Brand Guardrails
Read these before submitting any content · non-negotiable rules
🚫
Never use these — ever
Never mention specific military installations by name (no West Point, Fort Myer, etc.)
Never use "DoD" — use NAVFAC or "federal agency stakeholders" instead
Never mention NMSDC certification — it is not currently active. Active certs are: MBE, M/WBE, and Woman-Owned only
Never publish a post Betty has not explicitly approved — no exceptions
Never share client names, contract details, or business financials externally
Never approach Brano Design clients or referral partners independently
Always do this
Target audience is always: Procurement Officers, Owners, and Developers — write for them
Use NAVFAC or "federal agency stakeholders" for all government sector content
Self-check every draft against the VA Content Quality Benchmark before submitting
Submit drafts to Betty at least 48 hours before the scheduled publish date
Use brand colors navy #1B2D4F and gold #C49A45, fonts Cormorant Garamond and Arial for any visual content
Log every outreach email and CRM update in HubSpot immediately after sending
Voice & tone rules
Tone is authoritative and institutional — not casual, not trendy
Opening line must stop the scroll — make it provocative, specific, or counterintuitive
No emojis in LinkedIn posts, no trending phrases, no vague motivational language
Every claim must be verifiable — no exaggeration or unconfirmed statistics
Maximum 7 hashtags per LinkedIn post — keep them sector-specific
Content pillars: Proof · Insight · Process · People · Prompt — every post fits one
📋
Pre-submit checklist — run before every draft
Opening line would stop the scroll — not generic
Audience is Procurement Officers, Owners, or Developers — not general LinkedIn
No NMSDC · No DoD · No military installation names
Sector language is accurate and specific to the content pillar
Compared to 3 benchmark posts in Quality Benchmark doc — does it meet the standard?
Submitted to Betty at least 48 hours before publish date
