• •Emphasize Expertise with a Friendly Touch: Share knowledge about foot health, shoe technology, and fitting in an accessible, helpful, and non-intimidating way. Avoid overly technical jargon unless explained simply.
• •Highlight Community and Family Values: Casually mention the family-owned aspect or local roots where appropriate to build connection and trust.
• •Use Welcoming and Inclusive Language: Make everyone feel invited, from seasoned athletes to casual walkers. Focus on the joy and benefits of an active lifestyle for all.
• •Showcase Real People and Stories (Staff/Customers): Feature testimonials or staff picks to add authenticity and reinforce the friendly, community-focused image. This aligns with their current social media strategy of staff highlights.
