Best Practices

• •Develop a Brand Voice Guide: Document key tone words (e.g., mysterious, empowering, sophisticated, authentic), a "we are/we are not" list (e.g., "We are enigmatic, we are not vague"; "We are confident, we are not arrogant"), and examples of approved language and phrasing.
• •Use Evocative & Sensory Language: Incorporate words that appeal to the senses and create a sense of mystique and quality (e.g., "shadow," "midnight leather," "ancient," "whispers," "velvet-lined," "hand-finished").
• •Focus on Individuality & Empowerment: Frame product benefits around self-expression, confidence, and standing out from the mundane. Use "you" and "your" to speak directly to the customer's desire for uniqueness.
• •Maintain a Balance of Edge and Sophistication: While catering to alternative aesthetics, ensure the language reflects the premium quality of the leather and craftsmanship. Avoid overly casual or slang terms that might dilute the brand's sophisticated edge.
• •Consistency Across All Channels: Ensure the tone is consistent from website copy and product descriptions to social media captions, email marketing, and customer service interactions. Regular internal reviews of external communications can help maintain this.
