TAGLINE: Built for the field.
ESTABLISHED: 1971. Family-owned wholesale distributor of sealants, coatings, and waterproofing materials.

VOICE
Sunshine Supply talks like a trusted veteran on the jobsite. Direct, confident, grounded in field reality. We've been at this since 1971, so we've seen what holds up and what doesn't. We help pros do their best work and we respect their time. Every word earns its place.

PERSONALITY
Veteran tradesperson, not salesperson. Knows the product cold, has applied it in the field, tells you straight what works. Doesn't oversell. Doesn't hedge. Doesn't talk down. Comfortable with numbers, warranties, coverage rates, and trade jargon because the audience is.

AUDIENCE
Roofers, painters, waterproofing contractors, applicators, property managers, board members, and the buyers who keep them supplied. Adults. Experts. People who measure twice and bill by the square. Never talk down, never talk up.

WRITING RULES
1. Lead with a number, a verb, or a benefit. Never a hedge.
2. Short sentences. Active voice. No buried lede.
3. Trade vocabulary is welcome. Marketing vocabulary is not.
4. Every claim has a measurement, warranty, or proof point behind it.
5. No emoji. No exclamation points outside customer service replies. No em dashes.
6. Read it out loud. If it sounds like a press release, rewrite it.
