Provide them with a shareable link but no script. The peer-to-peer trust is worth more than a paid creator post, and the social proof compounds in the first 24 hours. Run this with your repeat buyers first. Measure the lift in first-day revenue against a control group who got the same drop with zero early access.

Provide them with a shareable link but no script. The peer-to-peer trust is worth more than a paid creator post, and the social proof compounds in the first 24 hours. Run this with your repeat buyers first. Measure the lift in first-day revenue against a control group who got the same drop with zero early access.
