Scaling an e-commerce brand isn't just about getting more sales—it's about increasing profits without driving up costs and complexity. Many brands hit a wall where growth starts feeling expensive, with ad costs rising and margins shrinking. The challenge is finding ways to optimize operations, build a loyal customer base, and create new revenue streams that don't rely solely on constant customer acquisition. The brands that break through find smarter, more sustainable ways to grow—focusing on retention, pricing strategy, and efficiency instead of just chasing more traffic. Jesse Kay is the founder and CEO of Vyber Media, a performance marketing agency that specializes in helping eight and nine-figure brands unlock scalable, high-margin digital growth. With over a decade of entrepreneurial experience, Jesse has also hosted a successful podcast where he interviewed renowned business leaders such as Jack Dorsey and Gary Vaynerchuk. Today, Jesse shares his expertise on the power of mastering the fundamentals of email, SMS, and automation in e-commerce marketing. Stay tuned!

With Data Privacy Day on the horizon (January 28th!), Meg emphasizes the importance of data transparency in crafting a delightful consumer-grade healthcare experience.Meg offers valuable insights throughout the conversation. She advocates how she and her team have found success in designing for the 'off moments', allowing their users to disengage when they need to and re-engage easily on their own terms. She also emphasizes the importance of allowing users to switch their focus, whether it's from activity level to sleep patterns. These strategies maintain long-term engagement.Meg also shares advice for listeners who aim to improve their own practices. Intensive user involvement, maintaining a beginner's mindset, and practicing patience forms the crux of successful design.

But if you craft an experience designed for the off moments, where it's okay for it to take a back seat for a while, people can re-engage when they're ready. You keep that longitudinal engagement over time.” – Meg Dryer—Time Stamps *(01:22) Meg's Background*(05:40) What is Evidation?*(08:04) Capturing the data from your lived experience*(11:46) The sensitivity of health data*(13:27) Solving the tension between data privacy and design*(18:26) Evidation's superpower*(20:17) Redesigning the healthcare experience*(22:47) Lessons for others looking to redesign their app*(26:12) How to maintain user engagement all year long*(31:03) Rapid Fire Questions—LinksConnect with Meg Dryer on LinkedInCheck out EvidationConnect with Tom Butta on LinkedInCheck out the Airship Website

Ben speaks with David Hixon, Executive Director, Consumer Business and Lending Marketing Strategy and Execution at Ally, a leading digital financial services company. They discuss the ways in which Ally engages with their customers, from the first introductory communication, to why they build relationships before selling on products, to the hyper-personalized experiences they provide on their website and app. They also talk about the challenges to consumer marketing today, especially in the financial services space, how Ally collects and utilizes zero-party data, the importance of retaining your loyal customers, and why success is building relationships with the people around you.   Topics discussed: How Ally centers their marketing efforts on building relationships and trust through conversational communication, and why it's important to them to wait two months before trying to sell on a new product. The challenges to consumer marketing, especially in the financial services industry, when customer behavior and sentiments are changing daily. How the marketing team is structured, and how it sits traditional marketers alongside analysts and statisticians to have the "trifecta of what you would want for a good marketing strategy." Why Ally has retention rates in the high 90%, and why customers of multiple business lines have lower attrition, higher balance growth, and more engagement. The challenges to consumer marketing, including finding the right product for the right people, and the “conversational choreography” needed to make sure the right customer is getting the right message at the right time. A behind-the-scenes look at how Ally leverages the data they have about customers to drive its hundreds of trigger campaigns and to create 6,000 unique variations of Ally.com to highly personalize their customers' experiences. The excitement around using zero-party data to drive better customer experiences through hyper-personalization, and how Ally gathers that data through, for example, their online savings account buckets. Advice for young marketers, including understanding how important data is to marketing efforts, and how success is about building relationships with the people you work with.
