"Fake PRs can build castles in the air, but reality always finds a way to tear them down. True success doesn’t need exaggeration—it speaks for itself. Many D2C brands, even after failing, keep promoting themselves through vanity metrics, influencer-driven narratives, and rebranded success stories just to stay relevant. But relevance without substance is just noise waiting to fade."
