other brand's style guides



Isn't it great to look at other brands stuff? Someone just leaked the the style guide to Verizon's "Test Man."

Some highlights:

Test man is:
25-35 years old
Entertaining
The embodiment of Verizon Wireless employees
Relentless in his mission
Friendly
Every day guy
A bit quirky
A little obsessive and compulsive
Likeable character
Appealing to all ethnicities

Test Man is not:
Annoying
Goofy
Easily distracted
Aloof
Stupid
Too "pretty"

Examples of Events that do not adhere to usage guidelines and will not be approved:
• Look-alike contests
• Marching in parades
• "Meet and greet" with customers
• Any activity where he is not testing the network (i.e. sitting in a hot tub)
