Best Practices

• •Always Link Product to Purpose: Never describe a product without mentioning the mission. Every piece of clothing is a tool for ocean conservation. The copy should consistently reinforce the message: "This hoodie helps save turtles," or "This t-shirt funds plastic removal."
• •Use "Movement" and "Community" Language: Frame the brand as more than a store. Use words like "join us," "be part of the movement," "our community," and "together we can" to foster a sense of belonging and collective impact.
• •Balance Urgency with Hope: While it's important to state the environmental problems clearly (the "why"), the overall message should be one of hope and empowerment. The brand offers a solution, not just a problem. The tone should be inspiring, not despairing.
• •Maintain an Authentic, Passionate Voice: The copy should sound like it was written by people who genuinely love the ocean. Use evocative and sensory language (e.g., "the deep blue," "sandy shores," "ocean breeze") to create an emotional connection.
• •Be Specific and Transparent About Impact: Whenever possible, quantify the impact. Instead of saying a purchase "helps," say it "funds the removal of 1kg of plastic" or "supports marine animal rescue." This builds credibility and makes the customer's contribution feel more tangible and real.

Social Perception

The brand is largely perceived positively as authentic and purpose-driven, with customers acting as advocates and drawn to its mission-driven appeal. However, there is a potential for confusion due to its generic name being mistaken for other larger entities.
