S13 E8: What the Best Brands Are Doing (And You Should Do It, Too)
Manage episode 502825000 series 3373337
Nik gets real about what it takes to build a brand that actually works in 2025.
The so-called “meta decline” isn’t killing ads, but bad creative and weak messaging are.
The brands winning today? They know how to turn customers into clients, build community, and create content that people actually care about.
Is a $2,500 budget enough? If you use it wisely, yes. Plus, learn how to crack organic growth before spending a dime on ads and spot product-market fit problems before they sink you.
And, Nik explains why whitelisting still crushes, how to test landing pages without wasting money, and what founder-led content should really look like.
If you’re looking to scale (or even stop burning cash), this is the episode for you.
