Best Practices

• •Embrace the "Bakersfield" Identity: Regularly reference the local music scene, its history (when appropriate), and the unique "Bakersfield Sound" vibe. This roots the brand and makes it distinctive.
• •Speak Like a Fellow Musician: Use language that resonates with musicians – a bit of slang, gear-specific terms (explained if necessary for a broader audience), and an understanding of their passion and challenges. Keep it enthusiastic and genuine.
• •Foster Community in Your Language: Use inclusive terms like "BS⚡️Co Fam," "music lovers," "fellow gearheads." Encourage interaction, ask questions, and highlight customer/local band successes.
• •Be Passionate and Authentic: Let the genuine love for music and the gear shine through. Avoid overly corporate or sterile language. Share the stories behind the instruments or the bands.
• •Stay Visually and Tonally Consistent: Ensure that the tone in written copy aligns with the visuals on Instagram (e.g., slightly gritty, authentic, focused on the instruments and musicians) and the vibe of the YouTube performances. This creates a cohesive brand experience.
