Best Practices

• •Develop a Brand Voice Chart: Clearly define adjectives that describe your brand's personality (e.g., Elegant, Accessible, Current, Supportive, British-focused) and those that don't. Provide 'do' and 'don't' examples for phrasing.
• •Balance Aspirational and Accessible Language: While highlighting elegance and sophistication, ensure the copy remains welcoming and inclusive. Use phrases that speak to quality and style but also to value and everyday comfort.
• •Highlight Key Values Consistently: Regularly weave in mentions of 'UK-designed,' 'quality craftsmanship,' and (as it develops) 'eco-conscious choices' where relevant in product descriptions, social media, and blog content.
• •Tailor Tone to the Platform, but Maintain Core Identity: While social media (especially TikTok) allows for more informal and enthusiastic language, ensure the underlying values of quality, style, and customer care still come through. Website copy can be more descriptive and elegant.
• •Focus on 'You' and Benefits: Frame copy around how the products benefit the customer – how they bring joy, comfort, style, or a touch of luxury to *their* lives. Emphasize the feeling and experience the products offer.

Social Perception

Generally Positive Online Sentiment: Across their website testimonials, eBay feedback (100% positive for seller Homytrends), and social media engagement, the visible sentiment is largely positive, focusing on product appeal and customer service.
