• •Comfort (aspirational)
• •Customer Satisfaction (aspirational)

Best Practices

• •Develop a Brand Voice Guide: Even a simple one. Document your core tone words (e.g., "Playful," "Witty," "Passionate," "Approachable"), things to do (e.g., "Use emojis sparingly," "Speak directly to the customer"), and things to avoid (e.g., "Overly formal language," "Generic statements").
• •Focus on "You" (The Customer): Frame your copy around the customer's desires, passions, and how the products benefit them or allow them to express themselves. Instead of "We sell t-shirts," try "Find the t-shirt that tells your story."
• •Inject Personality into Product Descriptions: Don't just list features. Briefly highlight the feeling, the humor, or the statement the design makes. Let the brand's expressive nature shine through.
• •Maintain Consistency Across All Touchpoints: Ensure the tone used on the website (product pages, About Us, FAQ) matches the tone in emails, any social media, and customer service interactions (especially important given current feedback). This builds trust and a cohesive brand experience.
• •Listen and Adapt (Especially with Customer Service): While maintaining a generally positive and approachable tone, ensure that customer service copy is also empathetic and solution-oriented, particularly when addressing concerns about product quality or shipping. The tone should reflect the brand's values of customer satisfaction, even when things go wrong. Acknowledge issues with the same approachable tone, but with added sincerity and a focus on resolution.

Social Perception

The brand is perceived as an online retailer offering a very wide variety of graphic apparel, but with inconsistencies in execution (quality, shipping, service) that affect its overall reputation. The core appeal lies in the breadth of designs allowing for niche self-expression.
