More Than Energy

Everything a designer needs to make emails, ads, websites and social posts that look, sound and feel unmistakably MTE.

Confident · Plain-spoken · Benefit-led
the core

Wellness you can feel.

Our positioning, in three words. Everything we make, say and show has to earn them.

Why
Enjoyed, not endured
We believe life is meant to be enjoyed, not endured.
How
Simple, delicious, felt
We make wellness simple, delicious, and something you can actually feel.
What
A daily blend
A daily wellness blend for energy, focus, mood and recovery.
Core belief
Life is meant to be enjoyed, not endured.
North star
We make wellness simple, delicious, and something you can actually feel.
The enemies
Supplements you can't feel. Stuff that works, but isn't healthy.
Mechanism
Modern science meets nature's most effective ingredients, at doses you can actually feel.
The product
One simple, delicious daily drink you can feel working from Day 1.
01

The essentials

Start here. Everything else in this document serves these three things.

What we make
Felt wellness
A daily wellness blend for energy, focus, mood and recovery. One simple, delicious drink you feel working from Day 1.
How we sound
Confident
Plain-spoken and benefit-led. We state what MTE does like we're sure of it. No hype words, no fluff.
How we look
Clean & green
White-first and airy, green as the brand, tangerine as the single warm accent. Poppins throughout.
02

Wordmark

Set in Poppins Black. Green on light, white on the dark green canvas. Never on a busy background.

More Than Energy

Do

  • Keep clear space around it, at least the height of the "M" on all sides
  • Green (#38574B) on white; white on dark green or photography
  • Keep it horizontal and level

Don't

  • Recolour it tangerine or add gradients
  • Stretch, condense, outline or add drop shadows
  • Place it on a low-contrast or cluttered background
03

Colour

Green does almost all the work. Tangerine is a spark, not a coat of paint, used only for the one thing you want tapped or noticed.

Green
#38574B
Brand colour. All headlines and body text.
Green Deep
#16241C
Dark canvases, photo overlays, gradients.
Tangerine
#FF9900
The only accent. CTAs, eyebrows, emphasis.
Tang Dark
#E08800
Hover and pressed states.
Tang Tint
#FFF4E2
Badges, highlight fills, quiet emphasis.
Tang Wash
#FFFAF2
Faintest warm shading for panels & rows.
Muted
#6B7A74
Secondary text, captions, labels.
Soft
#F4F6F5
Subtle panels and fills.
Line
#E6E9E7
Borders and dividers.
White
#FFFFFF
Default background everywhere.
White + green · ~85%
Green
Tang

Rough balance to aim for on any asset: mostly white and green, a little dark green, and just a spark of tangerine. If tangerine is competing with green for attention, there's too much of it.

04

Typography

Poppins only, weights 400 to 900. Tight, confident headlines. Calm, readable body. Never mix in another typeface.

Hero · 900
Feel the difference
Section · 800
Feel it from Day 1
Eyebrow · 800
the daily ritual
Emphasis · 800
Clean, lasting focus
Body · 400
Plain-spoken, benefit-led copy that tells people exactly what MTE does and never reaches for hype.
Micro tag · 800
60-Day Money-Back Guarantee

Eyebrows are always uppercase, tangerine, tracked, with the 22px tangerine rule before them. Keep them short: two or three plain words. Never put an em dash, en dash or any dash inside an eyebrow, use a comma or split it.

05

Voice & tone

The same everywhere, from a paid ad to a reply in the comments. Confident, warm, human, and allergic to hype.

We don't say
We say
"Revolutionary, game-changing energy formula!!!"
"Wellness you can actually feel. From Day 1."
"Unlock your ultimate best self today."
"Feel focused and steady all day."
"Synergistic proprietary wellness blend."
"Real ingredients that actually do something."
"Buy now, limited time, don't miss out!!!"
"Save up to 40% + Free Gifts."
Confident, not loud
Benefit first, always
Plain words over jargon
Warm and human
No exclamation spam
No em dashes, use commas
06

Buttons & calls to action

One primary CTA per view. Tangerine gradient, white text, rounded. It should be the most tappable thing on the screen, and the only tangerine-filled thing.

Primary CTA: tangerine gradient, white bold text. Secondary: green outline on white. Never put two tangerine buttons in the same view, the eye should always know where to go. Keep CTA copy short and active: "Shop MTE", "Start your ritual", "Save 40% today".

07

Imagery

Bright, clean, and real. Photography should feel like the drink: light, fresh and effortless. Product is always the hero.

Light & airy

Natural daylight, white and soft-neutral backgrounds, lots of breathing room. Nothing dim, moody or cluttered.

Product forward

The can or stick pack is the hero, crisp and in focus. Show it in hand, mid-ritual, or clean on white.

Real, active moments

Everyday people mid-day, focused and steady, not staged or over-perfect. Energy that looks calm, not frantic.

Green & fresh cues

Natural greens, fresh ingredients, clean surfaces. Tangerine appears as a small prop or accent, never floods the frame.

08

By channel

The system stays identical everywhere, only the format changes. Here's how to apply it to the four you'll build most.

@

Email

Clean, white, one clear message per email. Read like a helpful note, not a billboard.

·Width: 600px content, white background, generous padding.
·One primary CTA above the fold, tangerine, white text.
·Headline green Poppins 800, one benefit, no hype.
·Subject lines plain and specific: "Wellness you can actually feel".
·Product hero image near the top, on white.
·Offer language consistent: "Save up to 40% + Free Gifts".

Paid ads

Stop the scroll with the product and one sharp benefit. Legible at thumb size, one idea only.

·Hook in the first 3 words or first second of video.
·Product visible immediately, always the hero.
·One benefit per ad: energy, focus, mood or recovery.
·Big green headline, tangerine only on the CTA or a badge.
·High contrast, white or green backgrounds, readable small.
·One CTA: "Shop MTE" or "Save 40% today".

Website

White-first and modular. Each section makes one point, then hands off to the next. Build with the existing blocks.

·Container 1180px, section padding 72px, airy spacing.
·White sections throughout; dark green only for a credibility strip and the closing CTA.
·Green headlines, single colour, italic emphasis allowed.
·Cards 16 to 18px radius, soft green-tinted shadows.
·One tangerine CTA per section, never two.
·Mobile: snap rails with a peek, 2-up benefit grids.

Organic social

Warmer and more human than ads. Same look, but it can breathe, show personality and start conversations.

·Feed grid stays green, white and fresh, cohesive at a glance.
·Captions in full brand voice: helpful, plain, a little warm.
·Education over selling: how it works, why you feel it, real routines.
·Tangerine sparingly as a highlight, keep grids from going loud.
·Text on image Poppins 800, green or white, high contrast.
·Reply like a person, never a hype machine or a bot.

The quick rules

If you remember nothing else, remember these.

Always

  • Lead with white space; keep everything clean and airy
  • Make headlines green and set everything in Poppins
  • Use tangerine for one thing per view: the CTA
  • Write benefit-first, plain, confident copy
  • Keep CTA text white on the tangerine gradient
  • Keep offer language consistent across every channel

Never

  • Flood a design with tangerine or recolour headlines with it
  • Add a second typeface or use hype words and exclamation spam
  • Use em dashes or en dashes anywhere, including eyebrows, use commas or rewrite
  • Put two primary CTAs in the same view
  • Go dark, moody or cluttered, that isn't MTE
  • Let the product disappear, it's always the hero
