Empathetic, Supportive, Relatable, Authentic, Community-Focused, Inclusive, Informative, Helpful, Positive, and Uplifting

Brand Values

• •Community: Fostering a sense of belonging and mutual support among military spouses and families.
• •Understanding & Empathy: Recognizing and validating the unique experiences and emotional landscape of military life.
• •Support: Providing resources, a listening ear, and a platform for shared advice.
• •Authenticity: Being genuine and relatable, speaking from a place of lived experience.
• •Resilience: Highlighting the strength and adaptability inherent in military families.
• •Connection: Helping individuals feel less isolated by connecting them with others who share similar experiences.

Best Practices

• •Know Your Audience Deeply: Always write as if you're speaking to a friend within the military community. Understand their specific jargon (or avoidance thereof), their pain points, their joys, and their sense of humor.
• •Develop a "Voice Persona": Imagine the brand as a person. Is she the supportive best friend? The slightly sarcastic but ultimately loving sister? The wise mentor? Defining this persona helps keep the tone consistent across all communications. For this brand, it's likely the empathetic, been-there-done-that friend.
• •Use "We" and "You" Language: Focus on creating a dialogue. "We" fosters community ("We understand," "We're here for you"), and "You" speaks directly to the individual's experience.
• •Prioritize Empathy and Authenticity: Every piece of copy should stem from a place of genuine understanding. Share real stories (with permission), acknowledge struggles honestly, and celebrate triumphs authentically. Avoid overly corporate or emotionally detached language.
• •Create a Simple Style Guide: Include key phrases, words to use/avoid, the desired emotional impact of the copy, and examples of on-brand and off-brand messaging. This is especially helpful if multiple people are creating content. For example:Use: "Resilience," "community," "support," "we get it," "you've got this," relatable humor. Avoid: Clinical language, overly formal tones, minimizing challenges, clichés unless used with a knowing wink to the community.
