  • How Liquid Death Turned Canned Water Into a Marketing Funnel

    How Liquid Death Turned Canned Water Into a Marketing Funnel
    2026/06/07
    In this episode of The Marketing Funnel Podcast, Lucas and Luna dive into how Liquid Death Mountain Water built a multi-million dollar marketing funnel by selling canned water with a punk-rock attitude. They examine the brand's awareness playbook: irreverent social media, viral stunts like selling 'murdered' water bottles, and partnerships with metal bands. At the interest stage, Liquid Death uses dark humor and a 'kill your thirst' tagline to create a cult-like following. The hosts break down how the brand converts curiosity into purchases through limited-edition flavors and collector's art cans—boasting over $100 million in revenue by 2025. They also analyze the decision stage, where Liquid Death leverages scarcity and a subscription model, and the action stage, where community-driven events like 'Deathstock' keep customers engaged long after the first sip. Specific data points include a 400% year-over-year growth in 2024 and a 30% repeat purchase rate. Tune in for a case study in turning a commoditized product into a lifestyle brand. #LiquidDeath #CannedWater #MarketingFunnel #AIDA #ViralMarketing #BrandBuilding #Scarcity #SubscriptionModel #PunkRock #SocialMedia #Stunts #Humor #LimitedEdition #Community #RevenueGrowth #Marketing #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo

    2026/06/07
    Episode 36 of The Marketing Funnel Podcast explores the dark side of Net Promoter Score.

They explain why NPS often fails to capture true customer loyalty and how companies can use more nuanced metrics to build a healthier funnel. The episode includes a concrete case of a company that lost its way by chasing NPS targets, and practical advice for marketers on when to trust (and when to ignore) the single-question survey. #NPS #NetPromoterScore #CustomerLoyalty #MarketingMetrics #Tesla #CustomerSatisfaction #FunnelMetrics #MarketingStrategy #BusinessPodcast #FexingoBusiness #MarketingFunnel #CustomerExperience #LTV #Churn #SurveyFatigue #Retention #WordOfMouth #Detractors Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo

  • How HubSpot Engineered Inbound Marketing Into a Funnel

    How HubSpot Engineered Inbound Marketing Into a Funnel
    2026/06/06
    Episode 35 of The Marketing Funnel Podcast looks at how HubSpot built its entire business model around the inbound marketing funnel. Lucas and Luna trace the journey from the original 'Marketing Grader' tool that drove top-of-funnel awareness to the freemium product that captured leads, then the certification program that locked in loyalty. They discuss how HubSpot inverted the traditional outbound funnel by giving away high-value educational content, why the 'flywheel' metaphor replaced the funnel internally, and whether inbound still works in 2026 when everyone is publishing. Specific numbers include the 2012 IPO filing data on customer acquisition cost and lifetime value, and how HubSpot Academy drove over 100,000 certifications per year. A tight case study in building a funnel on generosity. #HubSpot #InboundMarketing #MarketingFunnel #Freemium #HubSpotAcademy #Flywheel #CustomerAcquisition #ContentMarketing #BrianHalligan #DharmeshShah #SaaSMarketing #MarketingGrader #LTV #CAC #GrowthStrategy #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #Marketing Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo

  • How Lululemon Built a Funnel Through Community

    How Lululemon Built a Funnel Through Community
    2026/06/06
    Lucas and Luna examine Lululemon's unique marketing funnel, which turned local yoga studios and grassroots ambassadors into a global community-driven brand. They explore how the company's 'educator' model, free in-store classes, and ambassador program created a top-of-funnel that didn't rely on traditional advertising. Specific metrics: Lululemon's 40,000+ ambassadors worldwide, its 2% marketing spend as a percentage of revenue compared to industry average of 6-8%, and the 2013 decision to pull out of a major ad campaign to reinvest in community events. The hosts discuss how this funnel has evolved post-2020 with digital community building, and what other brands can learn from the strategy. #Lululemon #MarketingFunnel #CommunityMarketing #BrandAmbassadors #RetailStrategy #Athleisure #CustomerLoyalty #WordOfMouth #SocialProof #ExperientialMarketing #DigitalCommunity #TopOfFunnel #BrandBuilding #ChicAndConscious #BusinessPodcast #FexingoBusiness #Marketing #Podcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo

