Best Practices

• •Always Lead with the Problem: Start your copy by acknowledging the customer's frustration (e.g., "Tired of messes?" "Does your dog's aim need help?"). This shows empathy and immediately makes the solution more compelling.
• •Tell the "Rocky" Story: Weave the authentic origin story into your marketing whenever possible. Phrases like "Born from a real-life mess" or "Created by a frustrated dog dad" build trust and make the brand memorable.
• •Use a "We Get It" Tone: Write as a fellow pet owner, not a corporation. Use conversational, friendly, and simple language. Ask questions and use phrases that show you understand their daily struggles.
• •Showcase the Community: Feature user-generated content, testimonials, and customer photos prominently. Use phrases like "Join the thousands of happy pups" or "See what other dog owners are saying" to leverage social proof.
• •Focus on the Benefit, Not Just the Feature: Instead of just saying "built-in hydrant," say "a hydrant that gives him something to aim for, saving your walls." Instead of "absorbent layers," say "absorbent layers that mean no leaks and easy cleanup." Connect every feature to a direct, positive outcome for the customer.
