(This is the part that gets the opens.)\n[ your take… ]\n———\nHere is a real one you can run this week 👇\nRuggable shifted marketing dollars away from Meta and toward ShopMy creators as part of a strategic repositioning before a potential IPO, per Digiday.\nHere's the cool part — the lever almost everyone misses (and you don't have to): Meta's algorithm deprioritizes commerce links; ShopMy creators own their audience and the transaction. Move dollars from platforms that tax your link to platforms where creators sell as part of their identity. Run a pilot with three ShopMy creators whose audiences match your buyer profile — measure ROAS and repeat-purchase rate against last year's Meta spend on the same monthly budget. The creator takes 15-20% commission but you reclaim the data on repeat buyers.\nWhat that means for you: This is a founder move: Ruggable read the room. Meta's algorithm is optimized for engagement, not conversion. Creators are optimized for trust. When you're a public company (or about to be), your CAC and LTV matter more than impressions. The fact that a brand this size — already proven in traditional retail — is betting on smaller creator platforms tells you the efficiency gap has gotten wide enough that founders are willing to rebuild the marketing stack. Not glamorous, but real.\nIf you make, sell, or gift anything with your name on it — this is yours to run. You can do this.\n(Real, not theory — Digiday: https://digiday.com/marketing/ruggables-new-ad-spend-strategy-shifts-focus-to-shopmy-creators/?utm_campaign=digidaydis&utm_medium=rss&utm_source=general-rss.)\n———\nOr — want it built FOR you?
