(This is the part that gets the opens.)\n[ your take… ]\n———\nHere is a real one you can run this week 👇\nPer Retail Dive, Tapestry launched sales capability inside Google's Gemini app via AI Mode, letting users discover and purchase directly within the AI interface.\nHere's the cool part — the lever almost everyone misses (and you don't have to): 58% of ad execs expect agentic buying to hit scale within a year, per IAB Europe (Digiday). Tapestry is not waiting for that maturity; they're building the habit now. For a $5-20M brand, this does not mean building in Gemini — you don't have that leverage yet. But it means: your product description, your pricing, and your brand story need to be AI-readable and AI-vendable by next year. Start with your website schema markup. Make sure your product data is structured so that when an AI agent recommends your product, the transaction can route to you, not a marketplace. Test this by asking ChatGPT to recommend your product category and watch where it sends traffic.\nWhat that means for you: This feels futuristic, but it's not. Tapestry is betting that the search page is dead and the conversational AI interface is the new shelf. For most physical-product brands, this is permission to stop optimizing for Google's blue links and start making sure your product data is clean and AI-parseable. You won't get distribution in Gemini next quarter. But in 18 months, if your product sheet doesn't work in an AI interface, you'll be invisible.\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/tapestry-sell-via-google-gemini-app-ai-mode/830890/.)\n———\nOr — want it built FOR you? Your logo, your products, your own private room, priced and ready, in about five minutes.
