Best Practices

• •Create a Brand Voice Chart: Develop a simple chart outlining your core tone (e.g., Adventurous, Friendly, Inspiring) and list "Do's" and "Don'ts" for language. For example, Do: Use active voice, evocative verbs, and inclusive language. Don't: Use overly technical jargon without explanation, be condescending, or sound generic.
• •Focus on the Experience, Not Just Specs: While product features are important, weave them into a narrative about the experience they enable. Instead of "Waterproof up to 5000mm," try "Stay dry and cozy through downpours on your mountain trek, thanks to its 5000mm waterproof rating."
• •Speak to Your Audience Like a Fellow Enthusiast: Use language that resonates with outdoor lovers. Share their excitement and understand their needs and aspirations. Maintain an authentic, conversational style.
• •Use Storytelling: Share stories of adventure – whether from your team or (with permission) your customers. Stories create emotional connections and make the brand more relatable.
• •Maintain Consistency Across All Channels: Ensure your website copy, social media posts, email marketing, and even customer service interactions all reflect the same brand tone and values. Regular internal reviews of content can help maintain this consistency.
