  • The Customer-Focused Approach to Building a Brand and Business

    When it comes to launching a product or starting an e-commerce business, most people take an overly analytical approach. They look at trending products on Alibaba, source them, throw them on Amazon, and hope PPC ads drive sales. But this approach misses 99% of what it takes to build a real brand and business.

    I follow a different method—one that aligns with the teachings of Alex Hormozi, Eric Ries, and Steve Blank. It’s a customer-first approach to product development. Instead of starting with a product and hoping people buy it, I start by identifying a customer group and uncovering their problems. Then, I find or create products that solve those problems. This way, I’m not just selling a product—I’m providing value.

    The Process: From Customer Problems to Profitable Products

    1. Identify the Customer and Their Problems

    The first step is understanding who you want to serve. Are they fitness enthusiasts? Busy professionals? Parents? Once you’ve chosen a group, the next step is to research their biggest pain points and desires. The best businesses are built around solving real problems.

    2. Match Problems with Potential Products

    Here’s where the magic happens. The key is to go back and forth—customer problems ⇄ potential products—until you find a strong match. You can source products in several ways:

    • Finding a supplier (Alibaba, domestic manufacturers, wholesalers)
    • Creating your own product
    • Drop shipping

    Market demand should guide this process. If people are already searching for something, it’s easier to sell. Some of my favorite tools for trend analysis include:

    • Exploding Topics – Aggregates rising trends before they hit the mainstream
    • TikTok Search – Shows what products and topics are gaining traction
    • Google Trends – Helps identify long-term search trends

    3. Craft a Compelling Offer

    A product alone isn’t enough—you need an offer. The offer is simply what the customer gets for the price they pay. It should communicate value, differentiation, and urgency. If your offer isn’t converting, it’s often because:

    • The price doesn’t match perceived value
    • The messaging isn’t clear
    • The product doesn’t address an urgent pain point

    4. Get the Offer in Front of Customers

    Now it’s time for marketing. You have two main options:

    • Organic marketing – Content creation on TikTok, YouTube, blogs, social media
    • Paid advertising – Facebook Ads, Google Ads, influencer partnerships

    TikTok has revolutionized social commerce, making it essential to think about virality and engagement. A winning product on TikTok typically:

    • Is visually demonstrative (you can see why it’s useful)
    • Solves a problem people immediately relate to
    • Fits within a trend or cultural movement

    Iterating for Success

    Once everything is in place, you need to analyze what’s working (and what’s not). If you’re not getting traction, don’t scrap everything—adjust one thing at a time.

    1. First, adjust the marketing and messaging – Improve ad copy, change the angle, or test different visuals.
    2. Next, refine the offer – Experiment with pricing, bundles, or bonuses.
    3. If nothing works, re-evaluate the product or customer group – Maybe the problem wasn’t as urgent as you thought, or the audience isn’t a good fit.

    From Strategy to Execution: Making It Work

    The ultimate goal of this process isn’t just to find a quick win—it’s to build a sustainable brand. That means focusing on long-term customer value, creating a loyal audience, and continuously refining your approach.

    As I discussed in a recent conversation, there’s a lot of noise in e-commerce. People chase trends, buy courses, and hope for overnight success. But real success comes from doing the deep work—understanding who you’re serving, what they need, and how you can provide it in the best way possible.

    Whether you’re launching a TikTok Shop or starting an Amazon brand, this process ensures that every decision is backed by customer insight, market demand, and real value creation. And that’s how you build a brand that lasts. Read more on Market Jack about How to Find Profitable Products to Maximize Sales.

  • From Music to Merchandise: Envisioning Taylor Swift’s Next Brand

    “Look what you made me do.” -Taylor Swift after starting her new brand.

    Celebrities have successfully leveraged their fame and influence to create and promote brands that resonate with their personal ethos. Conor McGregor capitalized on his Irish roots by launching the whiskey brand Proper No. 12. Ryan Reynolds used his fame for Aviation Gin and Mint Mobile. And Gwyneth Paltrow entered the lifestyle and wellness market with the launch of Goop, a brand synonymous with holistic living.

    No one currently has as big of a fan base as Taylor Swift. Let’s imagine what kind of retail business she would start – based on her brand.

    Fashion and Merchandise Line

    Taylor Swift is not only known for her musical prowess but also for her distinctive style. A fashion and merchandise line could include clothing items inspired by her iconic looks, as well as accessories and collectibles that resonate with her fans. Kanye West, Jay-Z, Pharrell Williams, Rihanna, and Drake have all done this.

    Beauty and Fragrance Products

    Given the ever-growing popularity of celebrity-endorsed beauty products, if Taylor ventures into the beauty industry, she could develop a line of cosmetics or fragrances that reflect her personal taste and values, creating a connection with consumers who admire her not just for her music but also for her sense of individuality. Lady Gaga’s Haus Laboratories is an example.

    Socially Conscious Brand

    Building a brand with a strong social or environmental mission could align with Taylor Swift’s public persona. This could involve creating a line of products that support charitable causes or promote sustainability. A socially conscious brand would not only showcase Taylor’s commitment to making a positive impact but also resonate with consumers who prioritize ethical and responsible consumerism. Jessica Alba’s Honest Company is an example of this.

    Digital Content Platform

    Leveraging her influence and storytelling skills, Taylor Swift could consider creating a digital content platform or leverage her capital to help produce original multimedia productions. Reese Witherspoon’s Hello Sunshine is a great example of this. She helps turn books into movies.

    Book or Publishing Venture

    Speaking of books, Taylor could explore a book publishing venture, such as releasing books or collaborating on storytelling projects, could allow her to connect with fans in a new and meaningful way, extending her brand into the realm of written expression.

    With Taylor Swift’s multifaceted talents and her massive global following, a fashion and merchandise line appears to be a strong option. This choice aligns with her distinctive style, allows for creative expression, and taps into the lucrative market of celebrity-endorsed fashion. A well-designed fashion and merchandise line could not only cater to her existing fan base but also attract new audiences who appreciate her influence in the world of fashion and entertainment.
