When I started at BrewDog, every cool bar wanted to stock their beer. When I left 3 years later, no one did. This isn’t a BrewDog problem. It’s a question every founder has to contend with: “How do I manage my beloved indies when I go into the supermarkets.” innocent had the same problem, look up what happened when they almost went into McDonald’s (death threats although not from indie retailers!) - You need your early adopters to help get you off the ground - But if you want to scale, you know you’ll lose a chunk in the process - It happens to every brand that scales up My advice to scaling founders: > Accept it’s going to happen > Don’t mourn “being cool” > Help your indies where you can but accept you lose a lot of love when you go big > Embrace your new scaled up world (it’s got a whole bunch of new challenges!) Which other brands should I have included who have faced a backlash as they grew? --- ♻ Repost if you found this useful 😻 Give me a follow for more insights on challenger brand marketing

Whassup? In December 1999, Budweiser launched a campaign that would become a cultural phenomenon: "Whassup?" Inspired by Charles Stone III’s short film "True," the ads featured friends enthusiastically greeting each other with "Whassup?" while enjoying Budweiser and a game. This simple, authentic interaction resonated deeply, turning a casual greeting into a viral sensation. It wasn't just an ad—it was a reflection of genuine friendship and humor, sparking parodies and becoming a staple of pop culture. Winning top awards like the Cannes Lions Grand Prix, the campaign showcased the power of authenticity and simplicity in advertising. Years later, "Whassup?" remains a testament to the enduring impact of a great idea executed brilliantly. Cheers to the campaigns that transcend their purpose and become part of the cultural. 🍻 #Advertising #Marketing #Storytelling

Another major influencer making their way into the world of CPG. This is a great example of how making an incredible product can lead you into major success. TRUFF is a company that sticks to their core values and never strays away from making top notch products. Top quality Ingredients, sharp branding, and an essence of luxury, I can easily see why this partnership was a no brainer. Check out this post below from the Co-Founder of TRUFF.
Today marks a momentous chapter as we announce a partnership between TRUFF and SKKY Partners! What started as a thoughtful curation of food porn and saucy content, transformed into the fastest-growing hot sauce in the grocery channel. Since our founding in 2017, TRUFF has grown rapidly from a digitally native hot sauce brand to a dynamic food business with a growing suite of products sold online and in more than 20,000 stores. TRUFF’s ultimate growth hack is knowing what makes the brand unique and honing in on it to create moments that break the Internet. Kim Kardashian, SKKY Partners Co-Founder and Managing Partner, said, “TRUFF is exactly the kind of business that embodies what we were looking for when we founded SKKY – a next-generation brand with a deep, authentic connection with consumers and the potential for ongoing growth. Nick and Nick have single handedly brought truffle-infused products into the mainstream food scene and built a community around the brand that will continue to be key to its success going forward. We’re proud to be kicking off the SKKY portfolio with this investment.” In this new chapter, we are excited to blend both teams’ innovative spirit to bring to life a shared vision of establishing TRUFF as a staple in kitchens worldwide. Huge shoutout to the TRUFF Team and SKKY Team and everyone that has supported us since the beginning. 🔥🍾🎊📈

When you are a big brand like The Coca-Cola Company, You can just play around with your advertising. People actually care about the ad before buying a Coke can, so there is no need for performance marketing, as the sales are executed at the distribution level. In this ad, they prioritize emotional connections, such as those between people and pets. Their winning formula is to tell emotional stories to stay visible. :-) Nevertheless, it is a lovely film. #advertising #storytelling

An interesting read ! A great occasion to dive back into the successful launch of Haagen-Dazs in the UK. I was particularly interested in seeing the conscious role of distribution and price/promo in the launch strategy. We tend to wait for a strong distribution build to press « go » on the advertisement and count on % off promo to drive trial … they did the contrary and brillantly so. Prioritising equity over short-term sales paid off in the long term. https://lnkd.in/dGinqJFD

😜 Being a brand and spending money in any category is difficult, but spending money, especially during #AprilFools , is more of a miscellaneous expense to a brand. Think about all the time and work that goes into the strategy and the design for this one day, that as a joke. 😜 I’ve seen a lot of founders either say this is the worst day or that they’re really excited about what they saw on this day. This mixed sentiment among founders highlights the complexity of participating in April Fools' Day promotions for CPG brands. My favorite highlight 💚 from yesterday was seeing collaborations between brands which was some of the most interesting aspects this year, showcasing how brands can come together for creative and engaging campaigns. Some highlights from yesterday: ⬇ Grillo's Pickles x Califia Farms Graza x Gushers OLIPOP PBC x Pringles Nathans Hot Dogs x JetBlue (Ew) What is your take?
