In this episode of "We Fixed It, You're Welcome," the team tackles Duolingo's marketing success. They explore how the language-learning app's chaotic, culturally-relevant social media presence has captivated audiences worldwide.

The discussion delves into Duolingo's freemium model, rapid content creation process, and the trust placed in young talent like Zaria Parvez. The panel examines how Duolingo's marketing aligns with its gamified product experience and analyzes the financial impacts of their strategy.

They also consider the challenges of sustaining this approach long-term and what other brands can learn from Duolingo's success. The conversation touches on the importance of authenticity, brand voice, and adaptability in modern marketing.Duolingo's Marketing Success
