SUSCRIBE TO OUR NEWSLETTER: https://the505podcast.ac-page.com/rock-reportWhat’s up, Rock Nation! Today we’re joined by Marshal Crews — the founder of Tamed Psychotic, a drop-based clothing brand doing $100K in 30 minutes without spending a dollar on ads. At 17, Marshal was homeless. Now, he’s built one of the most exciting underground streetwear brands online. In this episode, we dive into how he turned personal pain into creative fuel, why scarcity is the secret behind his brand’s success, and what every creator needs to know about building hype, community, and a movement without paid marketing.Check out Marshal here:https://www.instagram.com/marshalcrews/https://www.youtube.com/ ⁨@marshallcrews_⁩  The Creator Pricing Guide - The No BS Guide to Pricing Your Creative ServicesCoupon Code: ROCKNATION10 gets you $10 off at checkout for the bouldershttps://courses.thecreatorcoach.com/pricing-guideOur FREE 5 positioning tips download:https://the505podcast.courses/5positioningtipsLearn the 6 Questions to ask on any discovery call (FREE Download):https://the505podcast.courses/6questionsfordiscoverycallJoin our Discord! https://discord.gg/xgEAzkqAvsCOP THE BFIGGY "ESSENTIALS" SFX PACK HERE: https://courses.thecreatorcoach.com/BFIGGYSFXPACKKG Presets Vol. 1https://www.kostasgarcia.com/store-1/p/kglightroompresetsKostas’ Amazon Storefront:https://amzn.to/3GhId2515% OFF Prism Lens FX with code: KOSTAS15https://bit.ly/42sNdejChase’s Totality LUT pack:https://www.chasealexanderfilm.com/color/totalitylutpackTimestamps: 0:00 - Trailer0:31 - Intro1:08 - One handed crack1:35 - Going all in on clothing4:05 - Why clothing came naturally after success in fitness8:42 - Turning a messy past into a movement12:49 - The unseen hours behind every viral drop16:58 - Starting Tamed Psychotic out of necessity, not money21:03 - Why he refuses to run ads and prioritizes scarcity25:32 - Email is outdated — SMS is his main channel29:36 - Supreme’s playbook: build a world, not a product33:42 - Scarcity vs. upsetting customers — the trade-off38:12 - Behind the scenes: broken supply chains and production chaos42:41 - How he preps for a drop and ships 1000s of orders47:00 - Discord backfired — managing a community is hard51:20 - The content loop: obsessing over every touchpoint55:48 - How he drives sales through storytelling, not ads59:59 - People just don’t understand the grind1:04:07 - The mental toll of growth and pressure to keep going1:08:27 - Deep childhood stories that shaped the brand1:12:48 - The closet moment that changed his mindset forever1:16:58 - Chasing the next challenge instead of the money1:21:31 - The emotional highs of customer support wins1:25:47 - Always evolving the creative and product1:29:54 - The community and brand come before profits1:34:07 - Why the goalpost keeps moving — and that’s okay1:38:34 - The power of world-building and creative direction1:42:45 - Obsession, late nights, and why he still edits everythingIf you liked this episode please send it to a friend and take a screenshot for your story!
