Tone
Tone of a voice is not about what you say, but rather the way that you say it, and the impression it makes on everyone who reads or hears you.
Zoomcar is transparent, empathetic, friendly and energetic and so we care about the way we are heard or read. After figuring out various situations in which human interaction occurs, there are broadly 3 categories in which our product communication varies.
Constructive Tone - When the context for the user produces positive feeling. For example, in cases of savings, benefits, confirmation messages etc.
Objective Tone - When the conversation is more informatory and transactional. For example, in cases of instructions, CTA microcopy, payments etc.
Gloomy Tone - When the context for the user produces negative feeling. That part where you feel like listening to lo-fi chill music. :P For example, in cases of error messages, car not available etc.
Following are some use cases of the 3 variations of tones and there usage.
