When launching funnels, we tend to obsess over what the customer sees. But what they don’t see is the background, where things break, lawsuits start, or revenue quietly disappears. In this episode, I’m sitting down with Richard, Shockwave’s Chief Marketing Officer and the guy who double-checks every switch behind every campaign before it goes live. We’ll unpack the overlooked world of funnel infrastructure: policies, payment flows, affiliate setups, legal compliance, and QA protocols that most marketers ignore—until it’s too late. We aren’t talking about just fixing problems. It’s about designing launches to work under pressure. If you’re scaling a funnel and you’re not thinking like an operator, this conversation will change how you build from here on out.
