Best Practices

• •Develop a Core Messaging Document: Clearly define the brand's voice (e.g., "sophisticated yet approachable," "luxurious but grounded in craftsmanship"), key descriptive words (e.g., exquisite, artisanal, timeless, radiant, bespoke), and "words to avoid" (e.g., cheap, mass-produced, trendy [in a fleeting sense]). This serves as a guide for all content creators.
• •Prioritize "Show, Don't Just Tell": Instead of saying "we use high-quality materials," describe them: "Indulge in the cloud-like softness of our ethically sourced Mongolian cashmere," or "Each Swarovski crystal is meticulously hand-applied by our artisans to catch the light with every movement."
• •Emphasize the "Why" Behind the "What": Connect product features to the brand's values and the customer's desires. For example, link the artisanal craftsmanship not just to the product's beauty, but to the value of uniqueness and supporting skilled craftspeople. Explain *why* a piece is a "go-to"—because of its versatility, the confidence it inspires, or its timeless appeal.
• •Maintain Consistency Across All Touchpoints: Ensure the tone used on the website (product descriptions, 'About Us' page) aligns with any social media posts (even if limited), email marketing, press releases, and packaging. This reinforces the brand identity. For Carolyn Rowan, this means carrying the luxurious and artisanal feel from the product itself to its online description.
• •Tell the Founder's Story and Brand Philosophy: Weave in elements of Carolyn Rowan's journey, her design inspiration, and the brand's commitment to "wearable luxury" and filling a niche. This adds authenticity and a personal touch to the luxury, making the brand more relatable and its values more tangible. Phrases like "It's liberating to be able to change your whole outfit just by alternating a few accessories" can be powerful.
