Best Practices

• •Develop a Brand Voice Guide: Document the key elements of ROCKaBLOCK's tone (empowering, inspiring, innovative, community-oriented, authentic, witty) with examples of 'do's and don'ts.' This ensures anyone writing copy understands the desired voice.
• •Always Circle Back to Core Values: Ensure all copy, whether for product descriptions, social media, or ads, reflects the brand's commitment to celebrating Black culture, racial equity, storytelling, quality, and innovation. Let these values guide the messaging.
• •Embrace Storytelling: Integrate narratives into the copy. Share the inspiration behind designs, the stories of figures represented, or the impact the brand aims to make. This aligns with the founder's intent to make apparel a conversation starter.
• •Be Authentic and Passionate: The founder's passion is a key driver of the brand. Copy should reflect this genuine enthusiasm and commitment to the mission. Avoid overly corporate or generic language.
• •Engage and Interact (Even in Static Copy): Use questions, calls to action that invite dialogue (e.g., 'What story will you tell?'), and language that makes the audience feel part of the ROCKaBLOCK movement and community.
