Running ads shouldn’t feel like throwing darts in the dark. Yet, despite testing creative, tweaking audiences, and adjusting budgets, something still feels off. You’re not alone—most strategies only scratch the surface of what truly connects with customers.

Brands Everywhere Are Winning With Emotion

Over 40+ brands have adopted a behavior-based marketing strategy. Here are their stories:

  • At Original Grain, we sell men’s watches, but over 50% of our customers are women—buying gifts for the men in their lives. With Sarah Levinger’s help, we’ve crafted messaging that speaks to both the gift buyer and the recipient, addressing their emotional needs. Don’t forget to focus on the buyer, not just the recipient!"

    Nate Lagos

    VP Marketing, Original Grain

  • "All I can say is, DANG! Sarah is the real deal. I've never met a marketing expert with her combination of EQ, research, and creativity. Every founder taking a product to market (CPG, SaaS, etc.) should book at least one consulting engagement with her. In one hour she helped me adjust our entire GTM strategy at Fueled. Unbeatable ROI."

    Sean Larkin

    Founder & CEO, Fueled

  • "The thing is a lot of people don't know how to perform creative analysis properly. Observations can be made. Patterns can be recognized but ultimately the 'why' behind them is still a mystery. That is, unless you're @SarahLevinger of course."

    Gold Tetsola

    CEO, Cyborg Marketer

  • "What even is 'consumer psychology'? I feel like there's so many facets of being human that psychology only gets you so far... Don't economics, affordability and culture have more of an effect on purchase behavior? Then I heard @SarahLevinger speak for 2 minutes and I'm a 🤡"

    Dylan Ander

    Founder & CEO, Heatmap

  • "If I'm ever in a creative rut.. and there's only one way to get out of it. I contact Sarah Levinger"

    Ash Melwani

    Co-Founder & CMO, Obvi

  • "I just had a call with @SarahLevinger to discuss storytelling and customer phycology. My mind is reeling. 🤯"

    Bryant Jaquez

    CMO, Bums & Roses

  • "The one mega added difference between a good creative strategist and a super sonic strategist like Sarah is: she knows what the people want long before they even know what they want!"

    Mike McLane

    8x Founder & Humanitarian Capitalist

  • "I've always followed Sarah's advice, resulting in a -64% CPA in some ad accounts!
