Early Access & Exclusives

Make your community feel like true insiders - giving them early access to shop sales, new launches, or create exclusive TYB items for purchase!

Creating an early access moment just for your community especially when paired with social teasers/email/SMS support has proven to perform well for brands on TYB:

  • SET Active hit $1M in one hour, with half coming in the first 15 minutes, driven by early access for their TYB community. The SET team shared the full story here — worth sending this video to your team
  • Outdoor Voices launched their Doing Things Sweatshirts exclusively on TYB Shop a week early, and sold out < 24 hours—before the full collection even dropped
  • The Outset launched their Lip Oasis early via TYB Shop, which drove their highest community sales to date on TYB
  • Topicals launched their community co-created Faded Eye Masks early on TYB Shop, selling 25% of inventory within the first few hours of the exclusive launch

Best Practices for Promoting an Exclusive Product on TYB Shop

Launching an exclusive product on TYB Shop? Here’s how to drive buzz, urgency, and community engagement:

1. Build Anticipation Ahead of Drop Day

  • Tease the product in TYB via challenges and your owned channels (social, email etc) leading up to launch
  • Share behind-the-scenes content or product sneak peeks to get members excited
  • Use language like “Community-only drop” or “Available exclusively to TYB members”

2. Promote Across Owned Channels

  • Use IG stories, email, and SMS to drive traffic to your TYB Shop or Community page and grow your community
  • Emphasize exclusivity with phrases like:
    • “Available exclusively to our community on TYB”
    • “Join the community to shop”
  • Create urgency by calling out if the drop is:
    • Limited Quantity (“Only 100 available!”)
    • Limited Time (“Live for 48 hours only!”)
    • Evergreen Exclusive (“Only on TYB, always for our community”)
  • Use strong visuals and a clear CTA to “Join & Shop Now”
