Best Practices

• •Emphasize Authenticity & Quality Clearly: Consistently highlight the use of authentic Japanese fabrics and US-grown cotton, while being transparent about where items are crafted (e.g., Covers handcrafted in Massachusetts using fabrics imported from Japan). This addresses potential confusion and builds trust.
• •Weave in Cultural Storytelling: Subtly integrate aspects of Japanese culture, aesthetics (like minimalism, wabi-sabi), and the benefits of the lifestyle (mindfulness, connection to nature) into product descriptions and marketing content.
• •Focus on Sensory Details & Craftsmanship: Use descriptive language that evokes the feel of the fabrics, the quality of the stitching, and the comfort of the products. Words like handcrafted, pure cotton, vibrant textiles, meticulous reinforce quality.
• •Maintain a Respectful and Appreciative Tone: Ensure the language always conveys respect for Japanese culture and the traditions that inspire the products. Avoid clichés or superficial portrayals.
• •Address Concerns Proactively through Clarity: Given the mixed reviews regarding authenticity and origin, use copy to clearly define what Japanese-style means for the brand (e.g., inspired by Japanese design, using traditional fabric types, made to US specifications). Highlight the Made in USA aspect of cover production and futon filling as a point of pride and quality control.

Social Perception

Divided: Some customers are satisfied, appreciating the Japanese aesthetic and quality, while others are disappointed, citing quality concerns and confusion about the origin of the products.
