Introducing David Robinson, Global Brand Ambassador at Franklin & Sons, and this week’s incredible #IndustryInspiration ! 💙🍾 Thus far, David has had a wonderful career in the hospitality sector, from working in bar leadership roles across the UK and Australia whilst maintaining regular appearances at cocktail competitions, including the World Class GB Semi Finals in 2016, to becoming a full-time brand ambassador with Pernod Ricard in 2019. David now finds himself at Franklin & Sons and is the Global Brand Ambassador.    Telling us more about his role, David explains, “I am responsible for developing international brand advocacy platforms, implementing them in key global markets alongside local commercial and distribution teams, working with key contacts in market to ensure their success. As a branch of the Marketing team, I work to ensure the brand’s growth and recognition by utilising my experience and knowledge of the industry to develop our advocacy strategies, establishing and guiding areas focused on the trade.”   Speaking on his love for the brand, David shares, “The thing that I love most about the brand itself, is our commitment to bartenders and the on trade. Franklin & Sons was established in the on-trade, and we work closely with bartenders to keep a finger on the pulse of industry trends and movements, helping our brand direction to meet and support these.   “This year, we have had the pleasure of launching ‘In the Mix’, our brand-new bartender advocacy programme that celebrates and empowers the industry, providing educational tools for bartenders at all levels as well as opportunities for them to grow their careers.”    The future looks bright for David as he shares his short and long-term goals, “In every role I have held in my career, the constant goal has always been to learn something new every day, so that I can develop and progress into the next chapter of my career, whatever that may be. My focus for the year ahead lies in successfully establishing ‘In the Mix’ in the UK alongside our local brand team and taking our learnings into the second year of the programme. “With that success will come the longer-term goal of successfully establishing the programme in our wider markets to further promote Franklin & Sons’ commitment to bartenders across the world.”   To conclude, David offers some words of advice to fellow hospitality professionals, “The advice I always give to my fellow hospitality professionals is simple: never stop learning, always be proud of what you do and create environments where ideas can be shared.     “As an addition to this, you should never be shy about believing in yourself and your ability to grow. If you have an ambition to try something new, be it a cocktail competition, the creation of new drinks for a menu, bringing a new product to market or even aspirations for a promotion in your area of expertise, don’t let a fear of failure stop you.”

This past year has been one laced with growth. It's been one year since I joined Pernod Ricard and certainly, the first couple of months came with a potpourri of emotions: moving from settling into my new role to self-doubt, from pushing myself to eventually getting a hang of the demands of the role. Joining at a time when the organisation was going through a series of transformations, it appeared my teething phase lingered longer than I'd anticipated. Struggling to find my rhythm meant I occasionally doubted my abilities and contemplated throwing in the towel a couple of times. To get past this stage, two things worked for me. Firstly, in my subconscious, I was convinced that if I could endure, be consistent, push myself, and not give up, I'd come out stronger. Lastly, I had the support and cheering of those that mattered the most; my family and colleagues. Munirat Yahaya was that one person who kept believing in me. In fact, she opened my mind to cracking what I had thought impossible, and this was the beginning of me getting my groove back. I also enjoyed the immense support of my line manager - thank you, Bode Omosagba, for seeing the potential in me and for providing the required support all the way. I'm elated that the efforts I put into turning things around didn't go unnoticed as I clinched two awards at the FY23 company retreat and awards ceremony. Having won the CEO award and the "Deliver through collaboration" award, I'm motivated to continue to give my utmost best to contribute to the growth of the business. As I continue to put in the work, I'm excitedly looking forward to what the future holds. #workanniversary #resilience #appreciation

Congratulations Direct 60 List honoree Cristina Marinucci, Global Head of Shopper Excellence, Mondelēz International! The Direct 60 List honors top executives mastering the business of brands. Leveraging technology, innovation, and next-generation strategies, these leaders drive growth and position their brands for success in a consumer-centric, data-driven world. You can see the full Direct 60 List here:  https://lnkd.in/gyJxNYFa Cristina told us, "People have been talking about personalization for a while, but it's less about personalization and more about tailoring the message and medium to the time, the need, the occasion and the place. I believe building connected experiences will be the key to success over the next few years. People have definitely shifted a lot of their behaviors and routines. They are going into stores now more for experiences versus digital, which in our categories, has focused on convenience. It's really interesting to see how they've swapped roles in that way and we as brands need to reinvent accordingly, both in store to engage them and online to disrupt them." Meet The Direct 60 List Honorees in person at The Direct 60 Forum on October 10th in New York City! More than a gala and less than a conference, this one-of-a-kind event features thoughtful peer discussions, elegant tasting experiences, inspiring acceptance speeches, red carpet moments, incredible giveaways (five star hotels!), curated receptions and VIP dinners - there are few evenings that can match The Direct 60 Forum.

In our conversation with Mondelēz International's Michelle Deignan, and our co-founder, Heather Wheeler, at Brand Innovators Super Bowl, so many golden nuggets surfaced. Some of our favorite moments from the conversation were: "If you don’t get things wrong, you are not pushing enough” "As marketers, the most important thing we can do is drive consistency. How do you continue to reinforce what's magic about your brand" "Your employees are your gateway to your consumers, if they are not excited about your brand and how you are talking about it, no one else is going to be too" Here's the full interview! https://lnkd.in/emjFST4k
