Vox & Coin: Marketing Controversial Products with Curiosity
In this candid, hilarious, and thought-provoking episode, Jake and Dave crack open one of their wildest client stories yet about marketing products—yes, it involves adult diapers... for very consenting adults.
😳 When a staff member quit over the campaign and awkward conversations abounded, it sparked a bigger question every marketer, agency, and brand rep eventually faces: Can you ethically and effectively market a product you don’t personally agree with—or would never use yourself?
Along the way, we explore:
The surprising reality of niche consumer communities
Whether being outside the audience makes you a better marketer
Stories from Viagra-Cialis infused honey, political campaigns, and furry fandoms
The tension between stereotyping vs. nuanced marketing
What makes a brand truly rebellious (Liquid Death, Wendy’s Twitter, and more)
How to market to the heretics within your audience
This episode is a masterclass in uncomfortable truths, bold branding, and the messy magic of connecting with real humans—even when things get weird.
