• •Integrity & Honesty
• •Health & Wellness
• •Ethical & Natural Sourcing
• •Affordability (for the quality)
• •Challenging Conventional Norms

Best Practices

• •Educate, Don't Just Sell: Emphasize the "why" behind the products. Explain the benefits of grass-fed, the problems with conventional farming, and the nutritional advantages. This reinforces the authoritative and educational aspects of the tone.
• •Be Uncompromising on Quality in Language: Use strong, confident language that reflects the high quality of the products. Words like "premium," "uncompromising," "nutrient-dense," "ancestral," "ethically raised," and "transparently sourced" should be staples.
• •Maintain a Direct and Honest Voice: Address potential customer concerns proactively where possible (e.g., explaining sourcing in detail). While the brand aims for this, ensuring consistency, especially in customer service communications, is crucial to bridge the gap noted in some reviews. The mission statement's directness is a good benchmark.
• •Show, Don't Just Tell (Leverage Visuals & Stories): While this is a copywriting best practice, the copy should prompt and align with visual storytelling. Encourage user-generated content (like unboxing videos) and share stories of the farms, the animals (where appropriate and ethical), and the founder's passion to reinforce the passionate and transparent values.
• •Develop a "Frankie's Lexicon": Create a list of on-brand words and phrases, as well as those to avoid. For example, embrace terms like "ancestral," "nutrient-dense," "pasture-raised," "beyond organic," "ethically sourced." Avoid generic health buzzwords without specific backing or overly complex scientific jargon that might alienate. Ensure this lexicon is understood by anyone creating content.

Social Perception

A segment of customers is deeply loyal, viewing Frankie's as a trusted source for high-quality, nutrient-dense meats that are hard to find elsewhere, aligning with specific dietary lifestyles (e.g., animal-based, paleo, carnivore). Another segment has experienced significant issues with customer service, delivery, and sometimes product condition upon arrival, creating a perception of unreliability for some. The brand strongly appeals to a specific health-conscious demographic interested in ancestral diets, regenerative agriculture principles and avoiding mainstream food system pitfalls. The brand is closely tied to Frank Tufano, whose personal online presence and direct involvement are visible.