  • How Ferrari Built a Marketing Funnel on Scarcity

    How Ferrari Built a Marketing Funnel on Scarcity
    2026/06/05
    Lucas and Luna break down how Ferrari turned scarcity into a marketing funnel. By producing fewer cars than demand and tightly controlling who can buy a limited-edition model like the LaFerrari, Ferrari creates desirability at every stage of the AIDA model. They discuss how Ferrari's waitlist acts as a top-of-funnel filter, how the brand cultivates interest through racing heritage and invite-only events, how the decision stage is shaped by resale restrictions, and how the action stage requires proof of loyalty. Lucas shares a specific number: Ferrari's average customer waits 18 months for a new car, and they argue this deliberate pain point actually increases purchase intent. They also examine the risk of alienating younger buyers and whether the strategy works for non-luxury brands. The episode ends with a light donation segment tied to the idea of scarcity making moments feel worth it. #Ferrari #MarketingFunnel #ScarcityMarketing #LuxuryBrands #AIDA #WaitlistStrategy #BrandExclusivity #LaFerrari #LimitedEdition #CustomerLoyalty #ResaleValue #Desirability #FOMO #PricingPower #AutomotiveMarketing #BusinessPodcast #FexingoBusiness #Marketing Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo

  • How Luxury Brands Tighten the Funnel With Scarcity

    How Luxury Brands Tighten the Funnel With Scarcity
    2026/06/05
    Episode 32 of The Marketing Funnel Podcast examines how luxury brands like Hermès and Rolex deliberately narrow their marketing funnels at the awareness and interest stages to increase perceived value. Lucas and Luna discuss the concept of 'contrived scarcity' — limiting supply to drive demand — and how it contrasts with traditional funnel optimization. They break down Hermès's iconic Birkin bag strategy, where no advertising exists and waitlists are opaque, yet the brand achieves astronomical margins. The episode also touches on Rolex's approach to authorized dealers and the psychology of waiting. A key point: this only works if the brand's quality truly supports the scarcity narrative. Listeners will learn why shrinking the top of the funnel can be a winning strategy for the right product and how to apply scarcity without damaging trust. #MarketingFunnel #LuxuryMarketing #ScarcityStrategy #Hermes #Rolex #BirkinBag #BrandStrategy #PricingPsychology #ContrivedScarcity #Exclusivity #LuxuryBrands #DemandGeneration #FunnelOptimization #MarketingPodcast #BusinessPodcast #FexingoBusiness #Episode32 #Marketing Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo

  • How Allbirds Lost Its Marketing Funnel Magic

    How Allbirds Lost Its Marketing Funnel Magic
    2026/06/04
    Episode 31 of The Marketing Funnel Podcast unpacks Allbirds' rise and fall as a marketing-led brand. Lucas and Luna trace how the sneaker startup built awareness through celebrity endorsements and a 'sustainable materials' story, then struggled to convert interest into repeat purchases. They examine the gap between Allbirds' top-of-funnel hype and its middle-of-funnel retention problem, using specific numbers: a reported 40% decline in repeat customer sales by 2024 and the company's shift from direct-to-consumer to wholesale. The hosts debate whether the brand's functional marketing—focusing on wool and tree fiber—could have sustained growth, or if the funnel was always destined to leak. A tight, skeptical look at what happens when awareness outpaces product stickiness. #Allbirds #SustainableFashion #SneakerMarketing #DTC #MarketingFunnel #BrandStickiness #CustomerRetention #AwarenessStage #ConversionProblem #CelebrityMarketing #EcoBranding #DirectToConsumer #WholesaleShift #Marketing #BusinessPodcast #FexingoBusiness #TheMarketingFunnel #LucasAndLuna Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
