A Patience Check, Some Tree Bark, and a Summer of Niche

Hey everyone, it’s Quin here this week!

Welcome back to another edition of Niche Weekly. First off, thank you again for being here and following along as we keep building this thing together. Whether you’ve been supporting since day one or just hopped on the Niche train recently, it means the world.

This week, I’ve got four key things I want to share with you:

• Remaining Patient is Part of the Process 🧘‍♂️
  

• Order Status and What’s Happening Behind the Scenes 📦
  

• A Closer Look at Tree Bark Extract 🌿
  

• My Plans for Summer and What That Means for Niche ☀️

Remaining Patient is Part of the Process 🧘‍♂️
The waiting game is tough. Whether you preordered early, grabbed a sample, or are just keeping up with the updates, I know things might feel like they’re moving slowly.

Truth is, they kind of are but for the all right reasons. We’re making decisions carefully, testing thoroughly, and only moving forward with things that meet the standard we’ve set from the beginning: bold energy, clean ingredients, and zero compromises.

This phase takes patience. And I just want to say thank you to everyone who’s still here, showing love, engaging in our posts, and trusting this process. Niche was never about rushing. It’s about doing it right.

Order Status and What’s Happening Behind the Scenes 📦
Right now, we’re in a bit of a holding pattern while we wait for the final formula of our Mango Pineapple flavor to be made. That’s the big next step, and once we have that in hand, we can start prepping for production.

At the same time, we’re still working on the finishing touches for our packaging and label designs. These things matter more than people realize. From the way the tub feels in your hand to how the label reflects our values, we want it all to be sharp.

Our custom shaker bottles are also still in route, which means we’re holding off on launching any full fulfillment system until all the puzzle pieces are in place. It’s not the fastest route, but it’s the one that ensures quality and consistency.

Your trust is the foundation of this brand, and I take that seriously.

A Closer Look at Tree Bark Extract 🌿
A little change of gears here but let’s talk ingredients for a second. One of the lesser-known stars in our formula is tree bark extract, specifically pine bark extract.

This stuff is amazing. It’s been studied for its antioxidant properties and its ability to improve blood flow, reduce oxidative stress, and support endurance. For a pre-workout, that means better pumps, longer sessions, and improved recovery, all without the crash you get from overly caffeinated products. Sounds pretty awesome to me.

We include ingredients like this because Niche is about more than just a quick boost. It’s about sustainable, effective energy that supports your entire lifestyle.

My Plans for Summer and What That Means for Niche ☀️
I just finished up my second year at South Carolina, so I’m officially home from college and fully focused on Niche for the summer. That means more content, more sampling, more behind-the-scenes progress, and way more time to connect with all of you.

However, no matter where you’re checking in from, keep your eyes out. Wyatt and I will really be locking in on the Niche side of things this summer. Whether you’re a longtime supporter or just curious about the product, stay tuned.

This summer is about scaling Niche the right way. With real energy, real people, and real impact.

That’s all for now. I appreciate you being part of this.

Let me know what you think, shoot me a DM, or reply to this email to say what’s up. Big things ahead!
