Scaling a consumer packaged goods (CPG) business is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you’re going to get. There are so many options on how you can go-to-market and they all look shiny, delicious and different. But, what are the real opportunities? And the real pitfalls?
There are more than 20,000 new food and drink products launched every year and the go-to-market strategy for each can just be like choosing a goodie from a mixed box of chocolates, too much choice, unless you know what you’re doing. Of the new products launched every year, unfortunately many fail. I don’t want you to be one of those. In this episode of Foodpreneur with Chelsea Ford, a quick fire final episode of Season 10, I help you know what to choose so you get the best results possible.
Listen to find out:
