(This is the part that gets the opens.)\n[ your take… ]\n———\nHere is a real one you can run this week 👇\nStarbucks launched a global merchandise collection in partnership with Peanuts, centered on fall themes and 'The Great Pumpkin,' per Starbucks.\nHere's the cool part — the lever almost everyone misses (and you don't have to): licensed IP isn't about royalties—it's about anchoring a seasonal drop to an emotional moment. Peanuts + fall = automatic gift-buying season. Starbucks doesn't have to convince anyone that fall + pumpkin = buying time. The IP does that work. For a physical-product brand: find a cultural moment or character that already owns an emotional hook in your customer's mind, then build a limited collection around it. Nostalgia + scarcity + IP = faster sell-through than any paid campaign.\nWhat that means for you: This is not merchandise for merchandise's sake. Starbucks is using Peanuts (Millennial and Gen X nostalgia) to push seasonal goods into gift-buying cycles. 'The Great Pumpkin' reference is a double-move: it's a specific Peanuts moment (high intent), and it's tied to a real holiday (scarcity). For a brand: find the IP or cultural reference that already lives in your customer's head, then build a drop around it. Licensing fees are real, but a 30% sell-through bump pays for itself.\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 — Starbucks: https://news.google.com/rss/articles/CBMi1gFBVV95cUxNb2hVaGhxUkJRUWRVMjBLMXBhdEJMeWl6NGxzN3pxbFp5V0lZLVBXdEpiWDQzdnJOeTMxcFFIemQ0TFJMMW5ZaEZWa21pbUQ4QW5rbEp3a2haZXlBV1RzYVk5MkRVd3ZITGhvQ0wyeWdBUkdjb3Bld3lpNDFhak9MU25oNWtmUm1oVXhYZU9UWm1BLXRhWHZfM3R3SmxkM1htUEd5al9EMVE5VDJwVmN6ZUJySGJNZVJvamlhOEhqcFBXQ0s3aVFYNHFyMXpMR05jVWpudkhR?oc=5.)\n———\nOr — want it built FOR you?
