We show understanding. We create a feeling. We demonstrate knowledge.
DO:
Entice. Don't just show something, explain it. Everyone shows blinds, we show why they matter.
Think differently. Find the different angles, the different selling points to everyone else.
Use detail. Every window covering is different, even if only in colour. Those differences help bring product to life.
Think beyond aesthetic. This isn't just about which blinds match a room. It's the quality, materials and fit. It's the sound they make and the atmosphere they create.
DON'T:
Don't be boring. There's a fine line between making blinds sexy and dreary.
Don't fill every gap. Just because we're evocative, doesn't mean we have to be long winded. A well-informed sentence trumps waffle every time.
Don't alienate with language. We're talking to pretty much everyone with a window and you can be inspirational, give detail and show empathy without being over the top.
