+    LEGAL SERVICES. DISTRIBUTION OF THIS DOCUMENT DOES NOT CREATE AN
+    ATTORNEY-CLIENT RELATIONSHIP. CREATIVE COMMONS PROVIDES THIS
+    INFORMATION ON AN "AS-IS" BASIS. CREATIVE COMMONS MAKES NO WARRANTIES
+    REGARDING THE USE OF THIS DOCUMENT OR THE INFORMATION OR WORKS
+    PROVIDED HEREUNDER, AND DISCLAIMS LIABILITY FOR DAMAGES RESULTING FROM
+    THE USE OF THIS DOCUMENT OR THE INFORMATION OR WORKS PROVIDED
+    HEREUNDER.
+
+Statement of Purpose
+
+The laws of most jurisdictions throughout the world automatically confer
+exclusive Copyright and Related Rights (defined below) upon the creator
+and subsequent owner(s) (each and all, an "owner") of an original work of
+authorship and/or a database (each, a "Work").
+
+Certain owners wish to permanently relinquish those rights to a Work for
+the purpose of contributing to a commons of creative, cultural and
+scientific works ("Commons") that the public can reliably and without fear
+of later claims of infringement build upon, modify, incorporate in other
+works, reuse and redistribute as freely as possible in any form whatsoever
+and for any purposes, including without limitation commercial purposes.
+These owners may contribute to the Commons to promote the ideal of a free
+culture and the further production of creative, cultural and scientific
+works, or to gain reputation or greater distribution for their Work in
+part through the use and efforts of others.
+
+For these and/or other purposes and motivations, and without any
+expectation of additional consideration or compensation, the person
+associating CC0 with a Work (the "Affirmer"), to the extent that he or she
+is an owner of Copyright and Related Rights in the Work, voluntarily
+elects to apply CC0 to the Work and publicly distribute the Work under its
+terms, with knowledge of his or her Copyright and Related Rights in the
+Work and the meaning and intended legal effect of CC0 on those rights.
+
+1. Copyright and Related Rights. A Work made available under CC0 may be
+protected by copyright and related or neighboring rights ("Copyright and
+Related Rights"). Copyright and Related Rights include, but are not
+limited to, the following:
+
+  i. the right to reproduce, adapt, distribute, perform, display,
+     communicate, and translate a Work;
+ ii. moral rights retained by the original author(s) and/or performer(s);
+iii. publicity and privacy rights pertaining to a person's image or
+     likeness depicted in a Work;
+ iv. rights protecting against unfair competition in regards to a Work,
+     subject to the limitations in paragraph 4(a), below;
+  v. rights protecting the extraction, dissemination, use and reuse of data
+     in a Work;
+ vi. database rights (such as those arising under Directive 96/9/EC of the
+     European Parliament and of the Council of 11 March 1996 on the legal
+     protection of databases, and under any national implementation
+     thereof, including any amended or successor version of such
+     directive); and
+vii. other similar, equivalent or corresponding rights throughout the
+     world based on applicable law or treaty, and any national
+     implementations thereof.
+
+2. Waiver. To the greatest extent permitted by, but not in contravention
+of, applicable law, Affirmer hereby overtly, fully, permanently,
+irrevocably and unconditionally waives, abandons, and surrenders all of
+Affirmer's Copyright and Related Rights and associated claims and causes
+of action, whether now known or unknown (including existing as well as
+future claims and causes of action), in the Work (i) in all territories
+worldwide, (ii) for the maximum duration provided by applicable law or
+treaty (including future time extensions), (iii) in any current or future
+medium and for any number of copies, and (iv) for any purpose whatsoever,
+including without limitation commercial, advertising or promotional
+purposes (the "Waiver"). Affirmer makes the Waiver for the benefit of each
+member of the public at large and to the detriment of Affirmer's heirs and
+successors, fully intending that such Waiver shall not be subject to
+revocation, rescission, cancellation, termination, or any other legal or
+equitable action to disrupt the quiet enjoyment of the Work by the public
+as contemplated by Affirmer's express Statement of Purpose.
+
+3. Public License Fallback. Should any part of the Waiver for any reason
+be judged legally invalid or ineffective under applicable law, then the
+Waiver shall be preserved to the maximum extent permitted taking into
+account Affirmer's express Statement of Purpose. In addition, to the
+extent the Waiver is so judged Affirmer hereby grants to each affected
+person a royalty-free, non transferable, non sublicensable, non exclusive,
+irrevocable and unconditional license to exercise Affirmer's Copyright and
+Related Rights in the Work (i) in all territories worldwide, (ii) for the
+maximum duration provided by applicable law or treaty (including future
+time extensions), (iii) in any current or future medium and for any number
+of copies, and (iv) for any purpose whatsoever, including without
+limitation commercial, advertising or promotional purposes (the
+"License"). The License shall be deemed effective as of the date CC0 was
+applied by Affirmer to the Work. Should any part of the License for any
+reason be judged legally invalid or ineffective under applicable law, such
+partial invalidity or ineffectiveness shall not invalidate the remainder
+of the License, and in such case Affirmer hereby affirms that he or she
+will not (i) exercise any of his or her remaining Copyright and Related
+Rights in the Work or (ii) assert any associated claims and causes of
+action with respect to the Work, in either case contrary to Affirmer's
+express Statement of Purpose.
