Best Practices

• •Embrace Boldness & Conviction: Don't shy away from strong statements. Use direct, declarative sentences. The language should exude confidence in the brand's (and by extension, the customer's) beliefs.
• •Anchor in Core Values: Consistently weave in themes of faith, patriotism, truth, and resilience. Every piece of copy should, in some way, echo these foundational principles.
• •Know Your Audience's Language: Use terminology and address concerns that resonate with a conservative, patriotic, and often Christian demographic. Acknowledge their desire to be a counter-voice.
• •Maintain an "Us vs. Them" Undercurrent (Subtly or Overtly): Position the brand and its customers as standing for truth against opposing narratives ("fake news," "mainstream narrative"). This creates a sense of shared identity and purpose.
• •Call to Action with Purpose: Encourage more than just a purchase. Frame buying merchandise as joining a movement, making a statement, or supporting a cause/set of ideals. Connect the product to a larger mission.
