To all of the small, local brand founders out there bootstrapping your way through a challenging market environment, and wondering how to grow effectively… Look around you for inspiration, and watch the brands that are succeeding. 👉Should you hire a broker or a sales leader? Maybe, if you can afford it, and you have enough scale to warrant it. 👉Should you expand from DTC, into retail? Probably, if you are ready. 👉Should you expand slowly, with the right retailers, at a pace that works for you, that you can afford, and are able to support yourself with demos and merchandising? Yes. Some things never change. 20+ years ago when I was an entry-level store level buyer at Whole Foods Market , the brands that did the best in my store were the ones who came in every week and demoed their product. 👉A lot of those small local brands that I saw demoing back then went on to become household names, like Vitamin Water 👉It works. It will always work. 👉If you think your retailer/broker/distributor is EVER going to do as good of a job as YOU can at evangelizing your own product, you’re wrong. At Pod Foods we work with a LOT of small local-scale brands. There are some of them that get this, and others who think they are going to become multi-millionaires just because the buyer at a cool retailer decided to approve their product. Getting onto the shelf is the easy part. When I was a buyer I approved 1000s of products, and I also discontinued 1000s more when they didn’t sell. Products that taste good and get demoed consistently sell, and they don’t get discontinued. The Lotion Company is going to grow and succeed, because of how they are approaching their growth…I’m calling it right now. If you want a blueprint of how win at retail the old fashioned way, this is it.

Not going to lie, I'm really rather excited for February 1st. GlobalLogic has invited me back to host a panel discussion looking at sponsorship vs mentorship, the importance of expanding the definition of what a good leader looks like and how women can strategically place themselves in positions to seek out and act on career-defining opportunities. I will be joined by Geraldine M., Laura Bouchard [she/her/hers], Julia Bell and one of my favourite voices in the DEI space, Claire Thomas. If you're a senior professional looking for a networking group that centres the female experience, You've Got Space could be the group for you: https://lnkd.in/emCFPdtZ This isn't about giving women a leg up at the expense of men. It's about recognising where unnecessary obstacles and double standards have been placed on people who don't present as men. And giving women the space to talk about their experiences and share their learnings amongst peers. As a good friend of mine once said, "I'm not looking for any hand outs, I just want you to move out of my way" And that's what we're going to be talking about. Removing the obstacles and redefining what good looks like, so women can take up space, take that seat at the table and be unapologetically themselves in the workforce. Oh, and there will be the opportunity to get a free professional headshot too! What's not to love 🧡 #youvegotspace #YGS #mentorship #sponsorship #careergrowth #leadership

Last month, I attended the World Private Label Trade Show in Amsterdam. ➡ For those unfamiliar, private label refers to products manufactured by one company but branded and sold by another. During the event, I engaged with numerous F&B manufacturers and suppliers, all with the goal 🎯 of answering one key question: How accessible is private labeling for visitor attractions ❓ The answer hinges largely on minimum order quantities (MOQs). Here are 5️⃣ critical factors that determine MOQs: 1.    Production line efficiency 2.    Manufacturer's own MOQs 3.    Operational considerations 4.    Customization requirements 5.    Storage and logisitics 📌 Understanding these factors is crucial for any visitor attraction considering private labeling. ➡ Are you ready to develop your own private label product for your park? I can help you: ✔ Find the right manufacturer ✔Negotiate the MOQs ✔Co-create a unique F&B product Connect with me today to start the ride! 🎢🍽
