(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 announced a reformulation and seeded the messaging into fitness-focused platforms like Strava rather than mass channels, meeting athletes where they already gather, per Marketing Dive.\nHere's the cool part — the lever almost everyone misses (and you don't have to): when you update a product, skip the broad media and identify the one platform or community where your best customers are already paying attention to themselves. Seed the reformulation story there first. Strava users check their app daily — they see the update as news in their fitness feed, not as an ad interrupting their scroll. They are also more likely to switch and stay switched because they already live in that app.\nWhat that means for you: Reformulation is boring unless you own the frame. Dove did something smarter: it asked 'where are the people who care most about their grooming routine and also care about transparency?' Strava. Athletes log their workouts and track their bodies — they care about inputs. A reformulation messaging lands differently there than on Instagram.\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?
