Best Practices

• •Always Emphasize Passion for Cycling: Whether it's a technical post or a sales announcement, let the genuine enthusiasm for cycling shine through. Use evocative language that speaks to the joy and freedom of riding.
• •Showcase Expertise, Don't Just State It: Instead of saying 'we are experts,' demonstrate it through detailed product descriptions, helpful tips, 'how-to' content, and highlighting specialized services like postural analysis or custom builds.
• •Speak the Local Language (Literally and Figuratively): Continue using French as the primary language for the local audience. Reference local landmarks, events, or cycling conditions to strengthen the community connection (e.g., 'perfect for the Pilat trails').
• •Be Approachable and Inclusive: Even when discussing high-performance gear, ensure the language is welcoming to cyclists of all levels. Avoid overly technical jargon without explanation. Encourage questions and interaction.
• •Adapt to the Platform, Maintain Core Values: While the tone on TikTok might be more playful and fast-paced than a detailed blog post, the underlying values of passion, expertise, and community should remain consistent. Ensure all content aligns with the brand's identity.
