Maven Consulting

This is Jess Windell 💥 Founder of Maven Consulting, and I think she is one of the best (if not the best) PR Pros in the CPG game. We first met on January 3rd, 2022 (when she cold DMd me to meet and explore how to collaborate) and it has been one of the best relationships I have fostered since starting Sircle Media in 2012. I am super grateful for our partnership across multiple brands, but more importantly for the friendship we have established. I have a tremendous amount of respect and admiration for her. I am a big believer that you should work with someone who really knows their craft, knows how to spot the crap and shysters in their space, and who focuses on a specific category, making them not just great at what they do, but excellent in the industry your brand is in. Jess is exactly that! I just listened to her drop knowledge bombs on the Startup CPG podcast and felt compelled to sit down and write this post as soon as I got to my desk. She is so on point, has such solid energy, and is always hustling, both at work AND in enjoying life to the fullest. We all need more people like Jess in our lives. Listen to this podcast, connect with her on LinkedIn, and thank me later. (LINK IN COMMENTS) ALSO: Props to Grace Kennedy and Daniel Scharff for bringing this awesome newswire service (and podcast) to the masses. They really contribute a lot to our community and deserve some recognition for the work they do. #cpg #cpgindustry #PR

This is hands down the most-terrifying thing I have done in my career. 🥴 Terrifying because of how much of myself and my mind I’ve poured into it, and now I’m about to share it with the world… Next week, I'm *officially* unveiling the first-ever DIY PR course, toolkit and consulting package tailored specifically for emerging CPG brands. Introducing: Catalyst by Maven 🚀 It's my no-bullshit approach to PR, in a format you can actually use. It distills nearly two decades of insights, strategies, resources and tools into a comprehensive toolkit designed to empower founders, marketers and PR-rookies to take the reins of their brand's PR journey, without spending boku-bucks on an agency, before they're ready. Plus, you can even get custom support and consulting time with the Mavens. 👩🏼💻 Why now, you ask? It's simple: I've always wanted to help startup, founder-led brands... but over the last four years, I have had to turn away 99% of them, because they’re not coming to us with the right amount of activity/news, resources, and team members to truly thrive in the complex PR landscape of today. And I am, frankly, tired of hearing stories about bad experiences with agencies who take on a brand that isn't ready for them. (Can I get an AMEN?) 🙏🏼 That said... Maven Consulting remains a robust, full-service agency for breakthrough consumer brands who we’ll continue to scream about from the rooftops. This new offering is simply our way of extending a helping hand to more brands, especially those just starting their journey. For a sneak peek and to secure early access (plus a VIP discount!), check out the video below and click here to get on the list: https://lnkd.in/g4rgd6ik I’m thrilled to share this labor of love with you all. Stay tuned!
