Best Practices

• •Develop a Core Messaging Guide: Document key brand phrases, value propositions, and the specific emotional response you want to evoke. Refer to this for all content creation. (e.g., always link back to "performance," "style," and "sustainability").
• •Prioritize Active Language: Use strong verbs and an active voice to convey energy, movement, and confidence, aligning with the athletic nature of the brand. (e.g., "Conquer the miles," "Elevate your run," instead of "Our gear can be used for...")
• •Balance Aspiration with Attainability: Inspire customers to achieve their best, but ensure the tone remains relatable and not intimidating. Highlight both peak performance and everyday comfort/style.
• •Incorporate Values Naturally: Weave in mentions of sustainability, quality, and performance seamlessly within product descriptions, social content, and storytelling, rather than just stating them as facts. Show, don't just tell.
• •Listen to and Reflect Customer Voice (where appropriate): Incorporate language and sentiments from positive customer reviews (ethically) into marketing copy to build authenticity and resonate with the target audience. If customers consistently praise "lightweight comfort" and "stylish design," echo these attributes.

Social Perception

Positive Customer Feedback, Niche but Growing, Credible (within its sphere), Limited Broader Awareness
