(This is the part that gets the opens.)\n[ your take… ]\n———\nHere is a real one you can run this week 👇\nOld Navy's back-to-school campaign with top YouTuber MrBeast showed early promise, including a documented traffic increase, per Retail Dive.\nHere's the cool part — the lever almost everyone misses (and you don't have to): mega-creators drive traffic, not brand loyalty. Use them to move volume during your peak season, then measure the traffic bump, not the engagement or sentiment. Old Navy didn't wait for MrBeast to sell the clothing — they used him to open the door. Track the traffic spike by source (YouTube, TikTok, direct) and repeat the play with the same creator next quarter if the cost-per-click is under $1.\nWhat that means for you: mega-creators drive traffic, not brand loyalty. Use them to move volume during your peak season, then measure the traffic bump, not the engagement or sentiment. Old Navy didn't wait for MrBeast to sell the clothing — they used him to open the door. Track the traffic spike by source (YouTube, TikTok, direct) and repeat the play with the same creator next quarter if the cost-per-click is under $1.\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 — Retail Dive: https://www.retaildive.com/news/old-navys-mrbeast-marketing-deal-boosts-engagement/830255/.)\n———\nOr — want it built FOR you?
