Brand Tone

Authentic, personal, and nurturing, with a warm, inviting, and narrative-driven voice. It uses emotive language (love, passion, magical, heart), shares personal anecdotes, and educates, avoiding jargon to foster community.

Brand Values

• •Authenticity and Transparency
• •Sustainability and Slow Living
• •Support for Local and Small-Scale Production
• •Passion for Craft
• •Connection to Nature and Animals

Best Practices

• •Lead with the Story: Always connect the product back to the farm, the sheep, or the natural dyeing process. The narrative of "Gladsheim Farm" and its "happy home" is the brand's strongest asset.
• •Use Sensory and Emotive Language: Words like "squishy," "soft," "vibrant," "magical," and "love" evoke the tactile and emotional experience of working with the yarn. Use descriptive language that brings the farm and the crafting process to life.
• •Maintain a Personal and Authentic Voice: Write as Jules, the owner. Use "I" and "we" to maintain a personal connection. Share behind-the-scenes moments, from shearing day to experiments with new plant dyes. This reinforces transparency and authenticity.
• •Emphasize the "Why" Behind the "What": Don't just sell yarn; sell the values it represents. Talk about the importance of supporting local wool producers, the beauty of natural processes, and the joy of creating heirloom pieces.
• •Educate and Share Passion: Use product descriptions and social media posts as opportunities to share knowledge about different wool breeds, the benefits of natural fibers, or how to care for hand-washed garments. This positions the brand as a knowledgeable and passionate leader in the craft community.

Social Perception

Highly positive, seen as a high-quality, artisanal brand with unique products and a compelling story. Customers feel a strong connection due to its transparency and personal narrative, especially appreciating the 'sheep specific' yarn. It is viewed as a genuine small business deeply rooted in a love for the craft, resonating strongly within the fiber arts community.
