Best Practices

• •Lead with the Story: Always start with the human element. Whether it's the producer's multi-generational history, the traditional method, or the specific region of origin, make the story the hero of the copy.
• •Use Evocative, Sensory Language: Instead of just "tasty," use words like "rich," "creamy," "sun-ripened," "hand-crafted," "bronze-cut," and "aromatic." Connect the products to the experience of eating in Italy.
• •Emphasize Authenticity and Origin: Consistently use phrases like "100% Made in Italy," "artisanal," "small-batch," and "family-owned." Reinforce the brand's core mission to fight "Italian Sounding."
• •Adopt the "Trusted Friend" Persona: Write in a warm, advisory, and passionate voice. Frame content as sharing a wonderful secret or offering expert advice rather than just selling a product. Use "we" to build a sense of community.
• •Maintain Visual and Verbal Harmony: Ensure the high-quality, authentic feel of the copy is matched by the visuals. Use genuine photos of the producers, the Italian landscape, and beautifully styled but realistic-looking food. The design should feel as premium and story-rich as the words.
