In this premiere episode of The CMO Podcast with Fexingo, hosts Lucas and Luna dissect the surprising turnaround of Pop-Tarts — a brand that went from stale to essential in the breakfast aisle. Lucas reveals how Kellogg's CMO pivoted from product innovation to cultural relevance, boosting sales by 12% year-over-year after years of decline. Together they unpack the strategy behind leveraging nostalgia, limited-edition drops, and social listening to re-engage Gen Z. Lucas explains the '90-10 rule' of brand investment — 90% on proven channels, 10% on experiments — and why it worked for Pop-Tarts. Luna challenges whether this is a one-off or a blueprint for other legacy brands. The conversation sets the tone for the show: grounded in real numbers, skeptical of buzzwords, and focused on what actually moves the needle for marketing leaders.
