Best Practices

• •Develop a Brand Voice Guide: Document the core characteristics of your brand's tone (e.g., Artisanal, Confident, Modern, Personal), including "words we use," "words we avoid," and example sentences for different contexts (website, social media, customer service).
• •Emphasize Storytelling: Infuse copy with the narrative of craftsmanship, individuality, and the transformative power of the boots. Share Dustin Bowen's journey and the stories behind custom designs (with client permission).
• •Highlight Uniqueness and Craftsmanship: Use vivid, sensory language to describe materials, techniques (hand-tooled, hand-painted, ethically sourced), and the bespoke nature of the products. Avoid generic descriptions.
• •Maintain a Confident & Aspirational Edge: Write copy that empowers the reader and reflects the "rockstar" feeling the boots aim to provide, while still being approachable and personal in consultations.
• •Be Consistent Across All Channels: Ensure the tone used on the website aligns with Instagram captions, TikTok content, and any news features or interviews. The core personality should shine through, even if the specific phrasing adapts to the platform.
