  where did the taste and culture go in your ads mr ecom bro? skincare social facts that are not compressible to 5 bullets that you may want to know. Every skincare brand is a method of intervention into someone's habitus. If you don't know what habitus is don't worry you're in good company with about 97% of the people posting ROAS screenshots on your feed right now. But if you DO know what it means, or if the word just sparked something in you, keep reading because this is going to reframe how you think about your brand in a way that no CRO audit or creative playbook ever will Habitus is a sociology concept. Bourdieu. The idea that people don't make decisions in a vacuum. They make decisions inside an inherited structure of dispositions, tastes, reflexes, class signals, parenting patterns, and embodied behaviors that they didn't choose and mostly can't see. It's not just "what someone does." It's why they do it without thinking. Why a suburban mom instinctively reaches for the thing that looks medical. Why a 15 year old boy literally cannot bring himself to care about a skincare routine even though his face is falling apart. Why a girlfriend buys a product FOR her boyfriend instead of just telling him to buy it himself. I've been thinking about this because I recently spent about 32k on ads for a skincare brand. Made 44k back. ugly numbers. I spent weeks reading Reddit threads. For VOICE research. How do these different actors talk about the same problem? The 16 year old boy says "bro my face is cooked 💀"His mom writes three paragraphs with perfect grammar ending in "TIA!" because she was raised to be polite even when she's desperate His girlfriend says "I literally bought my boyfriend this thing and he actually used it??? And his skin is clearing up??? I'm shook" Three completely different registers. Three completely different methods of intervention. Three completely different ads. Same product. That's applied sociology with a credit card attached.. ooo… aahhhh (new big idea) And look I know saying "habitus" and "method of intervention" is going to make some people click away and that's the point. If you read "habitus" and your eyes glazed over, this probably isn't for you. You probably want the 7-step ecom scaling playbook. You probably want me to tell you to fix your upsell sequence and test more hooks and increase your AOV. And hey those things matter. I'm not saying they don't maybe the issue isn't the ads. Maybe the issue is that you don't actually understand the social fabric your product exists inside of. Maybe you're marketing face wash to teenagers when the actual buyer is a 42 year old woman lying in bed with her reading glasses on trying to be a good mom. Maybe you're writing copy in YOUR voice when you should be writing copy in HER voice. Maybe you've never once considered that your product's primary function isn't cosmetic — it's relational. It's the thing that lets a mother feel like she did her job. It's the thing that lets a girlfriend feel like she helped without overstepping. It's the thing that lets a kid stand up straight for the first time in a year without knowing why You ever see a kid who used to hunch over and suddenly they're standing open? Chest out, not in an aggressive way, just... present? Something changed. Something clicked. When someone's mom hands them a face wash and three weeks later they look in the mirror and don't flinch for the first time in two years? That's a kid standing up straight not because someone told him to but because he finally has a reason to want to be seen. The mom feels it. She doesn't say anything because she's wise enough to know that acknowledging it would make it weird. But she sees her son lean into a photo instead of ducking out and she quietly falls apart in the other room because that's what moms do. They hold it together in front of you and they break down in private over the smallest signs that their kid MIGHT be okay. My mind is on the first domino Because if your ads are talking about formulations and percentages and active ingredients and clinical results, you're speaking to the 3% of your market that is solution-aware and ingredient-literate. And that 3% is the most expensive, most skeptical, hardest-to-convert segment of your TAM. You're fighting over them with every other brand in the category. The other 97% is moms and girlfriends and partners and kids who have no idea what benzoyl peroxide is and don't care. They care about the feeling. They care about the moment. They care about handing their son a bottle and having the acne conversation be OVER Most skincare brands are having a chemistry conversation with people who are having an emotional one The 32k to 44k is the proof of concept. the first domino. end of thought.

  @bjmtweets Today I read how iOS app usage has been declining in last 6-7 months. Revenue may also follow. The fear is real. My(like many other people) usage of Reddit has been down since ChatGPT takes all summarized answer from Reddit and gives me. I go to Reddit to read some real rants.

  @ChrisBang5izg Reddit seems especially valuable for SaaS because you're reaching people who are already discussing the problem you're solving, rather than trying to create demand from scratch. I'll definitely double down on that. Thanks

  Quick disclaimer, we made this Reddit post ourselves, it isn't a real thread. The point holds though. Most brands aren't short on talented teams. They're short on a way for those teams to share what they find. Fix that and the same people start producing better numbers.

  If you 100% believe on that reddit post then so be it but please stop convincing others to do so too. Again it was full of OPINIONS, and every person have different one. From the very beginning of this issue a lot of you would say that we all should think rational abt it+

  @arthuryuzbashew Whenever I try to use Reddit it says "server error" and is always intensely slow. What gives?

  @MiloMurphyXD @BrandonFM_YT Also if you want to prove any sort of point, stop invading private instances of entirely friends that sure, might have some dark or unsettling tastes in humor, but it is entirely their freedom to do such in their private groups, and go to actual public spaces and find people doing this openly. Gonna kick down the door to someone's xbox game session in the privacy of their own living room with their boys talking about how they gonna shove a **** in their *** their next time they miss a headshot and make random *** comments about "that aint a nice thing to say"? Take off the reddit mod fedora.

  @PepeJesus117 Yeah thats fair pushback, but my issue isn’t just with the overall numbers, it’s the content of the reviews that concern me. There is a lot of corroboration on some very concerning allegations across there and on Reddit in relation to billing practices and clinical practice Maybe you are right and it’s a small, malicious sub section of angry bitter people, but whenever Iv seen your typical “review bomb” crowd it’s usually masses of low effort one liners with a 1 star rating. This feels a lot more than that Combine that with other transparency issues and the FTC litigation and you have something that is at least worthy of consideration

  @Powerpoint_TF2 @ke_keroscene The only big issue I have with Reddit is not allowing direct uploads for videos with NSFW communities

  @alexisohanian @Reddit (and Spez) If you didn’t already know you have a huge toxicity problem at Reddit bc of your mods banning people, the @sophaller situation should prove that without a doubt! Reddits toxicity problem is created from having these horrible mods have an insane amount of power that they really shouldn’t have.

  @Reddit Reddit... The place that children go to watch porn and talk about drugs while being groomed by perverts. Should be shut down

  @berstreet No it’s plugged in to a special socket behind a nearby cabinet that isn’t a GFCI outlet. Never had this issue in three years. Super weird. I think it’s some issue with the switches in the appliance, or that’s what a bunch of reddit threads say.

  @ClayTravis Reddit is a woke company that’s losing product share and rolling downhill into financial issues
