IT’S OKAY TO MIX THIRD<br />

AND FIRST PERSON<br />

Try to use first person pronouns (we, us, our) as much as possible.<br />

First person sounds more natural and friendly than referring to<br />

ourselves in the third person (<strong>Land</strong> <strong>Rover</strong>).<br />

But sometimes it will feel more natural to use a mix of both.<br />

Forget what you were taught in school, this is acceptable. Just try<br />

to introduce the brand by name first, but after the first mention<br />

switch to personal pronouns. And stick to them. Like this, “<strong>Land</strong> <strong>Rover</strong><br />

has been an iconic badge of national pride for 70 years. But where did<br />

it all begin? Read our article which explores how the achievements<br />

and innovations of Defender, Range <strong>Rover</strong> Evoque and Range <strong>Rover</strong><br />

Velar in particular have taken us Above and Beyond.”
