Movie trailers figured this out years ago: don't show everything at once.

Dippin' Daisy's took the same approach with Club Ibiza.

Instead of dropping the entire collection in a single email, they rolled it out over multiple sends. Teasers, countdowns, print reveals, SMS alerts. Each touchpoint revealed a little more and gave subscribers a reason to come back for the next one.

By the time launch day arrived, customers already knew the prints, the colors, and the vibe of the collection.

Today we're breaking down the rollout, what's working, and the opportunities Dippin' Daisy's missed along the way.

Good news: You've already built most of next month's emails.

Bad news: you're probably going to rebuild them anyway.

Scroll through your last few campaigns. Notice anything?

Same products, same offers, same reviews, same CTAs. 

The only thing that changed? How you arranged them.

So why are you still opening a blank canvas every Monday?

Paid media solved this years ago with libraries of assets, smart systems assembling the winning combo for every audience.

Meanwhile email is a decade behind.

Allan fixes that. Upload your headlines, images, offers, and copy once.

Dippin' Daisy's Club Ibiza Launch: Building Anticipation Before the Drop

Most swimwear launches focus on the product.

Dippin' Daisy's focuses on the destination.

The Club Ibiza campaign isn't selling bikinis right away. It's selling a mood, a season, and an identity. By the time subscribers see the full collection, they've already spent days immersed in the world Dippin' Daisy's created around it.

Let’s get into it. 

1. Club Ibiza Is Calling

Focus: Introducing the collection and building curiosity

Why This Works:

• Strong destination-inspired creative immediately establishes the collection theme

• Reveals just enough to generate curiosity without giving away the full assortment

• Creates anticipation through mood and storytelling rather than discounts

• The collection feels like an event, not just another product drop

What Needs Work:

• The email focuses heavily on the vibe but offers little insight into the actual products

• No waitlist or VIP signup opportunity for highly engaged shoppers

• Product categories remain vague, making it difficult to know what's coming

2. SMS: Club Ibiza Has Arrived

Focus: Immediate launch notification

Why This Works:

• Short, direct message that gets to the point quickly

• Complements the email campaign instead of duplicating long-form content

• Creates instant awareness the moment the collection becomes available

• Strong channel choice for a time-sensitive announcement

What Needs Work:

• Doesn't reinforce what makes Club Ibiza different from previous launches

• Misses an opportunity to reference early demand or limited inventory

• Could lean harder into exclusivity for subscribers receiving the first access

3. 2 Days Until Club Ibiza

Focus: Building momentum ahead of launch day

Why This Works:

• Countdown framing gives subscribers a specific date to remember

• Postcard-style creative reinforces the travel-inspired theme

• Continues revealing the collection without showing everything at once

• Keeps anticipation growing without relying on urgency tactics

What Needs Work:

• Product benefits remain secondary to aesthetics

• Doesn't spotlight any hero products that customers should watch for

• More product education around fit or fabric could strengthen purchase intent

4. Club Ibiza Has Arrived

Focus: Official collection launch

Why This Works:

• Clean transition from teaser campaign to shopping experience

• Product assortment is displayed clearly without feeling overwhelming

• Strong visual consistency from previous emails creates campaign cohesion

• Collection branding feels premium and distinct

What Needs Work:

• No social proof despite several days of anticipation leading up to launch

• Doesn't identify bestsellers or standout pieces for first-time shoppers

• Product storytelling takes a backseat to visuals

5. Selling Fast: Club Ibiza

Focus: Creating urgency after launch

Why This Works:

• Uses demand rather than discounts to motivate action

• Reinforces collection popularity and momentum

• Keeps the campaign fresh by shifting from launch messaging to inventory messaging

• Gives shoppers a reason to stop waiting

What Needs Work:

• Doesn't identify which products or sizes are actually selling out

• Urgency would feel stronger with specific inventory indicators

• Customer reviews or early purchase reactions could reinforce demand

6. Meet The Prints

Focus: Product education and collection exploration

Why This Works:

• Gives each print its own identity within the collection

• Helps shoppers navigate the assortment more easily

• Extends the campaign beyond launch day with fresh content

• Makes the collection feel more thoughtful and curated

What Needs Work:

• Product education arrives after many shoppers may have already purchased

• Doesn't dive deeply into the inspiration behind each print

• Could include styling recommendations or matching-set suggestions

What Dippin' Daisy's Gets Right

They Build Familiarity Before Launch: By the time subscribers can shop the collection, they've already spent several days getting familiar with the colors, prints, and overall aesthetic. That makes launch day feel less like a discovery moment and more like the payoff.

