The Inverted Model
We Buy Your Products. You Get the Exposure.
"How do we reach the Ultra-High-Net-Worth individual—
without paying a fortune for passive impressions
that never convert?"
Traditional luxury marketing costs $3,200+ per acquired customer.
89% of Instagram campaigns targeting HNWIs show negative ROI.
For decades, brands have paid properties, platforms, and partnerships for the privilege of reaching wealthy consumers.

The brand absorbs all the risk. The platform captures all the value.
FabFitFun generates $600 million annually with 2+ million subscribers. Brands provide products at or below cost—or even free—to reach this audience.
The result? Mass-market exposure to aspirational consumers. Average household income: $75,000. Conversion to premium purchases: minimal.
For 16+ years, Bulgari has partnered with Emirates to provide amenity kits in First Class. Each kit contains 30ml of exclusive fragrance worth $100+ retail.
The partnership is prestigious—but Bulgari bears the product cost for the privilege of association. The airline captures the prestige. The brand pays for placement.

When your product is discovered aboard a $65 million superyacht or a Gulfstream G650, a psychological phenomenon occurs.
The prestige of the asset transfers to your brand. The guest doesn't see a skincare product— they see a peer to the yacht itself. This is Distribution as Impression.
"If the yacht captain trusts this sunscreen, it must be the best."
A guest on a yacht charter interacts with bathroom amenities 2–3 times daily for 7 days.
No television ad, no magazine spread, no Instagram post can match this frequency and intimacy.
When a guest uses your body wash while showering after a swim in the Mediterranean...
That scent becomes permanently linked to the memory of their best vacation ever.
They will buy that product for life—to recapture that feeling.
This is not advertising. This is emotional anchoring at the neurological level.
Combined addressable market: $110+ Billion
Branded towel, signature scent, artisan glassware—the first impression.
Refreshing face mist, hair ties, polarized sunglasses wipes—arrival essentials.
Luxury kit placed on captain's chair—lip balm, cashmere socks, sleep mask.
Full-size Acqua di Parma or Le Labo replacing generic amenities.
Scented sachets placed in drawers as staff unpacks guest luggage.
Premium SPF, after-sun oil, reef-safe formulas for conscious luxury.
Artisan snacks, branded candle, cashmere throw on kitchen island.
Sleep spray, silk pillowcase, night serum—the bedtime ritual.
100 loyal UHNW clients are worth more than 100,000 passive impressions.
*Cost of amenity kit per guest. Brand cost: $0. We purchase your products.
In private charters, guests submit a "Preference Sheet"— their exact brand requirements for the voyage. Jo Malone soap. San Pellegrino water. Crème de la Mer.
When a guest discovers your brand as a "Welcome Gift" and loves it... they write YOUR brand on their next Preference Sheet.
Marketing expense → Revenue stream.
The yacht now purchases your product with APA funds.
We train the gatekeepers. They become your brand ambassadors.

The UHNW demographic is increasingly eco-conscious. Plastic is taboo on yachts. Ocean-safe certification is non-negotiable. Our kits meet 2026 sustainability standards.
The most valuable real estate in luxury marketing isn't a magazine page.
It's not a billboard. It's not an Instagram feed.
It's the vanity of a $65 million yacht.
The lavatory of a Gulfstream G650.
The master bath of a $50,000/night villa.
That's where your brand belongs.
Jets flying 15+ hours. The shift from "champagne" to "wellness." Hyper-oxygenated water, circadian lighting glasses, jet lag supplements. Brands solving real travel problems win.
Virtual Preference Sheets where guests "drag and drop" amenities onto a digital twin of the yacht before they leave home. Early brand placement = default selection.
The "Conscious Capitalist" consumer demands brands that offset impact. Plant coral reefs for every bottle used. Carbon-neutral packaging. This is table stakes.
Post-pandemic, UHNW individuals are abandoning commercial first class for private assets. The audience is moving. Your brand should follow.
We purchase your products. You receive exposure to the world's most exclusive consumers.
Zero marketing spend. Zero risk. Infinite prestige.
"You have arrived. And we have been expecting you."
