Gearing up for St. Patrick’s Day! According to WalletHub, 174% more beer and 153% more spirits are sold on St. Patrick’s Day than usual. To meet spikes in demand, manufacturers need technology that enables them to plan for—and adjust to—the increased production demand. That’s where an #MES comes in. With its ability to bolster quality management, standardize production, and enable businesses to adapt production based on real-time demand, manufacturers and consumers alike can enjoy a smooth St. Patrick’s Day celebration.

Hat tip 🎩 to great packaging design ⤵ "You can't stand out if you fit in!" Packaging design must be impactful to the consumer. If your packaging doesn't jump off the shelf, our guy's got a redesign that'll knock your socks off. Let us know and we'll set up a chat!

Why does Molson Coors dedicate resources to designing displays? Because they work. They're proven to sell more beer, growing incremental dollars and driving real-time purchases. And they can be effective in big-box stores and small independents, moving beer with cart-stopping appeal.

In-store displays play an important role. What I know for sure is: * They build both awareness and consideration among shoppers. * They remove products from the shelf, functioning like in-store billboards. * They trigger higher sales, primarily from regular shelf placements. What else?

Presentation. That’s what amazes me when I visit Buc-ee's. In case you live under a rock, Buc-ee’s is to convenience stores what Home Depot is to hardware. Seeing one from the interstate, you might wonder what in the world they’re doing to attract so many people. First, lower gas prices, because their business plan is to get you inside where they make real money. Walk through the door, and Buc-ee’s is one part carnival, one part restaurant, and one part clean restrooms. It might not sound like much on paper, but once inside, you instantly notice the store is well-lit, the merchandise is brightly colored, and the staff members are ultra-efficient and ultra-friendly. I never understood why people would ever buy a Coca-Cola t-shirt (just to advertise Coke), but the same is going on with the Buc-ee's brand. It’s on hats, t-shirts, mugs, and yes, stuffed beavers. I behoove any business owner to study this model because often, presentation is everything. #BUC-EEs #trustdale #deepthoughts #productpresentation #dalecardwell #merchandising #cocacola #coke

With the fourth generation of the Reid family at the helm, Crosby's Stores (Reid Stores, Inc.) is in growth mode as it reimages stores with a new logo and color scheme and redesigns sites to bring its Crosby’s Pizza and Subs foodservice program front and center. 🍕 Read this story and more in the August Issue of CStore Decisions: https://lnkd.in/e_dsRY68

I can't tell you how pleased I was to see this post, after 6 months in the making, working with Sam, Oli and the fabulous team at Attic Brew Co. Thanks for the feedback guys, loving being part of the journey, and so excited to see how your growth plans come to fruition. I know you will be ace! Having reflected on this over the last few days, for me, put simply all this hard work comes down to a few key things: Empowering and engaging your team, creating an amazing culture and encourages everyone to go that extra mile (deeply commercial!) Also advising on the appropriate team structure for the future to enable growth. Giving Business Owners & Founders the opportunity and time to focus 'on' the business (always hard when the day job is seemingly relentless!) Supporting them to do this is critical and varies individually but I love being able to 'dip in' to different areas with teams where they need more support, people, commercial, operational in particular. Bringing structure and clarity to how the business operates, and making it more efficient (boring I know, but I cant emphasise how important this is to grow sustainably!) Creates a strong and exciting strategic plan 😀 If anyone would like to know more, feel free to get in touch ⛅ Happy Monday, Em x #clearingclouds #smallbusinesssupport #businessgrowth #partnership

🙌 Blacksticks is Back 🙌 3 little words…joyous to say, easy to write ✍️ but not so simple to achieve just 3 months post fire. High performance is often talked about and everyone has their own definition, for me it’s performance that consistently exceeds an expected performance level. That is the performance level I’ve seen from our team these past few weeks, each week setting a new bar. The result is that I can have an interview with The Grocer to share that Blacksticks is Back. 💥 Not only is is back, it’s coming back with a bang, because we haven’t lifted our foot off the gas and the plans we have to deliver category growth remain and we are going to execute them. 💪 Sneak peek in the article below but I’ll be sharing much more about how we are going to deliver this and how you can be part of the movement in the coming weeks. 🤓 🙌 Blacksticks is Back 🙌 https://lnkd.in/eFrqkCYS #Blacksticks #CheeseSetFree #Butlerness #HighPerformingTeam
