About this listen

 What if your growth problem isn’t performance — it’s relevance? In this episode, I break down what Dense Bean Salad Girl’s rise to 3 million followers and 125,000 subscribers reveals about how growth marketing actually works in 2026. No paid ads. No massive media budget. No interruptive campaigns. Instead, Violet Witchell entered a conversation already happening — about protein, fiber, affordability, and meal prep — and made herself genuinely useful. Her story reveals four shifts reshaping brand growth and customer acquisition today: • Enter the conversation already happening in your customer’s mind • Build trust in the margins — not just through campaigns • Design for identity without othering anyone • Recognize that your best marketers aren’t on your payroll If you’re a CMO or brand leader wondering why: – Customer acquisition costs are rising – Campaign performance feels harder to sustain – Discovery has fragmented – “General market” messaging isn’t landing This episode explains what’s changed — and what the new growth marketing playbook requires. Because in 2026, growth doesn’t come from being louder. It comes from being more relevant.
