4 Stage 1: Awareness - Sparking Interest The primary objective is to identify and attract authentic Gen Z streetwear enthusiasts interested in the brand. Utilize Reels and Carousels showcasing street-style and sneaker culture to capture audience attention and create engagement. Create a limited drops with a hip-hop,Indian vibe which can make people excited to get the product. Direct viewers to 'Follow Us' or 'Learn More,' avoiding direct DM prompts to build brand recognition and follower base first.

Employ Reels, Stories, Carousels, and Click-to-DM ads to prompt direct engagement and facilitate conversations with prospects. Use a clear and enticing call to action, such as 'DM us to Cop ,' to encourage potential customers to initiate contact. Implement auto-replies for frequently asked questions (e.g., price/size) to efficiently filter leads and provide instant information. Adopt a hyped, casual tone, ensuring clear and transparent communication about pricing to meet customer expectations.
