(This is the part that gets the opens.)\n[ your take… ]\n———\nHere is a real one you can run this week 👇\nZevia announced its biggest campaign to date, centered on a partnership with Cardi B to anchor messaging, per Marketing Dive.\nHere's the cool part — the lever almost everyone misses (and you don't have to): celebrity partnerships become viable when a brand owns shelf depth in at least 60% of its target retail footprint. Before that, the spend is wasted. Zevia's move suggests they've locked distribution. The play: if you're eyeing a micro-celebrity or mid-tier creator partnership, first secure 8-12 weeks of guaranteed shelf stock in at least 500 doors. Then announce the partnership. Inventory is what converts celebrity attention into sales.\nWhat that means for you: Zevia is past the scrappy phase. They have the retail, they have the stock, and now they're buying the attention. Most brands do this backwards — they chase celebrity before they can fulfill the demand it creates. Zevia waited. That's discipline.\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 — Marketing Dive: https://www.marketingdive.com/news/zevia-taps-cardi-b-to-serve-up-real-talk-in-biggest-campaign-to-date/825763/.)\n———\nOr — want it built FOR you?
