✨ K-Beauty Formula → Cult DTC Brand

Jade Beauty

Product was genuinely excellent — K-beauty formulas, family recipe. But the brand read "import" not "icon."

🍑 Ethnic Aisle → Whole Foods Main Floor

Kept getting placed on the "ethnic aisle." Retailer buyers saw novelty; customers saw something deeper.

We've worked with two agencies before. Both wanted to 'make us more universal.' That was code for erasing us.

9:14 AM

Yeah. We've heard that before. What if instead of erasing the Korean grandmother's recipe, we made it the whole brand story?

That's exactly what we wanted to hear. You had me at 4.7x ROAS.

9:18 AM

That's just what happens when the brief is written by someone who grew up on those products too. 🍵

Three locations, no brand that travels. Every outpost just kind of did its own thing. Felt like three different businesses.

2:03 PM

Okay but here's the thing — the soul is there. We just need to make it legible at scale. What does the fourth location look like in your head?

Franchise. Nationwide. Boba the way we grew up with it, not the mall version.

2:08 PM

That's the brief. 312% more franchise inquiries later, I think we nailed it. 🧋

My buyer at Target literally said 'this is great for the ethnic aisle.' I wanted to walk out of that meeting.

That comment tells us everything we need to know about your current positioning — and how to blow past it. How do you feel about Whole Foods main floor?

Is that actually possible for us?

11:26 AM

12 locations, $2.4M Year 1. It's not just possible. It's the only version of this story worth telling. 🍑
