Best Practices

• •Always Emphasize "Community" and "Local": Consistently reference being a local, family-owned business rooted in the Kentlands/Gaithersburg community. Use phrases like "your local kitchen store," "supporting our community," "Kentlands' favorite."
• •Maintain a Warm, Friendly, and Approachable Voice: Use contractions (e.g., "we're," "it's"), welcoming language, and address the customer directly (e.g., "you," "your"). Avoid overly formal or technical jargon unless explaining a specific product benefit clearly.
• •Highlight Quality and Passion, Not Just Products: Instead of just listing features, explain *why* a product is good, how it enhances the cooking experience, or share the passion behind its selection. Connect products to the joy and creativity of cooking.
• •Incorporate a Helpful, Service-Oriented Angle: Regularly mention the knowledgeable staff, willingness to help, and services like gift wrapping or cooking classes. Frame interactions as opportunities to assist and share expertise.
• •Be Visually Consistent with Tone: Ensure that the imagery used alongside copy (especially on social media and the website) reflects the same warmth, quality, and passion. Bright, appealing photos of products in use, happy customers (if appropriate and with permission), and inviting store scenes will reinforce the written tone.

Social Perception

Positive Local Reputation, Go-To for Specific Needs, Appreciation for "Shop Local", Helpful Staff
