Minimalist ₹3000 Cr acquisition breakdown | Case Study | Sahil Khanna
Imagine a skincare brand that launched with a single Instagram post, never used a celebrity endorsement, avoided flashy events, and yet scaled to a ₹3000 Crore valuation in just 4 years. While the market was busy selling "fairness in 7 days," Minimalist used reverse psychology and radical transparency to win.In this video, we dive deep into the incredible business journey of Rahul Yadav and Mohit Yadav, the brothers from Jaipur who disrupted the Indian D2C skincare space.
We break down the "Minimalist Secret" into actionable business lessons:
The Pivot: How the failure of their first startup, 'Free Will,' led to the creation of Minimalist.
The Power of Honesty: Why being a "Science-first" brand worked better than being a "Natural/Organic" brand.
Marketing Without Ads: How they cleared their first stock with just 200 followers and why word-of-mouth is their biggest asset.
Controlling the Narrative: The bold move to build an in-house factory instead of outsourcing (Quality vs. Asset-light).
The HUL: Decoding the ₹3000 Crore acquisition deal with Hindustan Unilever.
D2C Metrics: Analyzing their insane 60% customer retention rate and 4x ROAS.
