Grail: Mario Bellini’s Camaleonda sofa

Debuted in 1972, back in prominence via Instagram and the never-ending circle of style in 2021, rereleased for the public to buy from the original studio that hasn't carried it since 1979.

Perfect for a conversation pit ;)
To describe his creation, Mario says “I crossed two words: camaleonte, or chameleon, an extraordinary animal capable of adapting to its environment, and onda, or wave"

Idk, if I can't sleep tonight maybe I'll try and source an Alibaba team to make a custom variation and see what we can get the price to ;)
Aight that didn't even take 60s - Alibaba vendors knocking this all the way off for a fraction of the price (still racks tho) alibaba.com/product-detail…

Started with fabric samples, ended up with some fire joggers… let me break down the process of sourcing and ordering an Alibaba merch item. 🧵👇
Step one— searched on Alibaba for “hypebeast”, “joggers”, “mens sweatpants” and picked six vendors with nice stuff. Contacted all of them directly asking to purchase samples.
Of those 3 had solid English and we had good communications, the others were asking a lot of questions or unresponsive. Spent $200 on ordering 2-3 samples from each of three with fabrics swatches (primarily shipping, no sample cost more than $15). Examples of pricing below.

I’ll paint a bleak version of the current marketing future for a lot of the digital marketers out there—we’ve been living in an un-precendented era for cheap value in marketing, and it's almost over.
Facebook ads, Instagram ads and Google Shopping have presented just absolutely enormous value many brands still can’t wrap their heads around, it's been an unbelievable opportunity for those that could take advantage.

But this era is fading.
The target demographics are leaving, the costs are going up, the noise is getting louder and louder, and unlike previous generations when there were new mediums to fall back on, a new hot network that could drive value—there’s nothing waiting to save us.

Dropping free game… Here’s multiple non-clothing business ideas, with direct, vetted factory links you can get started on Alibaba with right now.

No slacking tonight, map out your company launch and hit these vendors directly.

A thread for the builders... Let's go! 🧵🧵👇
Axes. Hammers. Chisels. Crowbars. License a sick camouflage pattern, wrap these bad boys and get a Facebook target audience pointed at men who like Duck Dynasty ages 30-55 in red states. Seriously, run it.

I bought this exact jumprope on Amazon for $8 during quarantine. It’s .70 at 100 minimum order quantity. 1000 pieces you can get custom logos etc.

Trying to get a side hustle running this weekend?

I'm dropping some of the best Alibaba plugs to start a clothing line from the 200+ pieces of merch I've done in the last few years in this thread

Hit them up, order some samples, drop some designs, mark em up 2-5x and 💸💸
Joggers and sweats plug, this team is the truth. Have used 10x. Great to work with, can customize screenprint or embroider. Awesome communication (for Alibaba).

Products 4/5
Ease of work 5/5

Sock plug - this is the easiest, highest margin option to start dropping clothes. Get them landed at $1-2 a pair, sell for $10.

We met with a potential acquisition last week. They’re in an office park of cannabis companies, and are the most successful by 3x. No investment, no killer feature.

I asked the management team, what separates you from all these other businesses? The answers are below 🧵
Hours. They run 8-10, no matter what. An employee calls out, manager is in, manager out, owner is in.

Most of the competition is 10-10. The ones that are on the same hours close early or open late when they have staff issues.

2hrs a day more, compounded over years, matters.
Equity. Every employee has equity at their year mark (also the case in our business).

The barrier to getting recruited away, which is rampant in cannabis, is much higher when the team has ownership and sees a path to greater value.
