Shaun Brandt is Co-founder of Oddit, a CRO solution for direct-to-consumer brands wanting to increase their conversion and brand loyalty. He is an experienced entrepreneur and a Co-founder of Kulin, where he helps DTC e-commerce brands scale revenue through smart strategy, Google ads, paid social, email/SMS, and creative. Shaun is an Investor at Triple Whale and the Founder of Nowhere Else Inc. Previously, he was a Partner for Wilfred's, Partner and Creative Director for MAST Hair, Co-founder and Creative Director for Versett, Co-founder of Federal Moto, and Principal for ONST Creative. In this episode… Traditional web design agencies often follow complex processes filled with client calls, feedback loops, and data-heavy analysis. These methods focus on surface-level metrics rather than practical user experience improvements, leading to bloated costs and underwhelming results. How can businesses streamline website optimization while achieving higher sales and better user engagement? Shaun Brandt, a design and branding expert, has developed a no-nonsense approach to website optimization that focuses on practical UX improvements without relying on data analytics. Instead of drawn-out processes, his brand offers one-way audits where brands submit their website pages and receive a red-marked version pinpointing UX flaws and a fully redesigned page. Shaun emphasizes the importance of clarity over cleverness in website messaging, ensuring users immediately understand a product's value and how to purchase it. He also highlights simple, actionable changes — like improving button placement and reducing clutter — that can significantly boost conversions. In this episode of Inspired Insider Podcast, Dr. Jeremy Weisz interviews Shaun Brandt, Co-founder of Oddit, about his unconventional approach to website optimization. Shaun shares how Oddit has scaled to over 10,000 website audits, the common UX mistakes that hurt conversions, and how brands can improve sales with small but strategic changes. He also discusses the importance of clear messaging, the role of free trials in client acquisition, and why sometimes less data leads to better results.
