(This is the part that gets the opens.)\n[ your take… ]\n———\nHere is a real one you can run this week 👇\nDove Men+Care promoted a reformulation via Strava (athlete tracking app) and social media, targeting fitness-engaged consumers where they already measure and share performance.\nHere's the cool part — the lever almost everyone misses (and you don't have to): choose the platform where your target already measures or proves something. Dove could have run Strava ads; instead they seeded the reformulation story in the feed where athletes report their own numbers. The product claim (better for athletic skin) maps to the platform's native language (performance metrics). Find the app where your buyer already quantifies their life, then tell the story in that dialect.\nWhat that means for you: Most brands broadcast the same message everywhere. This is the opposite: choose one platform your buyer already lives in, then speak the dialect of that place. Athletes on Strava don't care about 'reformulation' — they care about performance. So Dove told the story as a performance upgrade, in the app where performance is the currency. That's the precision move.\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 — Marketing Dive: https://www.marketingdive.com/news/dove-mencare-takes-to-strava-and-social-media-to-promote-reformulation/824351/.)\n———\nOr — want it built FOR you?
