I'm really excited about this job opening... Great opportunity and boy do we have a lot to talk about with this one... Chowly, Inc. has re-built a strong foundation for lead generation in the past few months. We've taken a modern approach (modeled after Chris Walker's processes). So don't think about old school B2B demand gen. Think about the pillars for #Demand Creation, Capture, and Conversion. To be frank, very few in the restaurant tech space have adopted this and we've been having a lot of success applying these concepts creating some lead efficiency numbers I've never seen at Chowly. Not even during peak pandemic. Tom L. and I have got the beginnings set and looking to pass the baton to someone to take these things to the next level. You'll be setup for success on day 1. Whether it be content from Refine Labs or Pavilion (shout out to Sam Jacobs for convincing me to join - already seeing a great return and learnings there), we are eternal learners at Chowly and excited to add this position. Our Core Values are non-negotiable. They're plastered on our website, in every Town Hall, every performance review, and we do what we say we're going to do. Tag people in the comments who you think might be a fit, DM me personally, or reach out to our amazing Head of People, Jessica Warren. #Hiring #DemandGeneration #Marketing

If you operate a commercial kitchen you’ll know that fat-clogged drains not only inconvenience you and your business but can seriously impact the wider community too. But trying to prevent oil and grease from entering drains in restaurant, café or takeaway kitchens is often a futile task due to the hectic nature of food service, so what can be done about the blockages they cause? To solve this common problem, industry professionals choose DrainDose from SEKO, a virtually zero-maintenance system that is fitted beneath the sink and periodically doses enzymes into the drain line, breaking down fat before it can accumulate, solidify and create a blockage.

Do you produce or bottle wine 🍇 in the European Union or supply the market from elsewhere? If so, you really need to know about the strict new labeling rules in just two months’ time! You will need to provide the most accurate and up-to-date ingredient information meaning that static, pre-printed barcodes may no longer suffice. See our blog for expert information on this new rule and its implications for EU wine producers and those who supply the European market. https://bit.ly/46kBE9S #markemimaje #blog #regulations #wine #beverage #labelling

Recently, I penned a post about the astounding success of the latest '#Barbie' movie, pondering whether it was due to brilliant marketing genius or some other factor that attracted such massive crowds to the theaters. Many of my colleagues from comm and #marketing point it as an example of a successful marketing strategy. However, alongside success stories, we also have tales of failure - the saga of #BudLight, the largest beer brand in the US, which chose the wrong marketing strategy. The brewing reported a 10.5% decline in revenue during the April-to-June quarter compared to the previous year. For the first time in over two decades, it lost its position as America's top-selling beer, slipping to second place in June, trailing behind Mexican lager Modelo Especial. During the same period, Bud Light's sales plummeted by 26.5%, while Modelo's sales saw a significant increase of 13.5%. Bud Light's market share dropped to 6.8%, while Modelo held a robust 8.7% share. As a consequence of this market loss, the company had to make tough decisions, resulting in layoffs that affected corporate and marketing roles in various U.S. offices, including St. Louis, New York, and Los Angeles. Two marketing executives, including the vice-president of marketing, were put on leave. The lesson learned from this story is that not every fancy and modern idea will bear fruit if you forget to truly understand your customers. A failure to comprehend your target audience can lead to dire consequences for even the most prominent brands.
