Using the example of a beauty brand that noticed a rise in 'skin cycling' discussions on Reddit and TikTok, they explain how brands can turn small observations into product innovations. The hosts also discuss the importance of distinguishing between fleeting fads and lasting shifts, and they share practical tips for setting up trend-watching workflows.
