About the Podcast

More Than A Brand: CX Podcast
Creating an experience that your customers never want to leave.
The "People's CXO" for scaling founders ready to stop being the bottleneck.

You’ve built a fierce brand and cleared the six-figure mark—now comes the hard part. As your business scales, the manual "duct-tape" systems that got you here are starting to red-line. Every new lead feels like a threat to your schedule, and revenue is leaking through the gaps in your customer journey.

Welcome to More Than a Brand, hosted by Lindsay Tramel-Jones, the People’s CXO and the CEO of Fierceified Creative & Consulting. This isn’t a podcast about "vibes" or vague marketing ideas. This is a masterclass in Customer Experience (CX) Engineering.

Each episode, we strip away the manual hustle and dive into the proprietary RISE Method—Research, Innovate, Strategize, and Evolve—to help you build a business that can hold 10x the volume without 10x the effort. We move past surface-level customer service and into the deep work of Infrastructure Integrity, where we turn your brilliant visions into documented, automated, and soul-backed systems.

We explore:

The Diagnostic MRI: Using data and FlowLab to find exactly where your journey is breaking.

Systemic Command: How to move from execution to observation, leading a machine that delivers your promise while you sleep.

The Rituals of Retention: Engineering loyalty so powerful that your customers never want to leave.

If you’re ready to stop patching processes and start engineering flow, you’re in the right place. You’ve already done the hard part by building the vision; now, let’s build the machine.

Stop being the engine. Become the architect. This is More Than a Brand.
