Conceptualizing a K-Beauty Pop Up Mobile for @Gabking1217

I found your "how" and "where" @Gabking1217! 🦞

Ok, now I'm just goofing around and testing my AI capabilities. (I need some work.) But I thought the idea of taking the Library Bookmobile or Taco Truck concept and transforming it into a pop up K-Beauty shop sounded fun!

If you created a Pan-Asian Beauty Mobile what would you focus on stocking with the limited space available? What would your route look like?

Gemini was struggling with the steps in and out of the mobile, lol. Here's what a truck would look like if @Mariacasino and I ever went into business together. 🤣 Do click for a close up.

Ahha ah our company motto is 100% 'The only place you should see a lobster is in a Maine roll, never on your face!' 🦞🥪 Love the Vaseline products!

Can I please join you all? At least they I'd have a reason for all the stuff I got - it's just stock!

@Bohogirl75 Aren't you also going to Korea? We might have to make you the global liaison.

@mabrina absolutely!!! This can be a world wide adventure/venture! I think mine should be "The Dewy Drop" or "KJ Beauty Bar" or "Glow & Go" ohhh or "Rolling Radiance".. any other cute possibilities?

@hazelmoss yes, going to Korea at some point next year, just don’t know when… going to try and time it around Olive Young quarterly sale though 😁 @Gabking1217 say no more, I can absolutely do the purchasing 😂

I would stock toner mists, AESTURA products, hydrating lip balm, lip stick, good concealers, heated eye masks, breath mints... and have the drive around the business district.

Ooh, breath mints. Good call. I like your wrap around freshness strategy.

@hazelmoss O M G!!!! I love it!!! Your brain is a beautiful thing indeed! Now for a business plan and all the things.... inventory, route and or parking space... how to drum up clientele and create a website so can also order online as well (wait or would that even work since most people who are more tech savy than I am already order from overseas, the online bit)...? Can do pop ups at salons, festivals, events...maybe even host private shopping parties! I would have to carry only those items we have all tried & true, normal combo dry mature and acne prone skin lovers need. Korean skincare and Japanese (although I have little to no knowledge of that just yet) and beauty! Ohhh and I have a spare bedroom at my home I can store inventory (must not be tempted to use it all or give it as gifts)! Would need to contact brands and ask about being authorized retailer possibly? The financial aspect is definitely not going to be as fun. Expenses to include importing requirements (i have no idea what US would require for this) , mark up for some sort of profit, sales goals. Woman. Thanks for getting this brain diving deeeeeep!

Girl, rent a 5x5 storage unit for stock. You can fit a lot in a 5x5. Find the people who can help: - business coach to get you started with a business plan, cheerlead through first steps, filing with state/local, etc. - Someone to build a website or an app so people can track the truck's location, communicate with you, etc. That person can also do SEO to drive traffic to your page. - Use the library: They may have a business databases with community demographic information to help you figure out a route, spending trends in a given area, etc. We literally had a team of people meet weekly at the library to plan and launch a local bookstore. - Target people like me who have delivery fatigue! You want to try a sheet mask! We got sheet masks right here! - Have fun little sample cups of lotions. - Send out mailers to large businesses, hospitals, municipalities that do staff or community events. State and county fairs, etc. - Flea markets #1 Rule: Don't worry alone! Find the people who can help with the stuff you aren't sure about.
