Best Practices

• •Use Direct, Simple Language: Avoid jargon, overly complicated sentences, or flowery prose. Get straight to the point. Think 'man-to-man talk.'
• •Emphasize Masculine Attributes (Subtly or Directly): Use words and phrases that resonate with traditional masculinity – 'manly,' 'woodsy,' 'bourbon,' 'no-fuss,' 'efficient.' Ensure scents are described as non-lingering to not interfere with chosen colognes.
• •Highlight 'Made in the USA' & Quality Ingredients: Consistently mention American sourcing and the absence of undesirable chemicals (parabens, etc.) and no animal testing. This reinforces value and trustworthiness.
• •Maintain a Slight Edge/Humor (When Appropriate): Don't be afraid of a little irreverence or a relatable, slightly humorous tone, as seen in 'The Man Sac' or the brand's origin story. This makes the brand more approachable and memorable.
• •Focus on the Solution: Clearly articulate the problem your products solve (e.g., 'girly' scents, greasy lotions, inefficiency) and how 'Man Stuff' is the definitive answer for men.
