(This is the part that gets the opens.)\n[ your take… ]\n———\nHere is a real one you can run this week 👇\nIpsy is launching marketing services to onboard new brands and court more customers, expanding beyond its original beauty-box model, per Modern Retail.\nHere's the cool part — the lever almost everyone misses (and you don't have to): if you have built a community or a creator network, consider monetizing the *access* to that network before you monetize the product. Ipsy's creators and data on beauty trial are worth more to brands than another subscription box. The pivot is from product to platform. For a small beauty or personal-care brand, Ipsy's new services are a lower-risk way to seed product with Ipsy creators — you pay for the service, not for the box inventory or customer acquisition.\nWhat that means for you: This is a whisper-stage move, but it signals something important: the most valuable thing Ipsy built was not a box — it was a relationship between creators and beauty consumers. They are now selling access to that relationship. If you are a brand trying to seed product with beauty creators, watch whether Ipsy's service delivers faster trial and repeat than traditional influencer outreach. It might be the next play for small brands that cannot afford to pay per-creator.\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/exclusive-beauty-service-ipsy-is-becoming-a-marketing-work-company-too/?utm_campaign=modernretaildis&utm_medium=rss&utm_source=general-rss.)\n———\nOr — want it built FOR you? Your logo, your products, your own private room, priced and ready, in about five minutes. That's literally what we do →\nhttps://www.pops4.com/vip?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=newsletter&utm_campaign=stash",
