Poppy Soda didn’t become a national phenomenon through massive ad buys or old-school marketing. They were a tiny brand with a big idea. What changed everything was how they showed up online. They turned an everyday beverage into a cultural moment by building a community, defining their aesthetic, and riding trend waves on TikTok until those waves became a movement. Their story shows what happens when a brand blends authenticity, personality, and strategic creativity. It proves that the right creator with the right instincts can turn a small startup into the next big thing.
