Solution
Zwicky
Inverted
Instead of selling only direct to consumers, sell curated scarf capsules to boutiques and stylists first, then use those placements to build consumer demand.
Analogy
Sneaker drops: scarcity, waitlists, and community-driven demand create repeat purchases and brand loyalty.
Rows Extra Note
Use at least one B2B channel to reduce dependence on paid ads.
