Best Practices

• •Lead with Expertise, Follow with Friendliness: Start by confidently stating your skill or the quality of your service, then soften it with approachable language. (e.g., "Precision sharpening for every blade, brought to you with a smile.")
• •Emphasize "Local" and "Community": Regularly mention Brooklyn, Greenpoint, Williamsburg, and local partnerships. Use inclusive language like "your neighborhood," "our community."
• •Be Helpful and Informative: Share tips, explain your process simply, and be transparent about services and locations, just as they do on their website and in Reddit responses.
• •Show, Don't Just Tell, Your Passion: Instead of just saying you're passionate, let it come through in descriptions of the craft, the care taken with each knife, and the quality of the tools you sell.
• •Maintain a Consistent Visual and Verbal Style on Social Media: Use similar types of imagery (clear, well-lit photos of knives, the truck, the process) and maintain the expert yet approachable tone in captions and replies across all platforms.
