The sell is not the product — it is the scarcity moment. For a physical product brand, run a midnight or opening-hour-only drop at a single retail partner (not online). Cap inventory to a number you can sell in 2 hours. Announce the time and cap 48 hours ahead. Do not rely on online scarcity (anyone can refresh); make them show up. The event is the moat.\nWhat that means for you: a midnight launch works only if the item is genuinely limited and time-locked. The sell is not the product — it is the scarcity moment.
