Brand Tone

relaxed, casual, coastal, and aspirational (evoking a desirable lifestyle)

Brand Values

• •Coastal Living: A clear appreciation for the seaside, beach culture, and relaxed pace of Cape Cod.
• •Comfort and Style: The apparel suggests a focus on comfortable clothing that is also stylish in a casual, understated way.
• •Sense of Place/Belonging: The branding appeals to those who have a connection to or admiration for Cape Cod.

Best Practices

• •Develop a Brand Voice Guide: Clearly define your brand's personality, tone words (e.g., relaxed, authentic, breezy, nostalgic, adventurous), and the "do's and don'ts" for your copy. Share this with anyone creating content.
• •Use Coastal & Evocative Language: Incorporate words and phrases that paint a picture of the Cape Cod lifestyle (e.g., "sea breeze," "sandy toes," "ocean hues," "harbor lights," "summer days").
• •Focus on Benefits & Lifestyle: Highlight how the products enhance the customer's lifestyle and evoke the feeling of being on Cape Cod, rather than just listing product features.
• •Maintain Authenticity: Ensure the language feels genuine and resonates with the true spirit of Cape Cod, avoiding clichés where possible or using them in a fresh way. Storytelling can be a powerful tool.
• •Consistency Across All Channels: Apply the defined brand tone consistently across your website, product descriptions, email marketing, social media (if developed), and any customer service interactions. This builds brand recognition and trust.

Social Perception

generally positive, associated with vacations, a desirable lifestyle, natural beauty, and often, quality products
