Best Practices

• •Always infuse the copy with the core concept of "Piquete"confidence, swagger, and authentic Puerto Rican style. Use confident and bold language.
• •Consistently tell the brand's origin story. Mention that it's a family recipe, started in 2020, and rooted in tradition. This builds trust and emotional connection.
• •Emphasize the "100% natural ingredients" and "no vinegar" aspects in product descriptions, ads, and health-focused content. This is a key differentiator.
• •Use the founder's personal story and a passionate, first-person narrative ("I," "We") in blog posts, newsletters, and "About Us" content to maintain a personal and authentic feel.
• •When describing the product, always balance the discussion of heat with the promise of enhanced flavor. Reassure customers that Piketú complements meals, using phrases like "adds a delicious kick" or "enhances the flavor" to appeal to a broader audience beyond just chili-heads.
