Best Practices

• •Immerse in the Lore, Speak with Passion: Consistently use language that reflects a genuine enthusiasm and deep understanding of Viking culture, history, and mythology. This means going beyond surface-level references and incorporating specific terms, symbols, and concepts where appropriate (e.g., "Valhalla," "Runes," "Saga," "Jarl").
• •Balance the Fierce with the Friendly: While Viking themes involve warriors and battles, maintain an approachable, inclusive, and friendly tone in customer interactions and community engagement. Avoid overly aggressive or exclusionary language.
• •Educate and Inspire: Regularly weave informative tidbits about Viking culture into product descriptions, social media posts, and blog content. This reinforces the brand's value of education and adds depth beyond just selling products. Frame this information to inspire a connection to the heritage.
• •Use Evocative and Sensory Language: Employ strong verbs and descriptive adjectives that conjure images of the Viking age, their environment, and their spirit (e.g., "forged," "ancient," "roaring fires," "icy fjords," "unyielding strength").
• •Maintain a Consistent Voice Across Platforms: Whether it's a product description, a Facebook response, an Instagram caption, or an email newsletter, the core tone (enthusiastic, informative, evocative, friendly) should be recognizable. Develop a simple style guide for reference if multiple people are creating content.
