Brand Tone

Aspirational & Quality-Focused, Friendly & Community-Oriented, Informative & Helpful, Enthusiastic & Inviting, Slightly Playful & Modern

Brand Values

• •Quality & Freshness
• •Variety & Selection
• •Customer Experience
• •Community Engagement
• •Value (beyond just price)

Best Practices

• •Develop a Tone of Voice Guide: Document the key characteristics of your brand's voice (e.g., aspirational, friendly, informative) with examples of do's and don'ts. Share this with everyone who creates content.
• •Focus on "Wholesome Indulgence": Use language that conveys both high quality and the joy of good food. Words like "fresh," "vibrant," "delicious," "premium," "crafted," "discover," and "savour" can be frequently used.
• •Emphasize Freshness and Sourcing: Consistently highlight where products come from (if notable, e.g., "Australian Lamb," "Cameron Highlands Greens") and their freshness ("just picked," "baked this morning").
• •Engage and Inspire: Ask questions, encourage sharing of experiences or recipes, and position Village Grocer as a partner in the customer's culinary journey and lifestyle. Use evocative language that appeals to the senses.
• •Maintain Visual-Copy Cohesion: Ensure that the tone of the copy aligns with the style of photography and videography used. Bright, clean, and appetizing visuals should be paired with equally appealing and positive language. Regularly review social media comments and customer feedback to ensure the tone resonates well and adjust if necessary.
