Best Practices

• •Develop a Brand Voice Guide: Clearly document the brand's tone (friendly, convenient, culturally connected), key messaging points, and even words/phrases to use or avoid. Share this with anyone creating content.
• •Emphasize "Connection" and "Authenticity": Consistently use language that evokes feelings of home, tradition, and genuine product quality. Highlight the "Apni Roots" name and its meaning.
• •Focus on Convenience and Solutions: Frame messaging around how the service makes customers' lives easier (e.g., "save time," "hassle-free," "delivered to you").
• •Engage with Cultural Relevance: Align content with Indian festivals, holidays, and cultural nuances in a respectful and celebratory manner. This reinforces the brand's understanding of its target audience.
• •Maintain a Customer-Centric Approach: Even in promotional material, address the customer directly, understand their needs (e.g., "craving authentic flavours," "busy schedule"), and position the brand as the helpful solution. Ensure this helpful and friendly tone is also reflected in customer service interactions across all channels to bridge any gap between online and offline perceptions.

Social Perception

Generally perceived positively as a convenient and much-needed service for accessing Indian groceries online, especially in the GTA. It is seen as a way to connect with cultural food traditions.
