Best Practices

• •Create a Brand Voice Guide: Document the brand's personality, tone words (e.g., nurturing, playful, trustworthy), "words we use," and "words we avoid." This ensures everyone writing for the brand is on the same page.
• •Know Your Audience Deeply: Understand the concerns, aspirations, and language of parents of young children. Tailor the copy to resonate with their needs and values.
• •Prioritize Storytelling: Share the "why" behind the brand – the inspiration from Bas, the commitment to sustainability, the joy of parenthood. This creates an emotional connection.
• •Emphasize Benefits, Not Just Features: Instead of just saying "BPA-free silicone," explain *why* that matters: "Safe for your little one, easy for you to clean, and kind to the planet."
• •Maintain Consistency Across All Channels: Ensure the tone used on the website matches social media, email marketing, and any customer service interactions. Regular audits can help maintain this consistency.

Social Perception

The brand presents itself as a thoughtful and curated source for parents looking for quality, sustainable, and developmentally appropriate items for their children.
