(This is the part that gets the opens.)\n[ your take… ]\n———\nHere is a real one you can run this week 👇\nClorox built a universe of branded characters for Pine-Sol and deployed them on TikTok Shop to reach Gen Z, test products, and drive direct sales, per Modern Retail.\nHere's the cool part — the lever almost everyone misses (and you don't have to): Gen Z does not want ads — it wants characters it can follow, merchandise it can feel ownership over, and a reason to come back to the page. Build a character that owns one color, one personality, one voice — not a product. House that character on TikTok Shop and sell products as extensions of the character's world, not as standalone SKUs. Clorox could have dropped Pine-Sol cleanser #47. Instead, it dropped a frog. The frog sells.\nWhat that means for you: Most CPG brands are still posting product shots. Clorox is shipping a character. The character is cheaper to animate than to run paid media to Gen Z, and it sticks in the feed longer than a 15-second spot. The play is not even clever — it's just one step removed from what every DTC brand already knows about avatar-led community. Clorox is running it on a platform with a buy button inside.\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 — Modern Retail: https://www.modernretail.co/marketing/marketplace-briefing-how-a-cartoon-frog-wizard-is-helping-clorox-sell-pine-sol-on-tiktok-shop/?utm_campaign=modernretaildis&utm_medium=rss&utm_source=general-rss.)\n———\nOr — want it built FOR you?
