Best Practices

• •Embody the "Empowering & Confident" Voice: Use strong verbs, aspirational language, and a tone that encourages self-belief and individuality. Avoid overly passive or hesitant phrasing.
• •Infuse Cultural Pride Authentically: Naturally weave in elements of Caribbean heritage and community focus where relevant. This could be through specific words (if appropriate for the platform and audience), storytelling, or by highlighting community connections. Ensure care labels and multilingual communication where possible reflect this.
• •Stay Youthful & Trendy (But Timeless Where Needed): While leveraging current slang or trends on platforms like TikTok, ensure the core message of empowerment and quality remains. Product descriptions on the website might be slightly more polished but should still feel energetic.
• •Prioritize "Unity" and "Community": Use inclusive language ("we," "us," "our community"). Foster interaction by asking questions and encouraging user-generated content that reflects shared values.
• •Be Bold and Direct, Yet Approachable: Reflect the "You Don't Know" attitude with confidence, but ensure the overall tone remains inviting and inspiring, not alienating. The aim is to make people feel part of something special.
