The chronology of events that took place from this idea hitting me to having its website deployed to production was pretty fast. If I would have spent at-least 5 minutes thinking deeper on this idea - I would have certainly called it silly and dumped it.
Hereās the context,
Chronology of Events
- A girl posts a 3 second video on X, which goes super viral
- There are news articles calling her Bandana Girl
- It reaches 25 million plus impressions on X
- I get a random thought if bandanagirl.com has been purchased
- I quickly check - yes it was purchased. Website suggests me bandanagirl.in is available only for ~500 INR
- I purchase it, while buying I think what to do with it. Shall I just keep it or build something on it
- Then I browse X and see its going super viral hitting close to 30 million impressions now
- I think this girl ought to end up being a big personal brand with that virality
- What if I just pitch her to collaborate and build something together. I got a perfect brand, if I convince her to join we might be able to sell almost anything
- I think the goal is to be rich - this aināt a startup, this is a hack. Learning the behaviour around us and hacking reality to earn something out of it.
- I open cursor write a quick PRD - and within half an hour of back and forth ā The design, the pitch, the call to action all figured out
- Deployed the website through Netlify and configured DNS onto Cloudflare. Pointed CNAME back to Cloudflare and now the website was running on bandanagirl.in
The website
I think I got a pretty decent one made quick,

- Starting and ending handwriting prompts were a pretty good touch
- The body of messaging is not as good maybe because we do not know her viewpoint ā āearning revenues/being richā ā maybe she does not care, or else she could have monetised her X. ābuilding something togetherā ā maybe she is already building something with another partner
- Putting some ideas as cards was a good touch to help communicate what I meant
- And the CTA was my X profile - where one can check for authenticity and DM
- I did not use any framework for the website - simple HTML, CSS and a Server.JS file
Now comes the marketing part,
- Went back to X drafted a Post - nothing happened. Just a couple likes, was expecting that.
- Google searched Bandana Girl and emailed the journalist who recently wrote an article on her. No response. Good marketing idea for future projects.
- Started DMing some profiles who were engaging with the girlās post - got 3 replies and 1 follow.
- DMed the girl the website link again this time on Instagram - no response
What should I do with the domain now,
I am thinking Iāll build something, like a market place for Bandanas? Or maybe some other digital product?
