Brand Tone

Authoritative, Passionate, and Community-Centric. The tone is that of a seasoned, local expert who is deeply passionate about fishing, friendly, encouraging, and uses colloquial language, providing specific, actionable advice.

Brand Values

• •Local Expertise
• •Community Engagement
• •Quality and Trust
• •Customer Service Excellence
• •Passion for Angling

Best Practices

• •Always anchor advice and product recommendations in the context of specific, local fishing spots (e.g., Double Island Point, Tin Can Bay, Fraser Island surf gutters). This continually reinforces your primary value proposition.
• •Continue using authentic, local slang and terminology like "fishos," "cracker of a fish," "greenbacks," and "getting smoked in the snags." This builds rapport and demonstrates you are part of the fishing community, not just a seller to it.
• •Make customer-submitted photos and stories a cornerstone of your social media strategy. This validates your customers' passion, fosters loyalty, and provides authentic social proof.
• •In all communications, from responding to Facebook comments to writing blog posts, ensure the tone is educational and empowering. Frame content around solving a problem or teaching a skill for the angler.
• •Follow an 80/20 rule for content: 80% should be about the passion of fishing (tips, reports, community catches, educational content) and 20% can be direct product promotion. This ensures the brand remains a trusted resource rather than just a retail outlet.
