Best Practices

• •Emphasize Authenticity and Detail: Use precise language. For collectors, the accuracy of details (era, manufacturing, condition) is paramount. Copy should reflect this meticulousness.
• •Maintain a Respectful and Formal Tone: The subject matter (military service, history, sacrifice) demands respect. Avoid overly casual slang or flippant remarks. Professionalism should be consistent.
• •Highlight Heritage and Expertise: Leverage the company's long history (since 1968). Position the brand not just as a seller, but as a knowledgeable resource in military heraldry and history.
• •Build Trust Through Transparency: Given the mixed online reviews, new copy should subtly work to rebuild trust. This means clear communication on product pages, accessible customer service information, and transparent policies. While not directly copy, ensuring the *experience* matches the copy is crucial.
• •Be Informative and Educational: Where appropriate, provide brief historical context for items. This adds value beyond the transactional and reinforces the brand's authority and passion for the subject. This is seen in their "Articles" section on the website.

Social Perception

Seen as a source for authentic and rare military insignia, with a long history in the business. Appreciated for the breadth of items available, but also has significant concerns regarding customer service, order fulfillment, and communication for the main e-commerce business. This indicates a trust deficit among a segment of customers who have had poor experiences.
