Brand Tone

friendly, uplifting, relatable, and empathetic. It often incorporates humor (especially a lighthearted, sarcastic, or self-deprecating style related to everyday struggles and joys) and a strong sense of community and support. The language used is informal, approachable, and positive. There's a conversational style that makes the brand feel accessible.

Brand Values

• •Positivity and Empowerment: Spreading joy, encouragement, and self-belief through their products and interactions.
• •Relatability and Authenticity: Connecting with customers through shared experiences, humor, and genuine expression.
• •Community and Connection: Fostering a supportive environment where customers feel seen and understood.
• •Appreciation and Recognition: Highlighting and celebrating professions (like teachers, nurses) and life stages (like motherhood).
• •Self-Care and Mental Well-being: Promoting messages of self-kindness, mental health awareness, and the importance of taking a break.

Best Practices

• •Create a "Voice Guide": Develop a simple document outlining key characteristics of the brand voice (e.g., "friendly, not formal," "use emojis to convey emotion," "incorporate relatable humor"). Include "do's and don'ts" and examples.
• •Speak Your Customer's Language: Pay attention to how your target audience communicates (the slang they use, the jokes they make, the concerns they share). Reflect this authentically in your copy, making the brand feel like a friend.
• •Prioritize Positivity and Empathy: Even when using humor or addressing struggles, ensure the underlying message is supportive and uplifting. The copy should make people feel understood and good about interacting with the brand.
• •Be Consistent Across All Platforms: While the format might change (e.g., TikTok video vs. Instagram caption), the core tone and values should remain consistent. Someone interacting with The Printing B on any platform should get the same friendly, uplifting vibe.
• •Encourage Engagement and Conversation: Write copy that invites interaction. Ask questions, run polls, and respond to comments in the brand's established tone. This reinforces the community aspect and makes the brand more personable.

Social Perception

positive, relatable, and inspiring brand. Customers connect with the messages on the products and appreciate the sense of community the brand fosters. It's seen as a source for cute, trendy items that also carry a meaningful or humorous message. The focus on specific niches (like "teacher life" or "mental health advocacy") helps create a loyal following within those communities. Users often tag friends in posts, indicating they find the content shareable and relevant to their social circles. The brand is viewed as more than just a product seller; it’s a provider of items that help people express themselves and feel good.
