Best Practices

• •Know Your Audience – The "Everyday Warrior": Always write with the "hardworking American patriot," the veteran, the first responder, the "No BS guy" in mind. Use language and references that resonate with their experiences and values (e.g., resilience, duty, straightforwardness).
• •Embrace the "No-Nonsense" Attitude: Be direct, confident, and avoid fluff or overly delicate language. Get straight to the point about product benefits and brand values. Use strong verbs and clear, concise sentences.
• •Weave in the Veteran-Owned, American-Made Story Authentically: Don't just state it; let it infuse the pride and commitment to quality in your copy. It’s a core part of the brand's identity and a key motivator for many customers.
• •Use Masculine, Action-Oriented Language (with a touch of grit/humor where appropriate): Words like "conquer," "battle," "tackle," "engineered," "mission-ready" fit the brand. Product names and some marketing show a willingness to be a bit edgy or humorous – use this judiciously to reinforce the "unapologetically ourselves" aspect.
• •Focus on Natural Quality and Effectiveness Against Tough Grime: Consistently highlight the "all-natural," "cold-processed" aspects and how the soap effectively cleans without harsh chemicals, especially for those who get genuinely dirty or sweaty. This reinforces the "All Killer. No Filler." promise.
