Supplement Marketing for Scaling DTC Brands
This show helps nutritional supplement brands scale to 8 and 9 figure businesses and make a bigger social impact.
Bobby Hewitt, is the founder of Creative Thirst, a supplement marketing agency that has helped dietary supplement brands grow for over 13 years. He’s built a framework around how people buy supplements. Because, people don't buy supplements the way they buy other products, and if you market your supplement brand like a regular e-commerce store, you're leaving money on the table.
This is the show for supplement brand founders and in-house marketing teams who want to scale their direct-to-consumer sales without scaling their team.
If you run a supplement, functional food, nutraceutical, or beauty brand selling direct to consumers, the rules of marketing are different for you. This podcast will provide tips, strategies, supplement trends, and ecommerce growth hacks, for entrepreneurs, owners, founders, CEOs, marketing VPs, and online marketers of supplements, vitamins, peptides, pet supplements, and skin care products.

Most supplement brands spend their marketing budget trying to create desire. But here's the problem with that. The desire is already there. Your prospect already wants better sleep, more energy, a healthier gut. They've wanted it for a long time.
So if the desire exists and they're still not buying, the question isn't how do you make them want it more. The question is what's killing the desire they already have. In this episode, I'll break down the one insight behind three of the biggest supplement exits of the last decade. OLLY, SmartyPants, and Goli each solved a different desire killer: identity friction, bad format experience, and category fatigue. Understanding which one is suppressing desire in your market is one of the most valuable diagnostics a supplement brand can run. This episode shows you how.