The Campaign Feels Cohesive: Every email feels connected. The visuals, messaging, and travel-inspired creative work together to create a campaign that feels bigger than a single collection release.

Anticipation Replaces Discounting: Dippin' Daisy's never needs to rely on promotional pricing to create excitement. The campaign generates interest through storytelling and gradual reveals instead.

Where They Miss the Mark

Product Education Comes Late: Subscribers spend a lot of time learning about the vibe of Club Ibiza, but relatively little time learning about the products themselves.

Social Proof Is Missing: This collection is highly visual and naturally lends itself to customer content, but the campaign rarely leverages reviews, UGC, or customer reactions.

Urgency Lacks Specificity: "Selling fast" is effective, but showing exactly what's running low would create a stronger reason to act.

Final Takeaway

Dippin' Daisy's understands that anticipation is part of the product experience.

Rather than treating launch day as the entire event, they use multiple touchpoints to gradually introduce the collection and build familiarity before customers ever reach the product page.

The result is a launch that feels intentional, memorable, and bigger than a single email announcement.

Key Takeaways for Brands

✔ Build familiarity before launch day arrives
✔ Use countdowns and teasers to create momentum without relying on discounts
✔ Keep campaign creative consistent across every touchpoint
✔ Give products their own identity through storytelling and collection themes
✔ Balance anticipation with product education
✔ Make urgency more specific by highlighting low-stock products or bestsellers
✔ Treat launch day as one moment within a larger campaign, not the entire campaign itself

The Klaviyo rebuild that's been on your to-do list for a year? Omnisend will do it in 5 days.

Picture your current Klaviyo account: 14 flows you forgot you built, three segments named "test 2," a welcome series from 2022 nobody's touched since launch. Now picture someone else rebuilding all of it on a clean platform, by hand, while you keep sending on your current account until the day you flip the switch.

• Up to 4 automations rebuilt with 3 templates each

• 5 custom segments recreated to match your old setup

• 3 signup forms or popups ported over

• Master email template rebuilt to your brand

• Contacts imported in 1 to 24 hours, full migration done in 5 business days

• Up to 35% less expensive than your current bill

Five days, someone else does the work. The hard part of switching just stopped being hard.

Meme drop

 RIP to the em dash... you are missed. 💔

The drop zone:

Snack Buddies launches mini muffins with a sneaky twist

Kids get the muffin. Parents get the vegetables.

Snack Buddies just launched a line of mini muffins packed with hidden veggies, 5g of protein, and half the sugar of traditional options. The lineup includes four flavors, is completely nut-free, and starts at $9.99 per box. Preorders are open now, with shipping scheduled for July.

Magic Spoon expands beyond cereal

Magic Spoon is taking its high-protein breakfast positioning into a new aisle.

The brand just launched instant oatmeal in Maple Brown Sugar, Apple Cinnamon, and Banana Bread. Each serving packs 15g of protein and just 1g of sugar. Pricing starts at $32, or $25.57 with a subscription. It's a natural extension for a brand that's already earned trust with breakfast shoppers.

Takeaways wants to reinvent the protein snack aisle

Protein bars had a good run. Takeaways is betting on cheese.

The brand launched puffed cheese snack sticks with 12g of protein and 120 calories per serving. Flavors include You Cheddar Believe It, Pepper Jacked, and Slice Slice Baby. As more consumers look for savory protein options, Takeaways is carving out its own lane.

Barebells drops candy and sells out fast

Barebells is known for protein bars. Now it's coming for the candy aisle too.

The brand launched soft candy in Sour Cola, Watermelon, and Peach Rings, each bag containing 95% less sugar than traditional candy. The variety pack sold out almost immediately, proving there's plenty of demand for better-for-you treats that don't feel like a compromise.
