(This is the part that gets the opens.)\n[ your take… ]\n———\nHere is a real one you can run this week 👇\nRuggable redirected advertising dollars away from Meta and into ShopMy creator partnerships, per Digiday, as part of a broader marketing-stack overhaul preceding a potential IPO.\nHere's the cool part — the lever almost everyone misses (and you don't have to): stop buying reach and start buying sellers. ShopMy creators have built shopping audiences; pay them commission, not CPM. Your cost moves from ads nobody asked for to commissions on orders already placed. Run a pilot with five ShopMy creators on a single SKU, track AOV and repeat rate vs. last year's Meta spend on the same product, then scale winners. The arbitrage is real—you pay only when the order ships.\nWhat that means for you: This is the quiet death of spray-and-pray paid social for product brands. Ruggable is betting that a creator with ten thousand followers who actually shop is worth more than a million impressions from people scrolling. It's not ahead of—it's just math. The friction between 'reaching people' and 'selling product' has always been there; Ruggable is just stopping pretending they're the same thing. That's the move every brand with inventory and an IPO clock should be running this week.\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 — Digiday: https://digiday.com/marketing/ruggables-new-ad-spend-strategy-shifts-focus-to-shopmy-creators/?utm_campaign=digidaydis&utm_medium=rss&utm_source=general-rss.)\n———\nOr — want it built FOR you?
