The DTC Marketing Podcast with Fexingo is the daily show where Lucas and Luna cut through the noise of direct-to-consumer brand strategy, Shopify optimization, and e-commerce growth — without the hype. Each episode examines a specific DTC brand's recent performance: customer acquisition costs, retention mechanics, unit economics, and the tactical decisions behind their marketing spend. Lucas, a former journalist covering retail tech, pushes for the numbers behind the narrative; Luna, a seasoned e-commerce operator, challenges assumptions with on-the-ground realities from brands like Allbirds, Glossier, and Warby Parker. Together, they dissect A/B tests that worked (and those that didn't), zero in on CAC payback periods, and debate the viability of TikTok shop vs. email flows for repeat purchase. This show is for founders, marketing leads, and growth operators who want to move beyond surface-level 'tips' and understand the actual P&L math of DTC. Expect no celebrity interviews, no 'secr

Episode #203
How DTC Brands Profit From Product Repairs
Sep 29, 202611 minS5
Direct-to-consumer brands are discovering a counterintuitive growth engine: fixing broken products. We examine how repair programs transform cost centers into loyalty drivers and recurring revenue streams. From Everlane’s transparent pricing for replacements to Patagonia’s Worn Wear model, we explore the operational shifts required to make repairs scalable. This episode breaks down the unit economics of repair versus replacement, showing why circular economy practices might be the most efficient way to lower customer acquisition costs in a saturated market. #DTCMarketing #SustainableEcommerce #CustomerLoyalty #CircularEconomy #ProductRepair #BrandStrategy #EcommerceGrowth #ShopifyTips #ConsumerBehavior #RetentionMarketing #SupplyChainInnovation #BrandTrust #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #LucasAndLuna #RetailTrends2026 #MarketingInsights #LongTermValue Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
How DTC Brands Are Building Physical Retail Without Losing Their Soul
Sep 28, 202611 minS5
Direct-to-consumer brands have spent years fighting for digital real estate, but the landscape is shifting under their feet. In this episode, we examine why companies like Allbirds and Warby Parker are pivoting from pure online play to hybrid physical retail models. We look at the specific unit economics of pop-up shops versus permanent leases, and how brands are using physical touchpoints to solve the high customer acquisition costs that plague social media advertising. Lucas breaks down the logistics of inventory allocation between channels, while Luna explores the psychological impact of tactile shopping on brand loyalty. We also discuss how smaller DTC startups can test physical presence through temporary retail partnerships without taking on massive overhead. This is not about abandoning the web; it is about creating a complete customer journey that bridges the gap between digital convenience and physical experience. #DTCBrands #RetailStrategy #EcommerceGrowth #PhysicalRetail #CustomerAcquisition #BrandLoyalty #ShopifyPlus #Omnichannel #PopUpStores #UnitEconomics #ConsumerBehavior #MarketingTrends #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #LucasAndLuna #SupplyChain #DigitalFirst #RetailInnovation Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
Why DTC Brands Are Betting on White Label Logistics
Sep 27, 20269 minS5
Most direct-to-consumer brands treat shipping as a cost center, but a shift toward white label logistics is turning delivery into a brand asset. We examine how early movers are using custom packaging and localized fulfillment to lower customer acquisition costs while increasing lifetime value. The conversation looks at the operational trade-offs of taking control of the last mile versus relying on marketplaces. This episode explores why the unboxing experience matters less than the speed and reliability of the return journey, and how small brands can access enterprise-grade logistics without enterprise-scale budgets. #DTCMarketing #EcommerceGrowth #WhiteLabelLogistics #CustomerAcquisitionCost #LifetimeValue #SupplyChainStrategy #FulfillmentCenter #BrandExperience #ShopifyPlus #ReturnsManagement #LastMileDelivery #OmnichannelRetail #BusinessPodcast #FexingoBusiness #LucasAndLuna #StartupStrategy #OperationalEfficiency #DirectToConsumer Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
Direct-to-consumer brands spent years optimizing digital funnels, but today a different metric is driving growth: physical foot traffic. We look at how the apparel brand Allbirds and the skincare line Glossier used temporary pop-up stores not just as sales channels, but as data-collection engines that fed back into their digital strategies. In this episode, we break down the unit economics of a forty-eight-hour retail activation, why customer acquisition costs dropped when they stopped running paid social ads during these events, and what other DTC founders can learn from treating physical space as a media channel rather than a warehouse. #DTCMarketing #PopUpRetail #EcommerceGrowth #CustomerAcquisition #Allbirds #Glossier #OfflineToOnline #RetailStrategy #BrandExperience #ShopifyPlus #Omnichannel #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #MarketingTrends #ConsumerBehavior #PhysicalRetail #DigitalStrategy #LucasAndLuna Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
Most DTC brands obsess over creative and customer acquisition, but the real moat is hiding in the warehouse. We break down how a specific mid-sized home goods brand reduced delivery times by three days by shifting from centralized distribution to regional micro-fulfillment centers. This episode explores the operational shift that turns shipping speed into a silent retention engine, lowering churn without changing a single ad creative. #DTCMarketing #EcommerceGrowth #LogisticsStrategy #SupplyChainOptimization #FulfillmentCenters #CustomerRetention #ShopifyPlus #LastMileDelivery #OperationalExcellence #BusinessPodcast #FexingoBusiness #MarketingStrategy #ConsumerGoods #RetailOperations #ShippingSpeed #BrandLoyalty #EcommerceTips #LucasAndLuna 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.
