Brand Tone

aspirational, sophisticated, and modern

Brand Values

• •Style & Aesthetics
• •Modern Functionality
• •Elevated Essentials
• •Perceived Quality

Best Practices

• •Use Evocative, Sensory Language: Instead of just listing features, describe the experience. Use words like "satisfying click," "precision flame," "cool-to-the-touch metal," and "unmistakable design" to create a premium feel.
• •Focus on the "Why," Not Just the "What": The customer isn't just buying a lighter; they're buying a piece of their personal identity. Frame the copy around what the product says about them—that they are sophisticated, prepared, and have an eye for detail.
• •Maintain a Consistent Lexicon: Create a list of on-brand words (e.g., "precision," "iconic," "crafted," "essential," "statement") and off-brand words (e.g., "cheap," "deal," "fast," "sale"). Ensure all copy, from ads to product descriptions, adheres to this lexicon.
• •Align Messaging with Customer Experience: The aspirational tone can only succeed if the customer experience matches it. Before scaling marketing, it is crucial to address the underlying issues of shipping and product quality mentioned in reviews. The most eloquent copy will fail if the brand's promises are not met.
• •Develop a Narrative for Each Product: Give each lighter a personality and a story. "The Inferno" is for the bold adventurer. "The Vesper" is for the sleek urban professional. Use storytelling in product descriptions to help customers connect with the items on a deeper level.

Social Perception

The brand aims to be seen as a purveyor of high-end, stylish men's accessories. However, a notable segment of customers perceives the brand negatively, with common themes including accusations of being a dropshipping business, long shipping times, poor customer service, and product quality not meeting sophisticated marketing.
