How hard would it be to buy the licensing rights for the gigachad (Ernest Khalimov) pictures from Sleek n' Tears (without telling them what it's for, or lying) and then making dakimakuras (those anime body pillows) with them? I think someone with lots of experience in business would be able to make millions just from the meme.

The target market would be people who like the memes and maybe some kinds of women.

Also have in mind that dakimakuras are high profit margin luxury goods, priced above one or two hundred dollars or more. You don't need a million customers to hit it big.

Lmao if you succeed you'd probably a few hundred thousands at minimum.

Probably not hard, if you are willing to offer enough money. It might be hard to make a profit. though.

And they're probably smart enough to know it's somehow meme-connected.

Wrong. Target audience would be women who buy sex toys. Sex toys for women is a small, but not tiny market. Initially maybe a few hundred would be bought by memesters but this thing could be marketed to sex shops that are completely unaware of the memes. The market for body pillows could expand by greatly by including women as a target.

>>target audience: millions of lonely NEETS all over the world[...]
Whatever amount of lonely neets there is there's 10x the amount of lonely women. Especially these days that most men are disgusting beta pussies they'd never date. The potential for profit is huge. It'd literally be one viral Instagram campaign from happening. Just give it to a few of the most popular Instathot influencers and make them make a post like "lol I hate men, I prefer my Ernest Pillow™" or something a little more subtle.

Oh yeah. And really, you'd be better off just going to directly to Khalimov. Making a 3-D image from a 2-D picture, without his permission is asking for a lawsuit.

>>17471584
Surely if there is a market for uber-hunk body pillows, it's already been satisfied. It's not like Khalimov is physically unique, or anything.
