Best Practices

• •Immerse in the Lore: Consistently use language, metaphors, and references drawn from Viking history, Norse mythology, and sagas. This demonstrates authenticity and passion.
• •Emphasize Strength and Heritage: Frame product descriptions and brand messaging around concepts of power, resilience, honor, and connection to ancestral roots.
• •Speak to the "Inner Viking": Address the customer as someone who shares a deep connection or aspiration towards Viking ideals. Use inclusive language like "we," "us," and "fellow warriors" when appropriate.
• •Maintain Visual-Textual Harmony: Ensure that the copy complements the dark, often powerful, and symbolic imagery used on the website and social media. The words should evoke the same feelings as the visuals.
• •Be Respectful and Evocative, Not Gimmicky: While the theme is strong, avoid clichés or overly theatrical language that could undermine the perceived authenticity. Aim for evocative and respectful storytelling that resonates with genuine enthusiasts.
