04/10/25 • 30 min
Welcome back Product Bosses! What do you do when your business is restricted from running ads — but you still need to grow? That’s exactly the challenge Dr. Angie Krause is facing. As a telehealth veterinarian and founder of Boulder Holistic Vet, Dr. Angie sells CBD supplements and holistic products for pets. But with ad bans on hemp-related products and a big drop in SEO traffic, she’s feeling stuck and searching for a new path forward.
In this episode, I help Dr. Angie reimagine her content strategy, turning her casual podcast into a powerful funnel for trust and sales. We dig into how to structure messaging around pet health concerns — like cancer, allergies, and chronic inflammation — and how to position Dr. Angie as the go-to expert for pet owners seeking integrative care. Plus, we unpack how to repurpose blogs, email, and podcast content for maximum visibility.
If you’ve ever felt like the rules are stacked against your business, let this episode be your reminder: there’s always another way. Tune in for fresh ideas on how to build a magnetic brand, create content with purpose, and make marketing feel simple — even if ads aren’t an option.

682. What We’re Getting Wrong About Customers (And What to Do Instead)
Are you building your product-based business around what you want—or what your customers truly need? In this episode, I uncover one of the most common mistakes entrepreneurs make: creating products and marketing strategies without truly understanding the customer on a deeper level. If your sales feel slow, your messaging isn’t landing, or you’re feeling stuck in what to make next, this episode might just be your turning point.
I’ll walk you through a powerful shift: from product-centered to customer-centered thinking. From vague customer avatars to assumptions about who your buyer is, we’re breaking those patterns and diving into what really matters—your customer's needs, wants, desires, and even their secret “mmm” moments. Whether you’re selling candles, cookies, or skin cream, this episode helps you think like your customer and build a brand they can’t stop talking about.
Plus, I’ll share my 3-part Customer-Centered Blueprint—insight (not assumption), product development with the customer in mind, and marketing that mirrors back what your customers truly care about. You’ll also get real-life examples, mindset shifts, and action steps to start applying this TODAY. Ready to make your marketing easier and your business grow faster? Let’s get to work!
