(This is the part that gets the opens.)\n[ your take… ]\n———\nHere is a real one you can run this week 👇\nThe $199.99 limited edition Pokémon Deluxe Character Guide became unavailable at major retailers ahead of its official launch, per retail scarcity reports.\nHere's the cool part — the lever almost everyone misses (and you don't have to): pre-announce a premium SKU with a fixed print run and tell retailers allocation will be tight. Don't sell the allocation — let scarcity do the work. Watch what happens when you tell three big retailers they're getting 50 units each and that's it. The shortage precedes launch by weeks. Run this with your next premium tier: cap production at 60% of pre-order volume, ship 40% of demand unfilled, watch the secondary market price rise, then drop the second batch at a higher retail price with \"new colorway\" copy. The first buyers became unpaid salespeople.\nWhat that means for you: pre-announce a premium SKU with a fixed print run and tell retailers allocation will be tight.

You can do this.\n(Real, not theory — MSN News: http://www.bing.com/news/apiclick.aspx?ref=FexRss&aid=&tid=6a39a26e7c6044528e323dd44ee3c5ba&url=https%3a%2f%2fwww.msn.com%2fen-us%2fnews%2fother%2fpok%25C3%25A9mon-deluxe-guide-in-high-demand-before-launch%2fgm-GM9DB1DAC0&c=15892121373601578117&mkt=en-us.)\n———\nOr — want it built FOR you?
