Best Practices

• •Develop a "Brand Voice Bible": Create an internal document that explicitly defines HIDDEN CULT's tone (e.g., "Confident, not Arrogant"; "Exclusive, but Welcoming to the 'Cult'"). Include lists of "words we use" and "words we avoid." This ensures everyone writing for the brand is aligned.
• •Embrace the "Hidden Gem, Cult Favourite" Duality: Consistently weave in language that reflects both the exclusivity ("limited," "exclusive design," "inner circle") and the community aspect ("by the cult, for the cult," "you asked, we listened," "join the cult").
• •Highlight Exclusivity & Quality Details: In product descriptions and posts, don't just say it's "high quality"; specify *why*. Mention the custom-developed fabrics, in-house design process, and attention to detail that sets them apart from mass-produced items.
• •Maintain a Confident and Slightly Edgy Stance: Use strong verbs and direct language. Avoid overly soft or generic phrasing. The copy should feel as bold and unique as the clothing designs themselves. Reflect the "redefining streetwear" mission.
• •Engage Authentically with the Community on Social Media: When responding to comments or creating interactive content (like asking for feedback on TikTok), maintain the established brand voice. Be direct, appreciative of the "cult," and reinforce the brand's values of listening to its community. Avoid generic corporate responses.
