🔥 Trying to market a non-alcoholic, THC, elderflower beverage? Yeah, that’s a lot—and that’s exactly why this episode hits.
Aaron from BRÉZ breaks down how to build brand and awareness when your category is still misunderstood. This one’s a creative goldmine if you’re in beverages, wellness, or any restricted vertical.
• The Formula for Brand & Buzz⚗️:
◦ Positioning a cannabis-infused drink without being cliché
◦ Why BRÉZ refuses to compete on price
◦ How they frame the experience—not just the product
◦ What problem they’re really solving (and why that matters)
• Platform Bans? Workarounds Ahead🚫:
◦ Navigating TikTok & Meta ad restrictions
◦ Creative language tricks to avoid blocked terms
◦ Is AppLovin the secret ad weapon?
• Price = Perception💸:
◦ Why Aaron says cheap pricing cheapens the product
◦ The psychology of premium in a new space
You don’t need a THC drink to learn from this—just a desire to market smart, stand out, and build community around experience.

🔥 This one’s for the growth folks, media buyers, and CRO nerds:
@Nik Sharma breaks down one of the most slept-on levers in growth: landing pages.
• Why Most Brands Miss the Mark 🚩:
◦ It’s not your ads—it’s what happens after the click.
◦ Most landing pages don’t convert because they’re not built to.
• Nik walks through:
◦ Hero product bundles that drive AOV 📦
◦ Listicles that convert like mad 📄
◦ Lead-gen pages that actually work 🧪
◦ BYOB (build your own bundle) flows 🧰
◦ Social proof layouts that build trust fast 💬
• Educating vs. Solving :
◦ Nik breaks down why most brands stop at “awareness” and never get to action. Landing pages are your chance to close the deal.
If you’re spending on paid and not seeing ROI, this episode is your fix.
