Best Practices

• •Develop a "Sassy" Lexicon: Create a list of on-brand words and phrases (e.g., "salty," "reel," "waves," "fierce," "hooked," playful puns) and consistently incorporate them into your copy. Avoid overly technical jargon unless explaining product features where necessary.
• •Embrace Storytelling: Share stories of women enjoying the saltwater lifestyle (real customer features are great for this). Highlight the adventure, the fun, and the confidence that comes with it, tying it back to the apparel.
• •Engage Playfully: When responding to comments and messages on social media, maintain the sassy, friendly, and approachable tone. Use emojis and humor where appropriate, reinforcing the brand's personality.
• •Visuals Must Match the Vibe: Ensure all imagery (product photos, lifestyle shots, graphics) reflects the adventurous, confident, and vibrant tone of the copy. Bright, energetic visuals of women actively enjoying the outdoors will reinforce the brand message.
• •Consistency Across All Channels: Whether it's a website banner, an email newsletter, a Facebook post, or an Instagram caption, the tone should feel cohesive and instantly recognizable as Saltwater Sassy. Regularly review content to ensure it aligns with the established brand voice.
