How to Build a Brand Without Making Anything

The best brands don't start with a product. They start with taste.
How do you build a brand without making anything? By selling curation first. In this video I break down how DJs, gallerists, record shops, and stores like End. and Goodhood built trust through taste, and how Hidden.NY turned a moodboard into a streetwear brand people were primed to buy from.
We cover building a brand from zero, why brand curation is your unfair advantage in the AI era, the two models, curation as the destination vs curation as the funnel, and how to use brand strategy and audience building to launch later with demand already built in.
If you're into branding, brand identity, clothing brands, and how modern brands actually get built, this is for you.
