Brand Tone

approachable, enthusiastic, and authentic. It balances a knowledgeable voice about streetwear culture with a friendly and community-oriented feel. Their language is casual and uses current slang ("slay," "plug"). On social media, the tone is energetic and participatory, often involving followers in challenges and conversations. In customer service interactions, the tone shifts to be exceptionally helpful, responsive, and personal.

Brand Values

• •Authenticity
• •Customer-Centricity
• •Community
• •Accessibility & Value
• •Passion

Best Practices

• •Stay True to the Culture: Use language that is authentic to the streetwear scene, but avoid overusing slang to the point of being unrelatable or forced. The key is to sound like a knowledgeable friend, not a corporation trying to be cool.
• •Prioritize Community Engagement: Actively respond to comments, feature user-generated content (like customer unboxings), and continue creating interactive content like quizzes and polls. This reinforces the brand's community value.
• •Balance Hype with Helpfulness: While the brand name is "Hyped Economy," the most praised aspect is its customer service. Ensure the copy reflects this duality. Be enthusiastic and exciting in marketing materials, but clear, helpful, and reassuring in transactional or support-related communications.
• •Highlight Authenticity and Trust: Consistently mention the authenticity guarantee in product descriptions, FAQs, and even social media posts. In a market where fakes are common, this is a powerful and necessary message.
• •Empower the Team's Voice: The staff's passion and knowledge are major assets. Encourage them to be voices for the brand on social media (with guidance), perhaps through "Staff Picks" or "Meet the Team" content, to further humanize the brand and leverage their praised expertise.

Social Perception

Hyped Economy is perceived very positively by its customers and the online community. It is seen as a legitimate and trustworthy source for authentic, high-demand streetwear. The excellent customer service is a major differentiator that has earned them significant praise and customer loyalty. The brand is viewed as being run by genuine enthusiasts who care about their customers, rather than a faceless corporation. The physical store in Bristol's Cabot Circus enhances their credibility and provides a tangible touchpoint for the community. Their success is often framed as an aspirational story of young entrepreneurs achieving their goals.
