I don't mean this in like the general sort of way. I mean how do YOU specifically like to discover new brands? I've lurked on this sub for awhile and l've seen plenty of threads about brand recs and I've tried a few of the most common ones I see but I want to expand beyond that. I have a tough time trusting influencers because I feel like they're always peddling their own stuff and theres so much dropshipping going on nowadays that I don't want to just buy from some completely random no name brand either. Would love some discoverability tips from you guys.
