Mejores Prácticas

• •Embrace the Inner Monologue: Write copy as if you are articulating the cynical, unfiltered thoughts people have but rarely say. Use "I" statements to make the commentary feel personal and direct.
• •Juxtapose High and Low Culture: Pair sophisticated or aspirational visuals with mundane, modern-day complaints. The clash between the elegant imagery and the blunt, relatable text is central to the brand's humor.
• •Lead with Satire, End with Relatability: Start with a sharp, satirical observation about a modern trend (like wellness fads or toxic positivity) but ensure the underlying message is a shared human experience (like insecurity or frustration). This makes the controversial take feel inclusive.
• •Use Hashtags as Punchlines: On social media, use hashtags not just for discovery but to add another layer of sarcastic commentary. For example, alongside #Art, use #MillennialProblems, #AdultingIsAHoax, or #INeedANap.
• •Maintain a Fearless Voice: Do not dilute the message to appeal to everyone. The brand's power comes from its unapologetic and provocative stance. Avoid "vanilla" language and corporate jargon at all costs. The goal is to evoke a strong reaction, not quiet approval.
