. Skip leaves one out.

  3. 3. After the last question, press Finish.

  4. 4. Press the × on anything you don't want in your posts, then press Save to your stories.

Buzz may then use what you kept as fact in the posts it writes for this Hive. Nothing is saved until the last press.

Learn from your published posts

  1. 1. Under Learn from your posts, press Read my posts.

  2. 2. Press the tick to keep a proposed post or the × to drop it, then press again to confirm.

  3. 3. Under How your posts sound, press Use this voice and then Replace it, or Keep the one I have.

Note: LinkedIn asks for your yes first. Press Allow on Let Buzz learn from your LinkedIn posts to include them, or Not now to leave them out.

Questions

Does this use up my monthly limits?

No. Adding posts, reading your posts and reading your edits are part of setting up the Hive, so none of them count.

Will Buzz make up details around my stories?

No. It keeps your own names, numbers and details and adds none, and you check every item before it's saved.
