Best Practices

• •Always Weave in "Why": Connect product descriptions and promotional content back to the core values of sustainability, uniqueness, and community. Explain *why* preloved is special or *why* supporting handmade matters.
• •Use Warm and Inclusive Language: Employ a friendly, welcoming tone. Words like "we," "our," "yours," "share," and "community" reinforce the brand's inclusive nature. Make customers feel like part of a shared passion.
• •Highlight the Story/Journey: Whether it's the story of a preloved item finding a new home or the story of a local artisan, storytelling adds depth and emotional connection. Phrases like "ready for its next chapter" or "crafted with care" enhance this.
• •Be Authentic and Transparent: When describing preloved items, be honest about their condition while emphasizing their charm and value. Authenticity builds trust, which is crucial for a brand focused on conscious consumerism.
• •Maintain an Appreciative and Positive Voice: Express gratitude to customers for choosing sustainable options and supporting the brand's mission. Keep the overall messaging optimistic and focused on the positive impact of their shopping choices.
