Best Practices

• •Know Your Roots, Share Your Story: Regularly weave in elements of your long-standing heritage and family-run nature (since 1909). This builds trust and a sense of tradition. Authenticity is key.
• •Speak Like a Passionate, Knowledgeable Friend: Use warm, inviting, and enthusiastic language. Imagine you're talking to a fellow cooking enthusiast who trusts your expertise. Share your excitement for products and the joy of cooking.
• •Highlight Community Connection: Actively mention your local involvement in Hockley, address your customers as part of the "Potters family," and tailor communications to foster that local bond, even when speaking to a wider online audience.
• •Emphasize Quality and Expertise, Gently: While being friendly and approachable, subtly reinforce the quality of your products (stocking reputable brands) and the knowledge of your staff. Offer helpful tips, advice, and product insights within your copy.
• •Be Visually Consistent with Your Words: Ensure your imagery, videos (especially on platforms like Instagram and TikTok), and overall design on your website and social media reflect the same friendly, quality-conscious, traditional-yet-modern, and community-oriented feel as your written copy. Your acclaimed window displays are a great example of this in the physical realm.
