Expand With Intention
Most brands expand because they can. Not because they're ready.
They've got the demand signals, maybe some international traffic, a few DMs from buyers in other markets. So they move.
And then they find out that what worked at home doesn't translate. Not because the product is wrong. Because the meaning didn't travel.
