Best Practices

• •Embrace Intensity, Backed by Facts: Use strong, confident, and direct language, but always ensure claims are supported by transparent labeling and an emphasis on scientifically-backed ingredients and dosages. Avoid unsubstantiated hype.
• •Speak Athlete-to-Athlete: Address the audience as knowledgeable and serious about their training. Use terminology understood within the hardcore fitness community, but avoid being overly exclusionary if aiming for slight market expansion. The core message should resonate with dedication and the pursuit of peak performance.
• •Champion Transparency Relentlessly: Make "No BS," full disclosure, and high-quality ingredients recurring themes in all communications. This reinforces trust and differentiates from competitors who use proprietary blends.
• •Be Unapologetically Confident, Not Condescending: The tone should exude belief in the products' superiority due to their formulation. However, ensure this confidence doesn't morph into language that belittles customers or potential customers (e.g., avoid phrases that suggest someone isn't a "true fan" for specific purchase habits).
• •Show, Don't Just Tell, the "Hardcore" Lifestyle: Utilize visuals and user-generated content that reflect the intense training and dedication of your target audience. Let athlete endorsements and real-world results speak to the brand's effectiveness, reinforcing the "by athletes, for athletes" mantra.
