Lucas and Luna cut through the noise of modern marketing to reveal what actually works for small businesses, freelancers, and career-changers who need a practical roadmap. Each episode tackles one core channel — SEO, email list building, Google Ads, content strategy — and breaks it down with real numbers and case studies from companies like Mailchimp, Canva, and Gimlet Media. Lucas brings journalist rigour, asking hard questions about ROI and attribution; Luna tests ideas against real-world scenarios she's seen as a consultant. Together they map out step-by-step workflows, from keyword research with free tools to A/B testing subject lines. No fluff, no 'hacks' — just the mechanics behind the campaigns that actually grew revenue. You'll walk away with a repeatable process for your next launch and a clear sense of which channels deserve your time. Can you afford to waste another month on tactics that don't convert?#ContentMarketing #SEO #BrandStrategy #EmailMarketing #GoogleAds #SocialM

How Patagonia Built a Brand on Anti-Consumerism
Sep 13, 202614 minS4
In this episode, Lucas and Luna dissect how Patagonia turned its anti-consumerist stance into one of the most profitable marketing strategies in modern history. We explore the specific mechanics behind their 'Don't Buy This Jacket' campaign from 2011, analyzing why telling customers not to purchase a product actually drove sales up by thirty percent. The hosts break down the psychological shift from transactional loyalty to ideological alignment, using data from the company's annual footprints reports. You will learn how radical transparency in supply chains builds trust that generic advertising cannot buy. We also look at the recent decision to transfer ownership of the entire company to a trust dedicated to fighting climate change, examining what that means for long-term brand equity. This is a case study in values-driven marketing that goes far beyond simple corporate social responsibility. #Patagonia #AntiConsumerism #BrandStrategy #MarketingCaseStudy #SustainableBusiness #CorporateEthics #ConsumerPsychology #SupplyChainTransparency #LoyaltyMarketing #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #MarketingMadeSimple #EthicalBranding #ClimateAction #BrandEquity #CustomerTrust #RetailStrategy #ValuesDriven Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
In this episode of Marketing Made Simple, Lucas and Luna explore the counterintuitive genius of Patagonia’s Worn Wear program. Rather than pushing new gear, the outdoor retailer invites customers to repair and resell used items, turning sustainability into a loyalty engine. We break down how this anti-marketing strategy drove double-digit growth in secondary markets while reinforcing brand trust. Learn why admitting imperfection can be the most powerful marketing move a company can make, and how small businesses can apply similar principles to build authentic community engagement. #Patagonia #WornWear #SustainableMarketing #CircularEconomy #BrandLoyalty #AntiConsumerism #RepairCulture #ResaleMarket #EthicalBusiness #CustomerRetention #Greenwashing #BrandTrust #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #MarketingStrategy #DigitalStrategy #SEO #BrandingTips Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
HubSpot’s founder Brian Halligan made a counterintuitive bet in the late two thousands: stop interrupting customers with cold calls and ads, and instead make your content so helpful that they find you. This episode traces how HubSpot turned SEO and free educational tools into a billion dollar inbound marketing engine. We look at the specific mechanics of their freemium model, how they redefined the sales funnel, and why this strategy now dominates digital marketing for small businesses. Lucas and Luna break down the data behind inbound versus outbound performance. #HubSpot #InboundMarketing #BrianHalligan #DigitalStrategy #ContentMarketing #SaaS #SEO #FreemiumModel #SalesFunnel #CustomerAcquisition #MarketingAutomation #B2BSales #GrowthHacking #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #Entrepreneurship #TechHistory #MarketingMadeSimple Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo

Every question we get asked before someone starts their trial.
If you have a concern about deliverability, AI quality, data privacy, or whether this will actually work for your specific situation, it's probably answered below.
What is the difference between Founder Solo and Founder Pro?
Founder Solo gives you 50 AI pitches per month using the credit model (Standard pitches cost 1 credit, Enriched pitches cost 2). Founder Pro raises that to 200 credits per month and adds full Booking Probability access, unlimited Magic Match, Apollo enrichment credits, and data export capabilities. Both plans use the same credit system, so you can stretch your monthly budget further by using Standard-mode drafting.
How do agency tiers work?
Agency tiers have no base fee. You pay per managed client and per talent profile. Agency Standard is $199 per client per month; Agency Pro is $399 per client per month. Both add $39 per talent profile per month. Your own team's user seats are always free.
What is a talent profile?
A talent profile represents one person (founder, executive, or spokesperson) you are booking onto podcasts. It includes their bio, topics, headshots, and outreach history. Team plans include 5 profiles; agency plans are pay-as-you-go.
Can I switch plans later?
Yes, at any time. Upgrades take effect immediately; downgrades apply at the end of the current billing period. Contact support if you need help migrating between plan families.
Do you offer a free trial?
Every paid plan includes a 15-day free trial. Your card is saved at signup but you will not be charged until day 16. Cancel any time from your dashboard.
What happens if I cancel?
You keep access until the end of your current billing period. No charges after that. Your data is retained for 30 days in case you reactivate.
Is the 20% annual discount automatic?
Yes. Select Annual on the pricing toggle and the discounted price is applied automatically at checkout. The annual price shown is the full year cost.
What if I have more than 50 profiles or 20 clients?
That is our Enterprise tier. Contact our sales team and we will build a custom plan with volume pricing, a dedicated account manager, and SLA guarantees.
