Saw some company advertising this Neck Massager on Instagram. The prices are downright funny for the unsuspecting. The markup they want is insane.

When I saw it, I knew someone was just adding MARKETING as a skew to an existing product.

Sure enough...

Found the same products on Temu...

Step 1: Order 5000

Step 2: Create slick marketing (featuring BUFF models to grab attention) and slick packaging to take advantage of those who don't know about Temu.

Step 3: Sell for 400%-600% markup

Step 4: Pick color of Lambo (or Chevy)
