I read a great book by Jon Gordon- The Coffee Bean and it was so motivating. When faced with adversity which one are you, a carrot, an egg, or a coffee bean? Let’s get out there and make a difference! #chg #weatherby #coffeebeancrew

Looking at 2024 Harris Poll Data collected by the Brewers Association will give you a strong actionable view of our market. The full presentation is linked below and I am going to break out some specific slides for commentary, but I suggest watching the whole presentation. 1. Craft is holding its own on occasions. We're 1 or 2 in 5 of the 10 tracked categories. 2. I believe craft can and should make a bigger push on the categories where it is currently number 2, and I am confident continued positioning will help these occasions. 3. Where we seem to need impact are there's first two metrics - at home and at a friend's house. These are signaling events. If people aren't choosing craft then it is probably a perception issue. The industry needs to tune up the effort of making craft a positive thing to bring over your friend's house or discover in your fridge. This means getting off the high horse marketing and focus much more on the fun, flavor and meaningful values the breweries hold. Think about it in terms of this interaction: "This Tropic Rocket looks awesome, can I have one?" "Absolutely. I went to a party they threw at Super Bar, and the owners were there. They are great people and they donate a ton of money and time to the local food shelter... also the beer is great!" https://lnkd.in/e5hkDEhK

Ooof. For anyone that wants to outstrip a competitor....this is a a best-in-class example on how to do it. Pick on the big guy and call them out for being a bit of a w*nker. in a less sweary nutshell...Take the big guy (something / someone / a business you're competing with) and you position against it. It means you're basking in the brand salience they already have so you can gain market share more quickly. Ben & Jerry's did it with Haagen Dazs. Virgin did it for a whopping 10 years against British Airways. If you want to be a challenger brand in your industry, give this a go...though maybe don't use avocados in your own ;-)

That does sound good

Yes, a vegetarian is heading to Houston for ATD next week. That's me (blame Debbie Richards for this). So, I won't be seeking those Texas steaks or BBQ (In my meat days, I always preferred the Memphis dry rub anyway)... Instead, I will be in town for some real talk. And, here's where my head is: L&D is broken. Badly. And we don't have time to keep tinkering. So, we need to engage in some real Houston-style talk. That's the way oil barons and cowboys like it, right? Come prepared to dispel the nagging myths of how to be skills-based, how to be 70-20-10, how to earn that seat at the table... Hint: L&D IS the table (thanks, Marc Steven Ramos). So everyone else needs to sit down. And skills-based? You already are (see below). Houston: L&D has a problem... and we need to talk. #ATDHOU24
