Apply the kit to larger surfaces
After this, you'll be able to create website and deck usage rules and use it to move from vague brand taste toward a usable identity system.

The idea
The brand must work on larger surfaces where copy, layout, proof, and visuals all interact. This lesson asks you to make website and deck usage rules, not a vague creative preference. The output should be specific enough that Claude, Canva, Adobe Express, Claude Design, or a designer can use it without guessing.

Here is the before and after: Before, the website and deck each reinterpret the brand. After, both have rules for hero copy, proof blocks, slide titles, imagery, callouts, and how the logo appears. For example, a solo service brand should show who it helps, what promise it makes, what proof supports that promise, and where the identity must appear first. A company brand should add rules for collaborators, templates, and repeated use.
Now try it: Ask Claude to turn the brand kit into rules for a business site and a pitch deck. Make one choice before asking Claude to write: audience, promise, reference, asset type, tool, launch context, or review risk. That choice keeps the work from turning into generic brand inspiration.
The lesson is done when the artifact can guide a real brand asset and survive one honest review.

Watch out for
Paste this into Claude
Use this brand kit: [paste]. Create website and deck brand rules. Include hero copy style, proof section style, slide title style, image rules, chart or diagram rules, logo placement, and common mistakes to avoid. If any input is missing, ask me up to three questions before producing the artifact. Then return five sections: Finished Artifact, Realistic Brand Example, Assumptions To Check, What I Should Use In The Next Lesson, and One Risk If I Use This Publicly Without Fixing It. Keep the answer practical enough that I can paste it into my brand working doc.
What a good response looks like
Finished Artifact: - website and deck usage rules - Why it matters: it gives the brand system a concrete thing to inspect instead of a vague intention. - Use it next: paste this artifact into the next lesson before asking Claude to write, build, import, publish, or review anything. Reality Check: - The artifact names the user, input, decision, owner, or proof it depends on. - The weakest assumption is visible. - The next step can be completed in one sitting.

Paste this into Claude
Without rereading the lesson, explain why website and deck usage rules matters in three bullets. Then apply it to a second brand example: [describe a different solo brand, company, or project]. Return What Changed, What Stayed The Same, What To Check Before Public Use, and the exact next action.
What a good response looks like
Transfer Check: - What changed: the second example has a different audience, input, or delivery context. - What stayed the same: website and deck usage rules still needs a source, a review check, and a next step. - Before trusting it: inspect the brand review check that would catch a wrong assumption. - Next action: run the check once, then carry the revised artifact into the next lesson.

When this breaks
AI can help with this
Paste the exercise prompt into Claude with your real brand context. Ask Claude to interview you one question at a time, produce website and deck usage rules, challenge the weakest assumption, and rewrite the artifact once so it is ready for the next brand step.

You can now
You can point to website and deck usage rules.
Key takeaways
Brand rules become real when they guide the bigger surfaces people actually inspect.
