NEW PARIS BOOK IN PROGRESS IN 2024: LUXURY WITH ATTENTION TO DETAIL – Blog # 9.
Luxury brands offer people timeless classics, exceptional quality, personalized experiences, and exclusivity. They also offer simplicity with laser-like attention to detail.
Troy Allen, the Chief Executive Officer of Rise Brands and an expert in branding, wrote in Forbes magazine in April 2023 on luxury brands’ attention to detail and why it is important. His advice can also be applied to writing a book:
Details keep people focused: It’s easy for readers to become distracted, so the point is for the author to keep focused on the plot, the characters, the means, and the message.
Details enhance the experience: The aim is not about achieving perfection in writing – it’s about building memorable moments in the book.
Details keep you ahead of the competition: It’s the details that make people notice the product. More than anything, Troy Allen says that a keen attention to detail shows people that you really care.
There are lessons here for writers, including me as I conceptualize my new book, still tentatively called the New Paris book. For me, what is one single detail that tells the readers everything they need to know about the main character(s) and the story? That’s a big question.
