Best Practices

• •Always Lead with the Story: Every piece of copy should, where possible, connect back to the brand's core narrative Gthe bus, the journey, adventure, and handcrafted passion. This is your strongest differentiator.
• •Use "Heartfelt & Adventurous" Language: Incorporate words like "journey," "adventure," "soul," "wander," "freedom," "handcrafted," and "story" to reinforce the brand's tone and values consistently.
• •Speak from the Founder's Voice: Write in the first person ("I," "We," "My") to maintain the personal, authentic connection Brandi has established. Make customers feel like they are hearing directly from the creator.
• •Highlight the "Handmade" Aspect: Continuously emphasize that products are "hand-stamped," "hand-burned," and "handcrafted." This communicates quality, uniqueness, and the artistic value of the items.
• •Weave in Social Proof: Leverage your excellent reviews. Incorporate phrases like "our customer-favorite," "a top-rated gift," or direct quotes into your copy to build trust and validate the quality and appeal of your products for new customers.

Social Perception

Overwhelmingly positive, perceived as high-quality, beautiful, gift-worthy, with excellent customer service and a strong, memorable brand story.
