Frictionless Growth Marketing

Brand growth today depends on removing friction from your marketing and customer experience to attract and retain more of the people you want to serve.

Frictionless Growth Marketing is the podcast for marketers, business leaders, and founders who want to grow by eliminating the messaging, experience, and strategy gaps that quietly push customers away every single day.

Hosted by Sonia Thompson, Inclusive Growth and Customer Experience Strategist, the show breaks down how modern brands drive sustainable growth by designing frictionless customer journeys, building trust with identity-rich growth communities, and adapting to changing consumer expectations with clarity and confidence.

Each week, you’ll hear practical insights, real brand examples, and candid conversations with marketing leaders and subject-matter experts on:

  • Brand strategy that fuels long-term business growth in the age of modern marketing

  • Customer acquisition, retention, and loyalty in today’s market

  • How friction shows up across the customer journey — and how to remove it

  • Identity-driven marketing, cultural relevance, and belonging

  • What’s actually working now with today’s values-driven consumers

If you want to reach more of the people you’re meant to serve — and convert more of them — without relying on outdated formulas or brute-force tactics, Frictionless Growth Marketing will show you the new rules of modern marketing and growth.

Because when you remove friction, you remove barriers to growth — for your customers and for your business.
