This luxury grocery store was just featured in Vogue, while the rest of the world is struggling to put a basic meal on the table. In case you're not chronically online and have zero idea what I'm talking about, Meadowlane just opened this week in New York City, and it has been the talk of the Internet. And regardless of how controversial this may be, there are a few things that every single founder and creator should be taking notes on. First off, the founder, Brokeback and Tessa, started talking about building this business online two years ago, which has created so much hype because he's involved his audience in what he's building. Anybody can do this pre launch if you let your customers in and get them rooting for the underdog. Number two is the exclusivity factor. People are pissed that this is luxury during an economic struggle, but that's the point. It's not meant for everyone. That's why Erwan works so well. Right? And third, we have the fact that he's showing up very honestly online. Since their opening day, there has already been a whole viral conversation online about people getting raw chicken nuggets. But guess what? That's the reality of running a business and learning as you go. Him owning up to this and fixing it will have people continuing to support him regardless of mistakes. Overall, I think this has been super well done, and I'm just excited to see what happens next. But let me know what you guys think.
