Celebrity-owned options are definitely the new "flavor" on the menu. This trend is raising #BrandAwareness for premium coffee overall, but the staying power of these #brands will hinge on celebrities' commitment to their companies and marketing efforts. https://t.co/xsc4QkCBJp

#TippingFatigue is very real. QSRs & coffee shops now ask for 20-25% tips at checkout. Is it tech gaming consumer psychology or the true cost of #FoodServices? Likely both. But this shift may lead to fairer costs and sustainable profits. @FoodInstitute https://t.co/nJCFvIMPrH
It's exciting to see a major player entering the aluminum bottle and ROPP cap space. While the initial supply might be tight, I’m optimistic that this will pave the way for increased capacity in this format.
Thoughts?

Regardless of who our buyer is at @WanderingBearCo, our goal remains the same: Get cold brew into the cup. People buy #FoodAndBeverages across many channels and brands that don't realize this are missing opportunities to meet their customers' need-state. https://t.co/4y6FO51Iio
Entrepreneurs aren't risk takers; they're risk managers. Vision for market opportunity and a strong thesis on the best approach are key. Chaos is inevitable, but it should come from external forces, not internal drama. #Entrepreneurship#StartupAdvice
“Some people tell me that entrepreneurship should not be disciplined, but chaotic and unpredictable — and it is. But it is just in such situations where a framework to attack the problem in a systematic manner will be the most valuable.” — @BillAulet https://t.co/k8jHrRV8Wd
When Ben and I were at Columbia Business School in 2013 the lean #startup methodology and customer discovery were central to our entrepreneurial education. It was key to @WanderingBearCo's success back then and continues to be today. #Entrepreneurship https://t.co/BMmPSD3qD3
This makes sense. But while #EGrocery offers many convenience benefits to consumers, it's not always the most cost-effective. In this inflationary environment, I think it's vital for grocers to make it clear how and where customers are saving. #CX https://t.co/1188ank5yw
I love to read that Paul and Cranston getting their hands dirty in the company-building of this brand. With "celebrity packaged goods" that so often is the downfall. Passion and real involvement, if sustained, give #brands an #authenticity others can't touch. @Entrepreneur
Paul and Cranston's Dos Hombres, which means "two men'' in Spanish, launched in 2019. The business partners use a leadership approach honed over years on the set of 'Breaking Bad.'

If you were at a WeWork in 2014 you may have overheard Ben and me saying things like, "we don't believe in titles here." We were such noobs. We've learned. Job titles and descriptions aren't just necessary--they're craved by the team. #Startups@HarvardBiz https://t.co/r8sS0RCW8L
Price sensitivity among #consumers is very real and something we all understand at a personal level. Yet the market is many different things; the headwinds in one sector of the consumer ecosystem can create opportunities in another. #Inflation@axios https://t.co/cISFhT6VmD
Not every year or set of market conditions is going to be ripe to push for scale. As much as you want to bat
1000, that's just not life or business. The core principles outlined below here are excellent thought starters for #entrepreneurs looking to build longevity. #Startups
If you're in the #BeverageIndustry and you're not following these concepts and trends, tune in. These will have a major impact on how the emerging generation of consumers will discover and consume drinks. #FoodAndBeverage@RB_magazine https://t.co/32Ou1p4OQJ
Fostering a #CompanyCulture where teammates feel valued starts with visibility. Leaders, it's on us to intentionally set the norms: default video on, unmute meetings, regular recognition, and intentional in-person connections. #Leadership@gamedevdotcom https://t.co/HKDGcBlr6m
