Adaptability is a Business Strategy and a Personal Growth Hack
This week, BBC recently reported a jaw-dropping business twist: Pop Mart, the company behind the viral Labubu dolls, is expecting a 350% profit spike for the first half of 2025. A niche toy brand is outperforming big tech names — not because of luck, but because of adaptability.
How does this apply to you? Let’s talk about Anita.
Anita used to work as a mid-level sales associate in a local fashion chain. When her company shifted operations online, she was overwhelmed. Colleagues resisted the change, some even quit. However, Anita chose to adapt. She learned e-commerce tools, took a customer psychology course, and started testing social media strategies to boost sales.
Within 8 months, she was promoted to regional lead for digital strategy.
Just like Pop Mart didn’t stick to selling toys in stores , Anita didn’t stick to old methods either. She pivoted, adapted and won.
Pop Mart’s lesson? The World Rewards Adaptability.
The company moved fast , from vending machines to celebrity partnerships with Kim Kardashian and Lisa from BLACKPINK. When demand surged, they didn’t fold. They scaled. They even entered global markets and navigated counterfeit threats. Today, they’re not just a toy brand — they’re a movement.
As markets change, so must we. And that’s not a corporate slogan , that’s a survival skill.
