The GPT that wrote this article got it wrong. Luxury is about quality and status. Imply these with a focus on features over benefits. Write that the engine is the same model that won Le Mans in 2022. How seven different craftspeople, each with a unique skill, handcrafted the moving parts. Note how many carats in the stone, how many hours the beef was slow-cooked, and how many coats of the finest lacquer were carefully laid on the hand-crafted wood. Casually mention the celebrities and royalty who cherish the same brand. Warn that only 130 of this item will ever be made. These features will make buyers "feel confident and sophisticated" without saying it. Or do they feel that way already?

Focusing on benefits is just surface-level thinking in this aspect. Having helped a financial advisor generate High-Net-Worth (HNW) leads for her family office services... ...what really appeals to this HNW market is: (1)what kind of legacy they will leave behind? (2)how do others view them? (3)will they see an improvement in their status? Always remember that the needs of the HNW market are vastly different from the mass market. And more often than not, the answer lies in their emotional needs and social status.

Writing for most of the top 20 brands in luxury watches (Rolex, Jaeger-LeCoultre, Vacheron Contstantin a.o.) it's all about giving your clients a story to tell. Omega understands this well: their Speedmaster is the first watch that was worn on the moon. The Seamster is James Bond's watch. Panerai will tell you it's the watch that was developed for the Italian navy divers -- and was discovered by Sylvester Stallone. Patek Philippe is the brand worn by kings... since 1839. Understand what impresses your audience and look for create stories in that realm. Adapt your tone of voice accordingly and you'll go a long way.

It's important to distinguish between selling a luxury product as opposed to selling to a high-end audience. The dynamic is different. Considering that a large chunk of buyers will spend beyond their means.

✔Use words that evoke sophistication, exclusivity, and heritage. Think "impeccable," "bespoke," and "timeless" instead of "good," "custom," and "durable." ✔Also, reference cultural icons, historical events, or high-end locations relevant to your brand and target audience. ❌And never forget to AVOID slang, clichés, and overly promotional language. Opt for subtle persuasion through elegant description.

Working in the space of experiential luxury, here’s one piece of advice that I received, which continues to work wonders- LESS IS MORE. Communicating to a luxury audience is about piquing interest, personalising your offerings to them, and letting them know that it’s exclusive just for them. Never over-explain your service/product. Let them know that it’s an end to end experience that is worth their time by highlighting its core value proposition only.

Avoid clichés and overused terms. Use sophisticated vocabulary and nuanced language that reflects their world to 'speak the language' of the target audience.

Often times we over complicate our copies by using fancy words or jargons. That mostly doesn’t work and isn’t expected from any brand whether it be a luxury brand or otherwise. Your customers, when looking at your marketing would connect with you more if you use simple, easy to understand words. One of the biggest luxury brands I can think of would be Apple. Their marketing copies position them as the authority by using simple words: 1. Biggest screen on any phone 2. Mind-blowing. Head-turning 3. Loveable. Drawable. Magical. 4. Titanium. So strong. So light. So Pro. Simple. Easy to understand. Relatable.

Create a sense of scarcity and desirability by mentioning limited editions, special collections, or handcrafted items. Emphasise limited availability. A long heritage is very often a characteristic of a luxury brand. Showcase this heritage and especially any craftsmanship that goes hand-in-hand with creating the product. Highlight the brand's history, traditional techniques, and use of premium materials.
