Best Practices

• •Always End with Encouragement: Conclude social media posts, blog articles, and even customer service interactions with positive and encouraging phrases like "Happy Growing!" or "We can't wait to see what you grow!" This reinforces the brand's supportive and friendly tone.
• •Lead with Knowledge, Follow with Aspiration: Structure content to first provide a useful fact or tip (the knowledgeable part), and then connect it to the beautiful or delicious outcome the customer can achieve (the aspirational part).
• •Use "You" and "Your" to Empower: Frame copy around the customer's journey and their garden. Using language like "Your garden," "You can grow," and "Imagine your harvest" makes the message personal and empowering.
• •Maintain a Unified Vocabulary: Consistently use keywords that reflect brand values, such as "heirloom," "non-GMO," "sustainably sourced," "natural," "community," and "grow your own." This builds a strong, recognizable brand identity.
• •Be Visually and Textually Cohesive: Ensure that the tone of the copy matches the visual aesthetic. The fresh, vibrant, and natural look of the brand's photography should be mirrored by clean, positive, and inspiring language. Avoid overly technical jargon unless it is explained in a simple, accessible way.

Social Perception

The public perception of The Seed Store is largely positive among its target audience of Indian home gardeners. It is seen as a credible and valuable resource for high-quality, non-GMO, and heirloom seeds. Gardeners appreciate the variety of seeds offered. However, there is a recurring issue regarding customer service with slow response times and difficulties with returns. Additionally, the brand is sometimes confused with a clothing store with a similar name. Overall, customers perceive the brand as a specialist and reliable provider for serious hobbyist gardeners.
