Best Practices

• •Develop a Unified Brand Voice Guide: Document the key characteristics of your brand voice (e.g., professional, helpful, reassuring, aspirational) and share it across all teams involved in content creation (marketing, customer service, sales). Include approved terminology and phrases to avoid.
• •Prioritize Clarity and Information: Ensure all copy, from product descriptions to FAQs, is clear, concise, accurate, and provides all necessary information a customer might need. Avoid jargon where possible, or explain it clearly. This reinforces the "helpful and informative" aspect of the tone.
• •Emphasize Benefits alongside Features: While listing features (e.g., "pressure-treated timber") is important, always connect them to the direct benefit for the customer (e.g., "...ensuring years of protection against rot and decay, saving you time and money on maintenance"). This makes the copy more aspirational and customer-centric.
• •Maintain Professionalism in All Communications: This includes timely and courteous responses to customer inquiries, comments on social media, and reviews (both positive and negative). Addressing concerns professionally helps reinforce trust and the "customer-oriented" value, even when dealing with issues.
• •Use High-Quality Visuals Consistently: Ensure that all imagery and video content used alongside copy aligns with the brand's quality proposition and aspirational tone. Professional, well-lit photos of products in attractive settings support the written message and enhance perception.