+
+4. Limitations and Disclaimers.
+
+ a. No trademark or patent rights held by Affirmer are waived, abandoned,
+    surrendered, licensed or otherwise affected by this document.
+ b. Affirmer offers the Work as-is and makes no representations or
+    warranties of any kind concerning the Work, express, implied,
+    statutory or otherwise, including without limitation warranties of
+    title, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non
+    infringement, or the absence of latent or other defects, accuracy, or
+    the present or absence of errors, whether or not discoverable, all to
+    the greatest extent permissible under applicable law.
+ c. Affirmer disclaims responsibility for clearing rights of other persons
+    that may apply to the Work or any use thereof, including without
+    limitation any person's Copyright and Related Rights in the Work.
+    Further, Affirmer disclaims responsibility for obtaining any necessary
+    consents, permissions or other rights required for any use of the
+    Work.
+ d. Affirmer understands and acknowledges that Creative Commons is not a
+    party to this document and has no duty or obligation with respect to
+    this CC0 or use of the Work.

+# Brand Voice — The Napkin Company
+
+Voice rules and lexicon for writing on behalf of The Napkin Company.
+
+## Tone
+
+Direct. Concrete. Specs over adjectives. The reader is a planner, a buyer, or a marketing director who needs to act — not a casual reader being entertained.
+
+Lead with the **what** and the **how** (sizes, quantities, days, dollars). Adjectives only when they add information ("Airlaid" is informative, "premium" alone is not).
+
+## Punctuation
+
+- **Em dash** for asides — never ellipses or parentheses around an aside.
+- **No exclamation marks** except in greetings and opening thank-you lines. Body copy and CTAs never use them.
+- **Numbered lists** for sequential actions.
+- **Bulleted lists** for options at the same level.
+- **Always close** with the practical next step (request a quote, send artwork, confirm the date).
+
+## Lexicon
+
+### Use
+
+- "We make for…" or "we work for…"
+- "From 50 units"
+- "12 business days from artwork approval"
+- "37 Pantone-matched foils"
+- "Custom napkins" (general), "branded napkins" (B2B), "personalized napkins" (private client)
+- "Airlaid", "Doble Punto", "3-ply", "2-ply" — the four material names, always capitalized as shown
+
+### Avoid
+
+- **"To print"** — The Napkin Company is not a printing company. Use "we make for" or "we work for" instead.
+- **"Premium"** as a blanket adjective. Use it only when the actual material is Airlaid.
+- **"Cheap"** in any context. We don't compete on price.
+- **"Forever"**, **"always"**, **"never"** — too broad.
+- **"Quality"** as an adjective ("quality napkins"). Specify the actual quality: "Airlaid napkins" or "3-ply napkins".
+- **Geographic origin claims** — do not state where The Napkin Company manufactures, where its factory is, or which state/city it operates from. The service area (United States, all 50 states) is fine to state; production location is not.
+
+## Voice in numbers
+
+When mentioning specs, use the exact format:
+
+- Quantities: **From 50 units** (not "from fifty"), **up to 1,000,000+** (not "millions")
+- Sizes: **3.94 x 3.94 in folded** (not "approx. 4 inches"), **15.75 x 15.75 in open** (not "dinner-size")
+- Turnaround: **12 business days** (not "around two weeks"), **5-day rush** (not "fast turnaround")
+- Foils: **37 Pantone-matched colors** (not "many colors")
+
+## Voice in CTAs
+
+A CTA is a sentence with a verb and an object. No emojis, no exclamation points, no clever wordplay.
+
+- "Request a quote"
+- "Chat on WhatsApp"
+- "Send your artwork"
+- "Confirm the date"
+- "Tell us the material, quantity, and timeline"
+
+## Closing patterns
+
+Every customer-facing piece of writing closes with a practical next step. Examples:
+
+- "Request a quote and we'll respond same business day."
+- "Send artwork and we confirm the closest Pantone foil before production."
+- "Tell us the date and we work backward to a 5-day rush if needed."
+
+## Format constants
+
+When writing public-facing content (web, email, press), keep these values stable across all copy:
+
+- Email: `hello@thenapkincompany.com`
+- WhatsApp: `+1 786 964 9146`
+- Standard turnaround: **12 business days**
+- Rush turnaround: **5 business days**
+- Minimum order: **50 units**
+- Foil color count: **37 Pantone-matched**
+- Service area: **United States (all 50 states)**
