"Earth Month isn’t just another marker on the calendar; it’s a clarion call for introspection and action." - Kevin Sherman, CEO of Tractor Beverage Co.

❄️ Pros and cons of being a brand with a January peak ❄️ At The Cultured Collective - like most ferments and health-associated brands - we do well in January. No surprise. *Pros* 🎄 It’s a slightly less manic time for your stockists than Christmas so you stand a bit more chance of getting air-time and being replenished on shelf (if it’s a place with shelves). 🤗 Consumers are ready to make a change and more receptive to trying a new product or brand. 💰 Deals can be powerful as consumers look to make post-Christmas savings. *Cons* 😬 You are trying to manage stock ramp ups over the Christmas period, which is stressful. We had additional logistical challenges pre-Christmas which added to the stress but were thankfully sorted just in time. 👀 Most of your competitors are likely to be on deal at the same time (not so bad in an early stage category like this that has so much room to grow!). 🐻 You cannot hibernate. What would you add to the pros/cons list? All credit to Nicola Peters for getting The Cultured Collective to January in good shape for bumper sales 👏🏼 👏🏼 👏🏼 #healthyfood #newyearsresolution #fermentedfoods #fermentation #growthbusiness ___________________________ I am Co-founder of The Cultured Collective with the aforementioned legend Nicola Peters.

I do love this growing aspect for earnings communications - creating a digestible highlights reel showcasing the top level takeaways and celebrating wins from the quarter. But as a comms leader, once you start this - the expectations are set. So if and when earnings are less than expected or not great news, staying the course with this medium must remain to stay true to your intent of consistency and transparency in your communication strategy - Thoughts?

You will be amazed after reading how a single food #company turned out their business into a multi dollar company with their superb planning and business growth. Our story, Behrouz Biryani and Fasos, all of these brands are owned by a single company. Yes, and the name is Rebel Foods. It's a billion dollar corporation with a revenue of 900 crores. But why did they create so many brands and what's their story? Rebel Foods is the world's largest chain of internet restaurants. Basically cloud kitchens. But the founders of Rebel Foods didn't start their journey with Rebel Foods. It was actually Fasos. But Fasos wasn't able to grow due to high rent of prime locations, huge costs of setting up physical locations, etc. So, Jaydeep and Kalol started asking questions to their existing Fasos customers. And their first question was, have you ever visited a physical outlet of Fasos? And the response was shocking. 74% of their existing customers hadn't even seen an outlet of Fasos, let alone visited. And that is when they knew cloud kitchens were the future. And they doubled down on it and started Rebel Foods. But why did they start so many brands for different food items when they could have done it under the same brand name? See, you wouldn't be excited about a pizza launched by Starbucks, right? And that is exactly why they built so many brands for different food types so that they could tailor the experience for the customer and give them authentic vibes. This is actual business brilliance. Share this with a friend who wants to start their own restaurant or cafe someday. #businessgrowthstrategy #foodindustry #cloudkitchen #foodbusiness #foodandbeverage #foodandbeverageindustry #brandbuilding #brandawareness

Grateful + humbled + honored to announce my official partnership with ALDI USA. Well, they're not aware of the partnership. It's pretty one way. I like them, they don't respond to my emails... I even wrote them in German 🇩🇪 Nevertheless. Here's an Aldi meal plan that will ACTUALLY save you time and money so you can get that $14 drink while at a 5 star hotel on points. My wife and I came up with this a few weeks ago and have been loving it. We realized most of our meals consist of a meat, veggie, and potatoes/rice. We like to keep things simple. Whole foods. Instead of planning out 7 individual meals every week, our 7 day meal plan looks like this ⤵ 🥩 Meat: Chicken thighs 2x, Ground beef 3x, Pork 1x, Salmon 1x 🥕 Veggie: Brussel Sprouts 2x, Broccoli 2x, Carrots 1x, Zucchini 1x, Cabbage 1x 🥔 Starch: Sweet potatoes 2x, Gold potatoes 2x, Rice 2x, Butternut Squash 1x This is the base of our shopping. We'll pick up a few extra items: eggs, dairy, coffee, etc... But this is mostly it. We buy enough for dinner and lunch leftover. You can make this meal plan in <2 minutes. Then, each night, pick one thing from each category that sounds good together. This allows you to still meal plan AND eat what sounds good in the moment. For us, it has made shopping and planning easier, and we think it has cut down on buying unnecessary extra ingredients from when we've inevitably looked up recipes on Pinterest. Try it, tell me what you think. Meal planning saves money. How do you currently do it? Is your system better than mine? **Also - my wife GOT ME ALDI SWAG. I was hoping one of you would... but I knew I could count on her. __________________________________ 🖐 I'm about helping families save money, live family life to the fullest, and travel the world on points.
