Brand Tone

Helpful & Informative, Value-Oriented & Direct, Established & Experienced, Customer-Centric (Aspirational)

Brand Values

• •Value/Affordability
• •Customer Satisfaction
• •Expertise/Knowledge
• •Wide Selection/Availability
• •Honesty/Transparency (Aspirational)

Best Practices

• •Prioritize "Value" and "Savings": Consistently use words like "discount," "surplus," "wholesale," "save," "deal," and "affordable" to reinforce the core offering.
• •Emphasize Experience & Expertise: Regularly mention the years in business ("since 1977") and the ability to source "hard-to-find" parts to build trust and authority.
• •Maintain a Helpful and Approachable Voice: Even when discussing technical parts, keep the language clear, direct, and focused on solving the boater's problem. Offer solutions and assistance.
• •Be Direct and Factual: Clearly state what the product is, its condition (if surplus/used), and the brands it's compatible with. Avoid overly flowery or ambiguous language.
• •Address Potential Concerns Proactively (and honestly): Given the feedback on stock issues, consider copy that manages expectations if an item is low stock or has variable shipping times, or strongly emphasizes real-time inventory if that system improves. Honesty, even about potential minor imperfections in surplus items, can build trust.

Social Perception

Generally Positive but Mixed, Frustration with Stock Accuracy and Shipping, Seen as a Source for Parts, Perceived as Knowledgeable (when service is good)
